Five Star Seafood is usually solid for dim sum, and today was no exception. Took a long time to get a few of the usuals, but we had enough of a spread that I don't think anyone was complaining too loudy. Feng zhao (chicken feet) in particular were quite nice, har gow was kinda meh, and always good to have cheung fun. And was nice to catch up with everyone from/formerly from Geography, especially Clare, Rick, Lori, and KT! (to be fair just saw Kristina a few days before!)

Quick rup up to Bakersfield after, the SpringHill Suites is pretty bog-standard there.
