Spicy eggplant with chicken – King of Thai Noodle House
Sautéed sliced chicken with eggplant, bell pepper, basil and Thai chili served with steamed rice. $10
King of Thai Noodle House, San Francisco CA
I wasn’t impressed. This dish was bland and there wasn’t much of it so I was still hungry after finishing the portion. It’s definitely not a good quality for lunch, and it doesn’t taste authentic at all. Boo!
Sloppy bun – Bun Mee
Red curry ground beef, house garlic mayo, shaved onion, thai basil, jalapenos, sunny free range egg. $7.75
Bun Mee, San Francisco CA
This sandwich was good, but it didn’t blow my socks off. I thought that the red curry beef could have used a bit more flavor. My favorite part was the sunny egg and jalapenos. The sandwich did maintain its Vietnamese roots in its flavor profile which was nice. I thought it was really good quality so I’ll probably return and try some of the other banh mi’s.

Takoyaki – Izakaya Sozai
Battered octopus balls, bonito flakes, nori, served with tonkatsu sauce. $9.50
Izakaya Sozai, San Francisco CA
Omg, these octopus balls were frickin’ amazing and I loved the presentation. This was definitely a case of eating with the eyes and mouth. The dish looked so pretty on the wooden plank and the bonito flakes and nori strips danced on top. It was difficult to taste the octopus (partly because octopus has such a mild flavor to begin with), but the texture was great and it was perfectly fried.
