With onions and cilantro. $2.95
Tropisueno, San Francisco CA
Tropisueno doesn’t make the best tacos, but I certainly appreciate their simplicity. Add a dollop of salsa and you have a wonderfully fulfilling bite!
Pork spareribs in black bean sauce. $9
Tao Yin Restaurant, San Francisco CA
This dish wasn’t very good. In addition to the gross amount of floating oil, the spareribs were fatty and didn’t have much meat on them. The vegetables were also mushy and disgusting.
Piperade, tzatziki, grilled bread. $13
Hamlet, San Francisco CA
These meatballs tasted great! They were moist and flavorful, and paired well with the tomato and red pepper sauce (piperade) and tzatziki. I wish they served it with more of the grilled bread though. You only get two measly slices. 😦
Tomato jam, lavender honey. $10
Barndiva, Healdsburg CA
These croquettes were very tasty, but I think that they were too rich to comfortably eat more than a couple. The lavender honey was especially wonderful as an accompaniment though. Mmm…
Ham, marinated pork, pickles, Swiss cheese, and yellow mustard. $11
The Sentinel, San Francisco CA
Ugh, I didn’t like this very much. The sandwich was pretty dry, hard, and tough to chew through. The filling was over sour and salty, and just wasn’t balanced.
Whole grain mustard-herb crusted, with gratinee potatoes, green beans, and red wine demi-glace. $38
Spencer’s Restaurant, Palm Springs CA
Where Spencer’s lacked in the appetizer department, they made up for it in the entrees. This rack of lamb was delicious and the portion was ginormous! I loved everything about this dish. Noms!
Caterpillar roll: shrimp tempura, sliced avocado on top. Crunch California roll: tempura crunch, crab salad, avocado, cucumber. Wednesday Daily Special $10.99
Tokyo Express, San Francisco CA
This definitely wasn’t the best sushi by any means, but it was passable and priced pretty cheaply for the FiDi. The rice was kinda dry and the rolls weren’t very flavorful, but it was a welcomed change from my usual lunch spots.
Served with side salad an miso soup.
Topped with enchilada sauce and queso fresco. $4.50
Tropisueno, San Francisco CA
This enchilada was fine, but nothing special. I really just come here for the salsa bar anyway. 🙂
Ground lamb grilled with onion, pasrley and garlic, hot sauce. Served in a pita bread. $9
Sunrise Deli, San Francisco CA
I thought this was a little dry, especially since the pita was pretty thick and substantial. I felt like it need some more hot sauce or some hummus thrown in.
Served with garlic fried rice. 2-item combo $11.29
Inay Filipino Kitchen, San Francisco CA
Ugh, Filipino food is so delicious and comforting! This is one of my guilty lunch pleasures since it’s not the healthiest food for you. It certainly tastes great though, hehe!
With basil. $10
Tao Yin Restaurant, San Francisco CA
This dish was super oily, and the quality of the beef was very poor. Ugh, why do I order this crap?!
English peas, radish, sour dough croutons, charred spring garlic vinaigrette. $13
Hamlet, San Francisco CA
I liked this salad. It was simple but tasty. The sourdough croutons were especially fun. I thought they could have given a bit more burrata though. There was only a few chunks of it thrown in there.
Berryessa ‘La Fuerza Borracho’ lager, CA. $6
