If you’re craving British comfort food without boo If you’re craving British comfort food without booking a flight, you’re in luck.

San Francisco finally has a proper British pub. Tucked inside the Inn at the Opera in Hayes Valley is Dingles Public House. 

Chef George, who’s worked at two Michelin-starred restaurants in the UK, teamed up with his partner Anissa to bring classic British pub food, done exceptionally well.

Think fish & chips, Scotch egg, cheesy Welsh rarebit, flaky beef & Guinness meat pies with bone marrow, and of course sticky toffee pudding with brown butter ice cream. And honestly it was all better than what I recently had in London.

They’ve also got a full Sunday roast in the works, with roast beef, pork belly, the whole deal. I’ll be back to report on that.

Dingles opens the day after Thanksgiving.

I was supposed to get a tattoo yesterday. I waited I was supposed to get a tattoo yesterday. I waited 20 months for the appointment.

It would have been sunflowers and other wildflowers, accented by three little birds. 

“Sunflowers” was the Ted Lasso episode I watched in one of my lowest moments alone. I was hurting so much that I couldn’t pull myself together to leave home for a dinner collab. I ordered food instead and happened to watch that episode for the first time.

It ended with the cast singing “Cause everything little thing, gonna be alright” from Three Little Birds. That episode was an incredible journey of characters hitting their own turning points and many self-revelations. It overloaded me in a way that I needed in that moment.

Sunflowers are one of my favorites. Their sturdy stalks feel like strength, resilience, and being grounded. The yellow is hope and light. 

And Amsterdam, where that episode was set, was also my favorite solo trip. It felt like more than a coincidence. 

I wanted to memorialize the symbolism. It was the sun breaking through my clouds, after being cruelly cut down more than once by someone oblivious in their disconnected bubble.

But 19 months into the wait, I realized that the tattoo wasn’t the right timing for a few reasons.

So here’s to buying myself sunflowers instead and honoring what I survived. Maybe someday I’ll still get the ink.🌻💛
