These French fries were great! They were hot and fluffy and not greasy. The perfect way to enjoy a fry.

Sugarsnap peas, brassicas, kumquat, mint. Tasting menu $155
Lazy Bear, San Francisco CA
This little dish tasted great! It had a combination of ingredients that I normally would think that worked together, but they actually tasted great. The whipped goat cheese was great at bringing everything together. Mmm…

$3.50
Wise Sons Jewish Delicatessen, San Francisco CA
This bagel was unlike any other bagel I’ve had in San Francisco. I don’t know, I’m not a New York bagel expert, but some people find Wise Sons bagel comparable to their precious NYC bagels. My opinion is that this bagel was very good. I loved the plentiful amount of seeds that created a thick crunchy, crusty layer on the outside. The interior wasn’t doughy or dense like some other bagels I’ve had that I didn’t like. For me, this bagel was a winner!

Two pieces of crispy battered cod filet on a buttered grilled bun, with tartar sauce, lettuce, and tomato. Substitute for gorgonzola fries with Frank’s Red Hot sauce. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
This sandwich was huge! I guess I didn’t pay attention when it said “two pieces” of fish, lol! Anyway, it tasty pretty good and it certainly was filling. I didn’t like their gourmet fries though. I didn’t realized that they were going to get covered with the hot sauce and gorgonzola, so they came out REALLY limp and unappetizing.

Sweet red curry with bell pepper, basil leaves and coconut milk. $8.95
Chada Thai Cuisine, Palm Springs CA
Meh, this panang curry was more yellow than I’m used to. They also added zucchini which wasn’t indicated on the menu description. It was also one of the most watery panang curries I’ve had. Another failure in my book…

Grilled beef served with Mexican rice, beans and two flour tortillas.
Guacamoles, Palm Springs CA
Again, the protein was pretty dry on this dish. It tasted fine and had a nice grilled flavor, but it was difficult to eat. Good thing the refried beans were yummy.

Creamed spinach, yukon gold mashed potatoes, country gravy. $18
Zin American Bistro, Palm Springs CA
The fried chicken tasted ok, but the outside was a little limp for my taste. I like a nice, crispy coating on my fried chicken. The country gravy was also very milky and kinda bland. I liked the creamed spinach though.

$3
Arizmendi Bakery, San Francisco
I liked the flavors in this, but it was actually pretty hard and difficult to chew through. Perhaps it had been sitting out too long? Hmm…

Sweet cured pork, egg, tater tots, pico de gallo, shredded cheese, sour cream, and Hula Verde sauce. $9.50
Hula Truck, San Francisco CA
This Filipino burrito was really tasty! I loved the flavor of the pork tocino, and everything else added to the flavor party in my mouth. Albeit, this wasn’t the healthiest thing to eat, but it certainly filled me up with goodness during lunchtime.

Sprinkled with additional parmesan, oregano and red pepper flakes. $4.14
Escape From New York Pizza, San Francisco CA
I wish pizza wasn’t so bad for my diet. I would eat it WAY more often, lol! There is no denying a salty, greasy slice that only pizza can provide. Mmm…

Wok sauteed farmers market green beans. $5
Chicken Ranch, Palm Springs CA
These were really salty, but they were still pretty good (although I couldn’t eat much of it because of the salt). I liked the ginger flavor and the green beans were really fresh and crisp.

Puffed rice, foie gras, brown rice cracker. Tasting menu $155
Lazy Bear, San Francisco CA
I know that this is a horribly dark photo, but I promise you that there really is beef tartare underneath that netting of puffed brown rice and foie gras. And it was delicious! 🙂
