Persimmon, pepita, marrow. Four course menu $59
Aster, San Francisco CA
Meh, this was forgettable. I liked the texture of the pureed squash soup, but it was a bit thick they didn’t pour enough on top to fill the edges. This dish looked more like roasted persimmon topped with a squash sauce rather than a proper soup.
Nettle and cippolini agrodolce. Pasta tasting $70
Flour + Water, San Francisco CA
I’ve never heard of tajarin pasta before, but I guess it’s a thinner version of tagliatelle. Anyway, the best part of this dish was the brown butter giblet sauce – omg, SO good! Combined with the grated cheese on top, it was the best combination of sweet and salty.
