### 🗺️ Event Overview
Join us for a 5–7 mile scenic urban hike across San Francisco, starting at Civic Center and ending at Emperor Taste Restaurant in the Richmond District. Along the way, we’ll explore a mix of the city’s urban landmarks, hidden neighborhoods, and scenic viewpoints before finishing with a well-earned family-style seafood dinner (***I won't be joining dinner after all- there should be a good amount of folks who would like to try the restaurant you could join dinner with).
This is a perfect chance to get outside, stretch your legs, and enjoy good company before gathering around the table together.
