Fiore sardo cheese, pine nut. $13
Pizzetta 211, San Francisco CA
This was a new combination of ingredients on a pizza for me, and I enjoyed it. It was a simple and delicious pizza. I liked the thin and slightly chewy crust too and the flavor combinations were great.

Gruyere, herb creme fraiche. $7.50
Monsieur Benjamin, San Francisco CA
Mmm, these were delicious. They were light and fluffy, but packed with flavor and not at all greasy. Noms!

Dolores Park.
Yellow peaches, young fennel, turnips, lavender honey, swiss chard. $33
Etoile, Yountville CA
Hmm, I thought that the duck was on the dry side. Actually, I thought this entire dish was on the dry side. They needed a more substantial sauce beside the random smear on the side.
Domaine Chandon.
Spicy marinara, Italian sausage, capicola ham, salami, mozzarella, parmesan, basil and oregano on thin crust. $15.59
California Pizza Kitchen, San Francisco CA
This pizza was ok. I liked that it was thin crust, but I felt like the pizza was a bit dry. The meats were very thinly sliced so they dried out fairly quickly.

Served with melon, walnuts, olives, and bread. $8.50
Pizzetta 211, San Francisco CA
Wow, I was surprised by the amount of cheese you got with this reasonably priced cheeseboard. I forget what they were, but they were delicious, especially the silky blue cheese. Noms!

Blue flowers, Castro.
With maple syrup/Makers Mark glaze. 3 pieces $5.75
The Sycamore, San Francisco CA
These donuts sounded good, but they actually weren’t very good. The batter was heavy and the donuts were greasy. The glaze was also too sweet.
United Nations Plaza.
Roasted leeks, tomatoes, watercress, charon croutons, bone marrow vinaigrette. $37
Etoile, Yountville CA
The beef was tender and flavorful, but the charon croutons were my favorite part. The bone marrow vinaigrette was also lovely.

Baby Blues BBQ, San Francisco CA
This was at the end of a day of birthday drinking with friends so I really can’t speak to the food so much, lol! I think it was good though… 🙂

Corn puree, caramelized figs, pickled watermelon rinds. $15
Boxing Room, San Francisco CA
I liked the flavors in the dish, and the pork belly was tasty BUT it was way too fatty! The pieces of pork belly were pretty much slabs of fat with very little meat on them. I think this is the first time that I couldn’t finish pork belly. I just left the huge chunks of fat on the plate.
Fabaceae family, Noe Valley.
Belgian-style waffle filled with prosciutto and manchego cheese, topped with fried chicken drizzled with maple syrup/Makers Mark, blueberry, strawberry. $10.75
The Sycamore, San Francisco CA
This dish read much more exciting than it actually was. The chicken was actually chicken nuggets and each piece of waffle was actually just a quarter piece. The waffle itself wasn’t very Belgian-style either. It didn’t have the right texture and airiness. The whiskey maple syrup was also too sweet for my taste. I was disappointed.
