Chicken tikka masala – Cello Kebob & Pizza

Chicken tikka masala - Cello Kebob & Pizza
Chicken breast in masala sauce, served with basmati rice. $9
Cello Kebob & Pizza, San Francisco CA

I thought this tasted good, but there really wasn’t much chicken at all. Such a disappointment. I would have preferred getting thigh meat if they would serve a larger portion of it. I liked the slight spice in the masala sauce though.

Garganelli – Perbacco

Garganelli - Perbacco
“Little wind pipes”, Liberty Farm duck ragu, foie gras, quince agrodolce. $21
Perbacco, San Francisco CA

Omg, this plate of pasta was delicious! I guess you can’t go wrong with pasta at Perbacco (although my friend did not enjoy his risotto). The garganelli were cooked perfectly and they were really fun to eat. Between the duck ragu and foie gras, the sauce was particularly wonderful. Noms!

Katsu-done rice bowl – Osho Japanese Cuisine

Katsu-done rice bowl - Osho Japanese Cuisine
Topped with steamed vegetables and nori. $9.20
Osho Japanese Cuisine, San Francisco International Airport (SFO)

This tasted fine (although on the salty side), but there just wasn’t enough food to satisfy me. The bowl is fairly small and there was enough pork to make for a decent meal. Even the 3 pieces of vegetables looked sad.

Pepperoni slice – Escape From New York Pizza

Pepperoni slice - Escape From New York Pizza
Sprinkled with additional parmesan, oregano and red pepper flakes. $4.14
Escape From New York Pizza, San Francisco CA

I love a good slice of pepperoni pizza. It’s simple, classic and usually delicious. I liked the one from Escape only when it’s fresh from the oven. Thank goodness they had just put this one out on display. Yay!

Prosciutto and mozzarella panini – Boxed Foods Company

Prosciutto and mozzarella panini - Boxed Foods Company
Prosciutto americano, fresh mozzarella, lemon zest, arugula, citrus-garlic aioli. Served with side salad. $11
Boxed Foods Company, San Francisco CA

This sandwich was pretty tasty! It was filled with plenty of prosciutto and mozzarella, and the arugula was a great addition. The exterior was also wonderfully buttery and grilled. Noms!

Salumi misti – Perbacco

Salumi misti - Perbacco
A selection of house cured salumi inspired by traditional Piemontese recipes. Salame nostrano, salame finocchiona, lonza, coppa, lardo de cavour, testa, duck pate and rillettes. $19
Perbacco, San Francisco CA

Came here with some friends and had to suggest that they try this charcuterie plate. I loved it the first time I had it, and they really enjoyed it too. Perbacco certainly knows how to make delicious salumi!
