Halloween eve was spent partying at the Ghoulish Gala Halloween party at the Legion of Honor, hosted by ArtPoint. Open bar, food, live band, and exhibits – I’d say it was a hit, and at only $35 (after employee discount) it was definitely worth it. I went as Dr. Robert Ray from Dr. 90210, Helen [...]

My most favorite Nestle Kit Kat flavor of all time is matcha green tea, made in Japan. It’s a little sweet and a leaves a bit of a bitter aftertaste, just like after drinking matcha. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to find any Asian markets here that sells this, otherwise I’d probably buy a box of [...]

I’m so hooked on Tea Garden. It’s nothing special, but for Taiwanese food in San Francisco, it’s good enough. This time I got their pork chop over rice (排骨飯), which came with stewed pork (肉燥), a tea egg (茶葉蛋) and some pickled greens (雪菜). I also gave their milk tea another shot, this time just [...]

I finally got to try Burger Bar at Macy’s in Union Square. We went at midnight so we didn’t have to wait for a table. We all had just their basic burger – the Black Angus beef – with our choice of toppings. I think anyone who wants to compare burgers with other restaurants’ should [...]

We went to check out the new bakery on Bay St. called DeLise. It’s definitely unique. I don’t know of any other bakeries in the city that offers a wide variety of unique treats, such as bacon maple scones, mini carrot cupcakes, fleur de sel cookies, and honey chrysanthemum sorbet. I got to sample just [...]

I’ve been wanting to try Local Kitchen and Wine Merchant since it opened months ago since but it’s always been out of the way. We went for their special with duck, and if I was to describe it with one word, I would have to say “Asian” because the duck had the flavor you’d find [...]

I think that aside from Tapioca Express, iCafe is the only other boba cafe in the city that I like to hang out in. Free wifi, outlets everywhere, and milk tea with well-made tapioca pearls is all I ask for. I usually get their lavender milk tea but this time I got their jasmine green [...]

I can’t believe I haven’t been to Kara’s Cupcakes in so long – so long that I don’t even remember when the last time I went was. All I can remember is that there was a point in my life where I would go just about every week. Then, the whole ice cream trend in [...]

Sean and Rita only had about two hours to experience San Francisco during their layover. We kicked it off with lunch at Burma Superstar. A table was waiting for us and the food was already ordered by the time we sat down. This lunch felt more like a dinner feast. Another day at Burma Superstar, [...]

I went to see WonFu (旺福) perform at Cafe Du Nord. Scrabbel opened the night and they were awesome – such a nice group of people. After them was WonFu. I never thought I’d ever see an indie Taiwanese band perform in America, but anything is possible XiaoMin was hilarious with his humor in his [...]
