Vanilla ice cream with chunks of brownie and a fudge swirl. Junior cup $1.90
Scoopful Ice Cream, San Bruno CA
Scoopful Ice Cream storefront. The ice cream here was pretty good, but the lady behind the counter seemed more interested in watching tv than helping customers. Lame!
San Bruno Police Plaza next to the Bart Station behind Tanforan Mall. This is one of the nicer and cleaner police stations I’ve seen in the Bay Area.
Chicken shawerma with pickled onions and parsley, served with rice and choice of salad. $10.35
Ali Baba, South San Francisco CA
The chicken in this dish was dry, which was an unfortunate theme. I really liked the rice though! It had lentils in it which gave it a great texture. A pretty good value if that’s what you’re looking for.
Yogurt cucumber salatat (diced cucumber salad with yogurt and mint). This was pretty tasty, but maybe a little too yogurt-y. It did help balance out the dry chicken though.
Ali Baba street sign. This is definitely a destination restaurant since there’s not much around it.
Panda “bear” sidewalk stencil, San Francisco Bay Trail. Aw, isn’t he cute?!
Hamburger patty, chicken katsu with tontaksu sauce, and medium fried egg over rice, covered with gravy.

Snow crab, avocado, scallop, and masago (capelin roe) wrapped with white soy paper. $12
Saru Sushi Bar, San Francisco CA
This was a new one for me! I’ve never had a roll using soy paper before. It really didn’t taste like anything and the texture was weird, so I don’t think I was a fan. It gives the sushi roll an interesting look, but doesn’t do much in terms of taste. The rest of the roll tasted great though!
Planter with succulent plants, Jersey Street. This building was renovated a couple years back and they’ve filled the planter in front with a few different things already. They originally had horsetails (Equisetum sp., Equisetaceae) in it, and currently they have a beautiful assortment of hardy succulents. I definitely prefer this over the horsetails.
