Egg rolls – Utopia Cafe
Two rolls with sweet and sour sauce. $4.25
Utopia Cafe, San Francisco CA
These weren’t that good. They were on the greasy side and were mostly filled with cabbage. Ugh, I was not impressed.
Tea. Complimentary
Carnitas and lengua tacos – Uno Dos Tacos
Slow roasted pork with roasted salsa. Braised beef tongue with tomatillo salsa. Served with side of black beans with queso fresco. Each $3.25
Uno Dos Tacos, San Francisco CA
These tacos were great (especially the lengua) and nicely priced. The meats were so flavorful and the corn tortillas were perfect. I also love the black beans that they come with. Noms!
Sausage egg breakfast bagel – Koffi
Grilled with pepper jack cheese. $5.95
Koffi, Palm Springs CA
Mmm, this was great. I love that they press the bagel – that made all the difference. They also include plenty of sausage. 🙂
Vichyssoise soup – Lulu California Bistro
Potato and leek soup served cold. 3-course dinner $19.99
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
This soup was ok, maybe a bit bland. I did like the texture of it though.
Bbq bacon burger – Bongo Johnny’s
Johnny’s bbq sauce, onion rings, smoked cheddar, and bacon served with crinkle-cut fries and a pickle. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
The bacon was the best part of this burger because it was cooked perfectly. The patty was tender enough but a bit on the bland side. It could have been seasoned a bit better so thank goodness for the bbq sauce. Overall, it was ok.
Hot pastrami with chopped liver sandwich – Sherman’s Deli and Bakery
Served open-faced, garnished with lettuce, red onion and tomato, served with coleslaw. $14.95

Wow, another amazing and gigantic sandwich from Sherman’s! I love coming here because the food is predictably delicious and there’s enough food for two meals. Mmm, I love this place!

Hawker bowl – Bun Mee
Fried egg, shredded papaya, lotus root relish, pickled carrots and daikon, topped with Vietnamese herbs, spicy mayo, and fried shallots over brown rice and grilled pork. $11.75
Bun Mee, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this was a great, creative Vietnamese salad. The combination of ingredients was great and it was pretty hearty for a salad. I’m a sucker for eggs on top of everything so they had me there. I especially liked the lotus root relish because it was very different.
Baja fish taco – Tropisueno
Ecuadorian tilapia, Negra Modelo beer battered and fried, with salsa verde, sour cream, and house slaw. $3.95
Tropisueno, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this fish taco was very tasty. I liked the beer batter and it wasn’t greasy at all. Top it with some more salsa from their salsa bar and you have a winner!
Chicken mole – Casa Mexicana II
Platter with rice, black beans and salad. $8.75
Casa Mexicana II, San Francisco CA
This was decent. I thought the mole sauce was good, but it could have been a bit more complex and rich in flavor. Definitely a good amount of food for the price though. The service here is hit or miss though. They completely frustrated me at times…
Trout salad – Bar Tartine
Brown rice and spinach. $10
Bar Tartine, San Francisco CA
This salad was actually really delicious, but it was nothing more than a snack. The serving was REALLY small especially for the price. I was really annoying.
Strawberry and juniper soda. $6
Garlic fries – Derby Grill
You really can’t go to a SF Giants game and not eat garlic fries! They just go together so perfectly. And don’t worry about garlic breath since everyone else will have it too. $8
