Hyatt Embarcadaro is going for $68 (SF/USE-Embarcadaro/4*). It is not a Hilton or Marriot but with FFN, it might be worth forgoing an upgrade/breakfast.

Speaking of which, TravelKhatt and I are staying at the aforementioned Hyatt on Sat night, and doing the Good Vibrations Sunday Brunch at the Hyatt on Sunday Morniong if anyone is interested. Let me know at the brunch as I will be electronically out of touch past then.

Thanks for the BART info! I think I'm w/ Super Shuttle on the way back though since my flight is at 6:30am Sun a.m. (yawn).

I'm probably going to do Hilton or one of the Marriotts; need nights to keep status. Just running some promo codes to see which is the least.

What's the weather like up there? It's low 70s & sunny down here; high 60s in eve. I know SF can be very different though (found that one out the hard way - no one ever told me the Mark Twain quote!).

Looks like the weather is going to be quite nice. Partly cloudy is what is forecast. Highs in the 60s during the day, 50s at night. I expect the usual coastal marine layer to hang around til mid-morning. I'd bring a jacket.

Sorry, a last minute change of plan. Now I need to go to San Jose and pickup some stuff from my brother so won't make it to the Sat Lunch. Everyone enjoy the Dim Sum.

The more the merrier!

Non-seafood dishes include: steamed and pickled chicken feet, soya-sauced duck tongues, stewed mixed pork organs, thousand-year-old egg porridge, .... etc. etc., plenty for you to choose from! :D

See y'all in a few hours, can't wait!

Side note: Cantonese words Dim Sum literally mean touch or tap (one's) heart.

And all of them are my favorite. Especially the duck tongues! Oh well, maybe next time.
