My boyfriend (29) is a hongkonger moving to San Jose/Milpitas area for work in the next few weeks. I’d like to design/make him a fridge magnet with all the best hk restaurants in the area so he can easily choose one at any time. Are there any hongkongers in the area that know the best places?

He’s moving from OC area which has a good selection of food/access to LA was so close. I want to make it easier for him to transition there.

Please let me know if there are any other recommendations you have! TYIA

I'm relatively new to the Bay and haven't explored Indian/Pakistani food in my area. I have some relatives visiting me that love Indian or Pakistani lamb/mutton curry and they're interested in eating that when they're here. I'm looking for anyone's recommendations on where I can get lamb/mutton curry in South Bay or East Bay!

I'm surprised these flights are that cheap ~$300 one way. What's the catch here. It's still a longer flight, is it better to rather get a more known airline for travel?

How was your experience with ZipAir?

If you like biscuits & gravy, the biscuits at My Kitchen at Snell/Blossom are so tender and fluffy. I even ate the second half for dinner and it was still delicious! Recently reopened w new owners.

If you can recommend another biscuits & gravy spot, please let us know!!

…and men 🤣 what a good bar that guys in their late twenties/early thirties go to watch football (and possibly meet girls)?

It seems to get pretty bad with the drivers especially in san jose. No one seems to pay attention to signs or even their lanes... almost got into an accident 3x today with people not paying attention....

Anyone have any good leads to rent a convertible above in the san jose area or nearby there? It doesn't have to be a lambo or ferrarri, but the event is that I'm getting married and want a cool entrance vehicle.

Hey we’ve gone to Pho Tau Bay, Pho 90 degree, and Pho Hoa at Tully rd. Perhaps the Pho places in south and east sj have just not been it… and while the complaint isn’t the food, it’s about the lack of sanitation these restaurants have… we always see something that’s just off putting . we craving pho but wondering if yall been to any that are clean.

GF is looking to move in around city hall, but my complex doesn’t have an extra spot somehow. She would like to park at a garage nearby if possible/safe.

Planning to get three fruit trees for backyard. I only know the following nursery/places Costco Central Wholesale Nursery Summer Winds (too expensive though)

Open orchards that have u pick? Suitable for a toddler. Most are closed for the season.

Forget the job you didn’t get, the rude comment someone made, or the test you failed. Those things don’t define you. What matters is that you keep trying. The only time you truly lose is when you stop believing in yourself.

If you can’t find that belief today, know that I believe in you. You’ve got this, and better days are ahead.

Keep pushing. Apply for that job you think is out of reach. Study hard, reconnect with that old friend, call your parents if you can. Celebrate the small moments, like taking your kids out for ice cream, just because.

Don’t let temporary setbacks distract you from what really matters. Focus on the things that will shape your life years from now, not the things that will fade away in a few months.

You’re stronger than you think. And no matter what, I love you. ❤️
