With basmati rice, pita, and salad. $8
Halal Cart, San Francisco CA
This is probably my favorite lunch item right now. I love their lamb gyro meat. They put a lot of white sauce on top already but I always add more, and include some of their pink hot sauce too. You can purchase extra meat but I can’t tell the difference in amount so it’s probably not worth it. This plate is so delicious though!

Guacamole, cheese, black beans, pico de gallo, sour cream. $9.75
Andale Mexican Restaurant, San Francisco CA
These nachos were good, but definitely on the salty side. The pork could have been more flavor but they were tender enough. I did like that they used cotija cheese.
Albacore tuna melt, arugula, house pickles, Shelbourne cheddar. $11
Machine Coffee & Deli, San Francisco CA
While I liked the flavors of this sandwich, I didn’t like the bread to filling ratio. I like sandwiches using baguettes, but there was almost no filling in this sandwich especially since it was a tuna melt. The baguette was also on the hard side. I was not impressed.

Served with potato chips.
Scallop, shrimp, chicken, onion, scallions, bamboo shoot, green bell pepper. $11.95
Henry’s Hunan Restaurant, San Francisco CA
This was ok. I appreciated that the scallops and shrimp were tender and not overcooked, but the sauce was pretty standard. I think it’s Henry’s “special” because it has a combination of proteins and not because it has a special sauce. In fact, the sauce was somewhat bland and boring. The dish was also on the greasy side.
Brown rice. $1.50
With caramelized onions. $9.50
The Golden West, San Francisco CA
Omg, this sandwich is frickin’ amazing! The short rib is super tender and oh so flavorful. I love the bbq sauce and mayo combination, and I also love the fresh soft sesame, potato(?) bun. This sandwich igoes down so easily and even though it’s pretty large, I couldn’t help but eat it all. Noms!

Delica, San Francisco CA
The food at Delica is pretty good and they use quality ingredients, often organic, but I felt like everything was just a little overpriced. This lunch combo did not fill me up at all and I was probably more hungry after eating this snack. It looks like a decent amount of food, but the portions are fairly small and unfulfilling. So the verdict is that the food is tasty, but don’t expect to get much of it.
“Tender, juicy Chicken McNuggets made with white meat, wrapped in a crisp tempura batter Made for sharing, if you want ’em all to yourself, then that’s our little secret.” With tangy barbeque dipping sauce. 950 calories, 60 g fat. 20 piece $4.99
McDonald’s, South San Francisco CA
The product descriptions on company websites are always SO funny. We all know that McNuggets are rarely tender or juicy and the spongy meat puree they’re made of no longer resembles white chicken meat. But I’ll admit that my brain has subscribed to all the advertisements since childhood and I sporadically crave these horrible snacks. I was particularly hungry so I ordered the 20 piece, lol! What?! It’s a value! 🙂
