Ranchero tequila, agave nectar, lime juice. $8
Mijita, San Francisco CA
These margaritas were kind of expensive especially since they were so small. I guess you can charge that amount when you’re attached to a baseball stadium which I think is pretty lame. They were good, but the place is also packed and super noisy so it’s not an enjoyable environment.
Palet: praline, concord grape, nasturtium. $6.50
Chocolate croissant stack. $3.50
Craftsman & Wolves, San Francisco CA
I recently met a visiting food blogger for a little dessert break along the Valencia Street corridor in the Mission. Wattwurmnashi has a beautifully well-written blog with amazing food photographs – check it out! As you can see from her blog entry of our Craftsman & Wolves visit, her food photographs are far better than my lil’ iPhone pics, lol. And it’s especially amazing since she snaps her pics so skillfully quick! Anyway, I had a great time getting to know Wattmurmnashi and continue to enjoy her fabulous blog.
Now, as far as these desserts, one was definitely better than the other. The palet was very good with a nice mix of flavors and textures (and it was pretty snazzy looking too). The chocolate croissant stack was a big disappointment. It was super dry and not that tasty.
With fennel, apple and raisins. $8.75
The Sentinel, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this sandwich was tasty. The fennel and apples really brightened up the trout salad and the bun was fluffy and delicious. I thought the bun top was a little over-done though.
Hand-cut potatoes, pork shoulder, belly, bacon, Mana Lil’s peppers, parmesan cheese. $6
Bacon Bacon, San Francisco CA
These loaded French fries were delicious, but my heart is hurting just thinking about them. This was way over the top, even for me. That was a lot of pork and fat for one little side. But I still want more, lol!
Half pound $10.95
Memphis Minnie’s, San Francisco CA
Kill me now – this was SO good! I loved everything about this brisket. It was tender, juicy, smoky, and oh so flavorful! I would eat this all the time if high cholesterol didn’t run in my family, lol. Goodness, I’m getting hungry just thinking about it. NOMS!
Pork cutlet with hot curry served with brown rice and house special pickles. $2.75
Muracci’s Japanese Curry & Grill, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this little pan was really yummy. I bought it on a whim and I’m glad I did. I liked the texture of the bread and the beef curry was pretty good too. A great little snack before the main dish.
Caramelized onions, cheddar, bacon, horseradish aioli and fries. $14
Marlowe, San Francisco CA
Wow, this burger was pretty delicious! The patty was juicy and perfectly cooked and although the toppings were pretty simple, they were of great quality and tasted amazing together. The horseradish aioli was also addictive and the fries were fabulous. Noms!
Egg yolk caramel sauce. $7
Fog City, San Francisco CA
Wow, this dessert was pretty amazing! I loved the texture of both the frozen custard and that marvelous egg yolk caramel sauce. Easily one of the best desserts I’ve had in a while!
7×7 Magazine’s The Big Eat San Francisco: 100 Things to Eat + Drink Before You Die – 2014
Ground turkey with sweet peas. Char-grilled and marinated naturally-raised chicken in a spicy, creamy tomato sauce. A homestyle Indian platter with one or two of the dishes listed below, roti (handmade bread), slow-simmered daal (lentils), rice, veggie salad, chutneys and raita (yogurt). $11.95
Kasa Indian Eatery, San Francisco CA
Mmm, I love the thali plates at Kasa. They’re a great value and there are so many flavors and components that make it fun to eat. I really need to stop getting the green hot sauce though. It tastes great but I always pay the next day. Lol!
Half slab $15.25
Memphis Minnie’s, San Francisco CA
Omg, these ribs were delicious! They were tender and beautifully smoked, and the mustard sauce was SO good to dip them into. More please!
Shredded beef with roasted root vegetables and topped with eggs over easy. $14.25
Luna Park, San Francisco CA
This dish was a disappointment. And let’s be honest, these eggs were fried – not over easy, not over medium or even over hard! They were fried and dry. Perhaps they kept cooking to a crisp under the warmer since the service was uber slow. This brunch was kind of a failure.
Hot and boozy cocktail sauce. $14
Marlowe, San Francisco CA
Omg, these shrimp were heaven! I loved that they were grilled, but the heads were still juicy and flavorful. Actually the whole shrimp was plump and delicious. The spicy sauce was also a great condiment. A winner!
