Stuffed chicken wings with silver noodles, minced chicken and black mushrooms. Served with sweet and sour sauce. $7.95
Sai Jai Thai Restaurant, San Francisco
Mmm, these were so good! I can’t very well complain about stuffed and fried chicken wings (although sometimes they get super dry), and these were cooked nicely. This tasted great!
Morel mushroom, English peas, saffron. $32
Aziza, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this was delicious! The halibut was perfectly cooked and everything tasted great together. I loved the earthy flavors and the dish was well balanced.
Duvel, Belgian strong pale ale. $6
Eggs, salame, parmiggiano reggiano, buffalo mozzarella, extra-virgin olive oil, fresh garlic, fresh basil, black pepper, sea salt. $25
Una Pizza Napoletana, San Francisco CA
Um, I thought I’d like this pizza more because of all the hype. I mean, it was good but I guess it just wasn’t my style. The crust was too chewy and almost felt undercooked. I like the combination of toppings in the Apollonia though.
Menabrea Blonde Lager. $8
Black vinegar sauce. $10
Hong Kong Lounge II, San Francisco CA
This was pretty good, but super expensive especially for the Richmond. The management here is supposedly crooked too. I’ve read that they weren’t paying their employees and actually threatened them even after legal intervention!
Tsingtao. $6.25
Croissant-muffin filled with green tea cream. Each $4.50
Mr. Holmes Bakehouse, San Francisco CA
Yes, I admit it! I waited in that stupid cruffin line for over an hour to try one of these things, and I don’t even like matcha (totally got screwed on the rotating flavors). But I’m also going to admit that these were AMAZING! Each person is only allowed 2 cruffins and you’ll definitely eat both and want another – they’re SO delicious, NOMS!
Slice $5
Slice House, San Francisco CA
I didn’t like this very much. The crust was hard and the whole things was pretty dry.

Chickpeas, curry and herb pesto on wheat. $10
The Sentinel, San Francisco CA
I liked this sandwich, but I’m not sure I liked their wheat bun. I like their brioche bun SO much more! The herb pesto was killer though!
Pineapple honey garlic glaze, bok choy, served with rice. $8.95
Fang Restaurant, San Francisco CA
Fang is one of my new favorite lunch places currently. The food tastes great and the prices are super reasonable. These spareribs were very flavorful and pretty meaty.
$14
Hong Kong Lounge II, San Francisco CA
This was OK. The crab meat was labeled “fresh” on the menu, but it didn’t taste very fresh to me.
$4.50
B. Patisserie, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this was SO delicious! This kouign amann was so buttery and flaky, and the berry rhubarb filling was perfect. More please!!!

Coffee. $2
Pepperoni, sausage, mozzarella cheese, tomato sauce. Slice $6
Slice House, San Francisco CA
Wow, this slice was enough for a meal – it was super thick and filling! The crust was buttery and doughy and pretty good. I personally like thin crusts, but I still enjoyed eating this pizza.

Grilled steak, lettuce, rice, black beans, sour cream, guacamole, cheese, pico de gallo. Super $10.09
Papalote Mexican Grill, San Francisco CA
Omg, just found out that Papalote makes “naked” burritos which is pretty much like a burrito bowl. Heck yeah! I love the proteins at this place because they always cooked them perfectly and they’re always substantial. This is definitely a much better lunch than Chipotle.
