Yummy "dim" dinner – Range

We had an absolutely wonderful dinner at Range on Valencia Street in the Mission. The restaurant is dimly lit so I wasn’t able to take any good food pics, but I thought I’d post these anyway for posterity, hehe. We also had the creamed nettles with a poached farm egg for an appetizer, but that pic didn’t come out at all.  Enjoy!
Range, San Francisco

Pink Panther cocktail Range

Pink Panther cocktail – Tito’s vodka, pomegranate, tawny port, black pepper, lemon.
Yummy yummy cocktail and I loved the soft pink color!

Smoking Gun cocktail Range

Smoking Gun cocktail – Bulleit bourbon, maraschino, Dolin sweet vermouth, scotch rinse.
I didn’t like this cocktail as much.  I think the scotch rinse was too much for me.

Pan roasted bavette steak Range

Pan roasted bavette steak with horseradish, barley, brussels sprouts, shiitake mushrooms and baby turnips. $28
Yum!  I’m not a huge horseradish fan, but these were mild and tasted great with the perfectly cooked steak.  The brussels sprouts were yummy and the baby turnips were so frickin’ cute!

Coffee rubbed pork shoulder Range

Coffee rubbed pork shoulder with creamy hominy and braised greens. $25
Omg!  I’m hungry just recalling this dish!  The pork was so tender and juicy and the coffee rub gave it a great flavor.  The sauce was to die for and tasted SO good with the hominy and greens.  A definite winner dish!

Roasted chicken & yuca fries – Limon Rotisserie

Roasted chicken yuca fries Limon Rotisserie

“Pollo a la Brasa”.  Savory free-range 1/4 chicken (breast and wing) slowly roasted over open flame.  Served with two sides and “Aji” sauces. $8.50
Limon Rotisserie, San Francisco

For my sides, I chose the yuca fries and tacu-tacu (Peruvian rice) and both were delicious.  The roasted chicken was absolutely delicious and oh so tender and juicy!  Omg, and I can’t believe it only cost $8.50 for the chicken and 2 sides.  What a steal!  That’s what I call dining deliciously on a budget!  The restaurant is kind of randomly located in the Mission, but I’m definitely coming back for the yummy food and great service.

Aji sauces Limon Rotisserie

Aji sauces.  I’m not sure what all the sauces were, but they were SO good!  Normally aji sauce is bright green and is put through a blender, but none of these fit that description.  No worries, I used them for the chicken and the yuca fries. Noms!
