foster city / san mateo

Edlyn Yuen: Ride your bike here along the marshlands!

Edlyn Yuen: Try their delicious soup dumplings (xiao long bao!). Their BBQ meats are excellent.

Edlyn Yuen: Cozy Indian fusion restaurant in the middle of San Mateo.

Edlyn Yuen: Sachi's serves traditional Hawaiian food. I personally love their spam musubis, and they have so many varieties. Also, try their tuna poke - it's freshly made at the supermarket.

Edlyn Yuen: Long lines, but they move quickly. Worth it! Try the garlic ramen.

Edlyn Yuen: Clean Chinese grocery store. Last time I was here, they had a class to teach kids how to make Doraemon lunch boxes.

Edlyn Yuen: HUGE Japanese grocery store in downtown San Mateo. They have mitarashi dango for sale here :)

Edlyn Yuen: Breakfast, anyone? Fine, it's a chain, but their carrot raisin nut muffins are awesome. I don't even like carrots or raisins!

Edlyn Yuen: All the kids I knew from high school were obsessed with this place. I'm not a huge fan of Mexican food, but when I go, I like it here.

Edlyn Yuen: Homemade Japanese food.

Edlyn Yuen: 24-hour diner. Bad coffee. BEST PIES EVER. Try the banana cream!

Edlyn Yuen: This place is new and sort of hard to find, but they have really great teas!

Edlyn Yuen: Caveat - I haven't tried this place yet, but it's on my list of places I'd like to check out :)

Edlyn Yuen: Driving range! Opens early in the morning (except on Mondays)

Edlyn Yuen: Start here, and walk around the boardwalk towards the amphitheatre. Look up at the old Visa building. Check out the Oracle buildings in the distance. Watch the sunset! Isn't Foster City beautiful?
