Slowed cooked cabbage. RW Deal, $35 per person
Ambar, Washington DC
This was a very hearty option on the menu. The lamb was tender and tasted good. Don’t know if I’d order this again though because it was almost too big for a meal of sharing small plates.
Marinated with Mediterranean herbs and spices, kale, Rancho Gordo cassoulet beans, basil-mint chimichurri sauce. $22
Tarla Mediterranean Grill, Napa CA
Mmm, this lamb was really good! It was tender and juicy and so flavorful. I think a bit of tzatziki on the plate would have knocked it out of the park. I thought the kale and beans were tasty too.
Bulleit Sidecar: Bulleit bourbon, cointreau, fresh lemon juice. $10
Tarla’s Manhattan: Buffalo Trace bourbon, carpano antica, angostura bitters, candied cherry. $10
Gyros meat with hummus, tzatziki, and small Greek salad. Served with pita. $8.95
Ayola, San Francisco CA
This place doesn’t serve the best greek food in San Francisco, but I like them anyway. They’re fast and they give you a lot of food. They’re food is actually pretty good too and I love their hot sauce. Just know that their olives still have pits so don’t bite down too hard.

French green lentils with spinach and goat cheese. Pre fixe menu
Radio Africa & Kitchen, San Francisco CA
After we saw this plated trio, we knew we were gonna be full! The items were all really different and very tasty. I thought that the column of French green lentils was creative and beautifully presented. The lamb prepared two ways was good, and the barramundi had a nice flavor. Everything was pretty heavy though so we had to pace ourselves. 🙂
Roasted leg of lamb with lamb shoulder alicha, snap peas and couscous.
Wild barramundi with broccoli, wild rice, pomegranate and pistachios.
Beef and lamb marinated in spices with tahini sauce, hummus, pickles, salad and lettuce wrapped in lavash bread. Ordered hot. $7.95
Old Jerusalem, San Francisco CA
Wow, this was really good! I loved all the flavors and the pickles were actually a really great addition. It added a great tartness that I wasn’t expecting in a shawerma sandwich. It was super sauce which I love even though it gets messy eating. Noms!
Bon Tempe Lake.
Broccoli di ciccio, pluot, brown butter. Tasting menu $95
Luce, San Francisco CA
This was a miss for me. The flavors were there, but the texture of the lamb loin was really rubbery and squishy at the same time. It was off-putting and kind of ruined the rest of the great components on the plate. 😦
Blue trumpet vine (Thunbergia laurifolia, Acanthaceae), Kentfield.
100% NZ beef and lamb, smoked tomato chutney, beets, lettuce, kikorangi blue cheese and egg. $15
Waiheke Island Yacht Club, San Francisco CA
Omg, this burger was killer! If this is what all New Zealand burgers are like, I need to visit NZ soon! The patty was juicy and flavorful, and all the toppings were delicious. The burger was huge so I just rolled up my sleeves and got down and dirty with it. I don’t care what anybody say, but I’m a fan of eggs on burgers and this sunny side up egg was a thing of beauty. I was also delighted by the kikorangi blue cheese which I’d never had before. It was spread on the top bun and I initially thought that it was some kind of decadent pate spread because it was so rich and delicious, NOMS!
White and yellow Narcissus (Amaryllidaceae), Castro.
Served with hummus and white rice.
Sitges ES
Mmm, I love lamb meatballs. And these were covered in a yummy gravy, score! The meatballs were tender and super flavorful, and the gravy tasted great with the rice and even the hummus.
Church of Sant Bartomeu and Santa Tecla. This is the most prominent building along the Sitges waterfront and I think it’s quite beautiful!
Cotes d’agneau grillees aux fines herbes. With haricot vert and frites. 12,50€
La Comete, Paris FR
Mmm! While the lamb chops were tasty, they weren’t butchered very cleanly. The cuts looked beat up and a bit ragged and sad. The French fries weren’t as good as those of our previous meal, but at least they weren’t gross and greasy. But I do love green beans!
Red and white wines.
Menu.
Place Vendome Column. This beautiful column is covered with 425 spiraling bas-relief bronze plates and topped with a statue of Napoleon.
Slices of garlic studded roasted choice lamb leg topped with mushroom sauce served with basmati rice pilaf, salad and bread. $15.95
Goood Frikin’ Chicken, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this was really good! The lamb was super tender and flavorful. The basmati rice pilaf was too salty and I could have done without it, but I do love their bread. The lamb even tasted great as leftovers the next day. 🙂
Side salad.
Peanuts, dill pickles, green onion, cilantro, chili oil. $9
Mission Chinese Food, San Francisco CA
These dumplings are kind of amazing! I just wish they give you more since they’re SO delicious. The dumplings have a great shape and the wrapper has a nice bite to it. I always love the combination of salty, sour, hot, spicy, and umami in the dishes from MCF. NOMS!
Harissa sausage, yellow eye beans, broccoli rabe, preserved lemon jus. $22
The Alembic, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this was such a hearty dish and it tasted delicious! The harissa sausage was my favorite component, but the lamb was also very tender and juicy. I appreciated the cute Nasturtium leaves too, hehe!
