Mixed mushroom and pesto pizza – Arizmendi Bakery

Mixed mushroom and pesto pizza - Arizmendi Bakery
With asiago cheese, basil pesto. $2.50
Arizmendi Bakery, San Francisco CA

The quality of the daily pizzas at Arizmendi is still pretty high and I love it! You really can’t go wrong with mushrooms and pesto, and their crust is as tasty and ever.

Housemade lasagna – Mercato

Housemade lasagna - Mercato
Layered with sausage, ricotta, asiago, and mozzarella cheese. $17
Mercato, Charleston SC

I was a little disappointed with this dish. I expected something more, something that made it special. Don’t get me wrong, it was tasty but not something I would rave about. I really enjoyed everything prior to this dish so that’s probably why I wanted to end with a bang.

Espresso - Mercato
Espresso. $3.50

The Rebel Within muffin - Craftsman & Wolves
This amazing creation by chef William Werner has quickly become one of my favorite breakfast items ever! I swear it tastes like Thanksgiving. The outer coating tastes like a delicious, moist stuffing. This muffin is served room temperature, but I bet it would taste exceptional if warmed up beforehand. I will have to take one home next time and throw it in the oven for a little bit.

The surprise egg with a runny yolk is a beautiful sight to behold! I would normally say that seven dollars is too much to pay for a mere muffin, but it’s super filling and is pretty much a meal in it of itself. Noms!

Sightglass Coffee, Blueboon blend
Sightglass Coffee, Blueboon blend. $2.50
Everybody raves about Sightglass coffee, but I’m not particularly impressed. The coffee is definitely smooth, but is too weak for my taste.

Cream cheese and tomato bagel sandwich – Jumpin’ Java Coffee House

Cream cheese and tomato bagel sandwich - Jumpin' Java Coffee House
On a toasted asiago bagel – $2.75. Large coffee – $2.
Jumpin’ Java Coffee House, San Francisco CA

I used to come to Jumpin’ Java regularly when I live on Castro and 14th. It’s a chill and relaxed place to grab coffee and work on your computer. I think the owners have changed since then, but it’s still a great o place to hang out. The people behind the counter are super nice and the bagels are deelish!
