Can you make pizza?

I'm not very savvy in the kitchen...
I am however expert in dealing with waitresses and menus.

I have emailed the owners of both the Larkspur property and the Half Moon Bay property.

Nope. You spelled everything correctly. The "nigerian prince" never does. [laugh]

Not for nuttin... but if you really were in it for the good pizza then the only place to move would have been NYC.... :)

But then again you would have had to settle for at least a 45 minute commute to good riding. lol Ahhh life is full of compromises.... and navigating Manhattan traffic on a bike is something of the local sport... we have a decent team.

not really, New Haven pizza is superior to Manhattan pizza.

hihhhs, if you needs someone to get an eye on a place and take some digital pics, give a holler.  Someone should be close enough to Larkspur to take a look.  And someone riding the Penninsula hills on the weekend can swing by HMB to check a place out.

Even the now-vegan who grew up in Chicago agrees New Haven has the best pizza. [thumbsup]

HMB's pretty foggy too.

Yeah, but it's not 24/7 foggy.

Parts of Pacifica, Daly City, and the Sunset are so foggy that living there you will question whether the sun still exists. :P

I think I'm closest to HMB. I buy me groceries there. It's a city compared to me house.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Thanks very much. I may take you up on that.

Just got an email, someone rented the Half Moon Bay TODAY.
Haven't heard from Larkspur yet.

Are you looking for January or February or when?

We will probably arrive in January. But may ship a container in December. So will probably need a place rented in December. But, if I found a great place, I would rent it now, just to lock it in.

I can pop over to the Larkspur place and take pics if you like.

Beyond pizza, Larkspur has an excellent Italian-style cafe (Emporio Rulli) and 4 great restaurants (Picco the non-pizza restaurant, Left Bank (French), Yankee Pier, and the Tavern at Lark Creek) The last two are managed by our own chef du vitesse, DATV.

There are also Mexican, Thai, Chinese and assorted other places, plus a suitably skanky bar, the Silver Peso.

That's all in "downtown" Larkspur, which is really just one street. Beyond that there are tons of places to eat and roads to ride in Marin.  Plus, as I mentioned before, a good crackDucati dealer.

Lemme know if you need those pics.

Edit: PS - I think the fog thing in Pacifica/HMB is totally overblown, and a myth perpetuated by locals to keep tourists away. I don't think it's any foggier than the western parts of SF for sure.

I think Marin or HMB would provide the least culture shock for us. Being in the city would be very cool, but I think we might have to ease into that. Plus my work is going to take me all over the city. I might prefer not spending all my time there.
