Shanghai pork dumpling, crab roe and meat dumplings. Prosperity dinner $88
M.Y. China, San Francisco CA
I really hate this place. The service is amateurish and the food is mediocre. We only came back to use up a stupid gift card! These dumplings were bland and sad looking.
One dozen served with champagne mignonette. Happy hour $12
Farallon, San Francisco CA
These were good (not the best), but at a dollar each I’m not gonna complain too much. As long as I had a bit of the mignonette with them I was fine. Some of them weren’t shucked very cleanly though, but the seaweed garnish was a nice touch.
April 29, 2015. Half dozen, happy hour $6
Classic Manhattans. Happy hour each $6
Snake River Farm 16 oz veal chop served with spinach, marble potato and natural jus. $34
Farina, San Francisco CA
This was ok. Salty and gristly, but ok. I don’t like this place.
Conzorzio Vini Tipici de San Marino, Brugneto 2010. $14
Chicken, Japanese curry, gyoza, egg, rice. $11
Street Food Dojo, San Francisco CA
This was great! The chicken katsu was moist and tender, and not greasy. The curry was delicious as was the gyoza. The rice was on the dry side, but the runny egg helped to add some moisture. Noms!
With hoisin sauce. Two pieces $6.90
Koi Palace, Daly City CA
I did not enjoy this. There was very little duck, too much cucumber, and the wrapper was limp and soggy. Lame!
Chili paste and hot mustard.
Brown rice chips topped with tuna picante, melted pepper jack cheese, avocado, green onion, nori strips, sriracha aioli. $8
Sushirrito, San Francisco CA
This is now one of my new favorite lunch items because it’s cheap and super delicious! The tuna picante is tasty and I love the sriracha aioli. Noms!
July 11, 2015. $8
Savory pancake, kimchee, scallion, cabbage, bonito, oko sauce, kewpie mayo. $14
Namu Gaji, San Francisco CA
This was delicious, but it was SO hot and I was SO hungry that I kept burning the roof of my mouth. I’ve never had okonomiyaki before and I thought it was great. I loved all the different textures and flavors.

Aged 24 months prosciutto, imported burrata cheese and lightly fried sage focaccia. $20

This was actually pretty good, but this restaurant is super shady! I don’t trust a place that double charges you.

Manhattan. $10
Shrimp, clams and oysters. $14.95
Sam’s Chowder House, Half Moon Bay CA
I’ve discovered not I’m not a fan of raw clams. These were good, but they’re just not for me. The oysters were great too and the shrimp were tasty. This was a nice lil snack!
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. $5.50
Hoegarden. $5.50
Three pieces $5.90
Koi Palace, Daly City CA
Mmm, these were delicious and one of my favorites from the meal. I loved the XO sauce and dried pork(?) on top. The shrimp filling was also very good.
Tea. Complimentary
Fried pastry shells stuffed with roasted cumin potatoes. Single $1
Chaat Cafe, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this large samosa was delicious! I outside was hot and flaky and the inside was soft and flavorful. A great yummy treat to accompany my lunch meal.
Steak, pepperoni, grilled onions, green peppers, provolone. Small $6.49
Charley’s Grilled Subs, San Francisco CA
I’ve decided that I should never eat here again. The quality sucks and the sandwiches are small and don’t taste very good. Shame on me for returning here a second time (but I did use a coupon). 🙂
