Shipley Do-Nuts, Oxford MS
Mmm, this donut was pretty tasty! The chocolate glaze was on the thick side, but I didn’t mind. I loved the light, fluffy dough. Noms!

Burrata – 1760
Grilled bread, garbanzo beans, asian pear, walnuts. $13
1760, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this was pretty tasty! I loved the sculptural presentation and the variety of textures. I think there was also some pickled onions in there so it was all good. 🙂

Tiger roll – Wasabi Bistro
Shrimp tempura, topped with snow crab and walnut. $13
Wasabi Bistro, San Francisco CA
Ugh, I was not a fan of the abundant, goopy white sauce on top. It reminded me of condensed milk (among other things) and it tasted a little sweet too. It definitely turned me off. I tried a piece and left the rest for the table.

Roasted beet and tangerine salad – Radio Africa & Kitchen
With arugula and spiced red walnuts. Mushroom wot with mustard greens and smoked cheese. Pre fixe menu
Radio Africa & Kitchen, San Francisco CA
I love roasted beets and this salad had a awesome combination of flavors and textures. It was super refreshing and delicious. I’ve never had Ethiopian wot before, but this mushroom wot reminded me of an Italian crostini. It tasted great!

Brownie a la mode – Mozzeria
Banana, walnut, vanilla ice cream. Pre fixe menu
Mozzeria, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this was pretty good and I’m not even into really sweet desserts. The brownie was moist and not super sweet as brownies go, thank goodness. I also liked that they bruleed the bananas individually. A great way to finish off a less than stellar meal. 🙂

Hot cross bun – Noe Valley Bakery
Spiced bread with raisins and walnuts. $2.60
Noe Valley Bakery, San Francisco
Bought a dozen of these yesterday to take on our Easter wine tasting trip to Sonoma. It was a fun way to spend Easter with friends, but I might have over done it! I’m suffering today because of it, lol!

Butter lettuce and Fuji apple salad – Town Hall
Candied walnut, radish, Pt. Reyes blue cheese dressing. $12.50
Town Hall, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this salad was pretty tasty with all the classic flavor combinations. I’m a huge fan of Point Reyes blue because this local cheese company produces great products. And the dressing that Town Hall created with the blue cheese was delicious!

Flourless chocolate walnut fudgie – Flour Craft Bakery
Huh, I wasn’t a fan of this cookie. It was too dry and crumbly. You’d expected that with something called a “fudgie” it would not only have a rich chocolate flavor, but also a dense chewy texture. This cookie had neither. I’ll stick with their regular cookies next time. Each $2.25
Flour Craft Bakery, San Anselmo CA
Orange flame poker plant (Kniphofia galpinii, Xanthorrhoeaceae), Kentfield.
Endive salad – Oswald
With blue cheese, apples and walnuts, balsamic. $11
Oswald, Santa Cruz CA
This salad was very tasty. I loved that they used two different colors of endive as it created visual interest. The toppings were in great proportions and everything tasted delicious together.
Bread and butter. Complimentary
Sunset on the San Lorenzo River.
Buckwheat pancakes – Joule
Rhubarb chutney, walnut, whipped cream.
Joule, San Francisco CA
I liked the combination of slightly savory and sweet in this dish, and the texture of the buckwheat pancakes was great. I would say that was a pretty successful plate!

Morning bun – Cafe Chloe
Freshly baked with walnuts. $4.50
Cafe Chloe, San Diego CA
This was warm and sticky, and utterly delicious! I’m glad it wasn’t super gigantic because I would have eaten it all.

Fried Sonoma goat cheese – LaSalette Restaurant
Breaded and fried with fig compote and walnut bread. 7-item Tasca tasting plates $34
LaSalette Restaurant, Sonoma CA
Mmm, warm cheese with sweet fig compote and tasty bread! You can’t go wrong with that.
Backyard, Anaba Wines. We hit this small tasting room on our drive home. It’s located at the intersection of Hwy 121 and Hwy 116 so it’s very convenient to stop by when leaving town. The people behind the bar are friendly and the back area is small but cute.
