Tacu-tacu – Limon Rotisserie

Tacu-tacu Limon Rotisserie

Side of Peruvian style rice topped with sliced tomatoes, red onions and chopped cilantro.
Limon Rotisserie, San Francisco

I’m not sure what’s in this rice that makes it Peruvian, but it tasted pretty good.  It wasn’t as tomato-y as Mexican rice I guess, and they must use different spices.

Vanilla cream puff – Beard Papa’s

Vanilla cream puff Beard Papa's

“Our original recipe custard discovered in Osaka, Japan and now made available around the world. Our vanilla custard is made with all natural ingredients and is abundant with the highest quality, imported vanilla beans grains available.” $2.25
Beard Papa’s, San Francisco

Mmm, how I love Beard Papa’s cream puffs.  And vanilla is my favorite!  The chocolate custard has a weird grainy texture that I’m less partial to.  The choux pastry is SO frickin’ light and fluffy and the vanilla custard is yummy!  The dusting of powdered sugar adds a little more sweetness.  I can only purchase one at a time otherwise I tend to eat them all, hehe!

Plum frangipane tart – Mission Pie

Plum frangipane tart Mission Pie

Slice of plum frangipane tart topped with Straus Organic whipped cream.  $3.50
Mission Pie, San Francisco

I’m not a huge fan of super sweet desserts so I love this tart at Mission Pie.  They don’t always have this flavor so don’t miss out on the thick slices of plums that are beautifully cooked and delicious! Mission Pie also buys their ingredients directly from farms and works closely with local non-profits.  Delicious desserts from a community conscious business – heck yeah!
