Must Eat Chicken Wings at So

February 28th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Food, Fusion, Korean, Must Eat / Leave A Comment

The wings at So are very similar to that of its sister restaurant, San Tung Chinese Restaurant, but anyone who frequents San Tung knows that they’re not exactly the same. By coincidence, I actually had San Tung earlier during the day for lunch. The wings at So were bigger and its sauce was not as [...]

Must Eat Chocolate Velvet Cupcake at Kara’s Cupcakes

February 28th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Bakery, Food, Must Eat / Leave A Comment

Ethan and Thanh hasn’t been to the original Kara’s Cupcakes in the Marina, and Chantelle hasn’t had many cupcakes since she’s moved to the city, so we had to go. After all, it’s the mother of all cupcakes in San Francisco. I think I’ve changed to a new favorite at Kara’s: chocolate velvet. The chocolate [...]

Cafe Ethiopia – Ethiopian Food in the Mission

February 28th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Ethiopian, Food / Leave A Comment

I haven’t had Ethiopian food in years. Chantelle suggested Cafe Ethiopia and we all loved it. Service wasn’t the most courteous, but I like blunt too. The food was great. Their injera (Ethiopian flat bread) was thin, soft, and slightly sour, kind of like eating a sourdough bread, but much easier to chew. Our favorites [...]

Mariah Carey Angels Tour at the Oracle Arena in Oakland

February 27th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Concert, Events / 4 Comments

Mariah Carey performed at the Oracle Arena in Oakland for her second-to-last stop in her ‘Angels’ tour. I didn’t have tickets and wasn’t planning to go, but fortunately for me, I scored a couple tickets on the day of. (Thanks KMEL!) The seats were not bad considering they were free – just about dead center, [...]

Prosciutto di Parma Pizza at Beretta

February 26th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Food, Tapas Bar / Leave A Comment

I love Beretta because it’s good food served til 1am everyday. Phil was in town and we needed to grab a late dinner, so we went there. Every time I go I always have to order a pizza. I haven’t been too fond of their pizza because their crust would always be too soggy, preventing [...]

Southwestern Chicken Hash at Delancey Street Restaurant

February 26th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under American, Food / Leave A Comment

I’m actually quite impressed with Delancey Street Restaurant. The food isn’t excellent, but their Sunday brunch is a step up from your regular chain diner. The portions are generous, and the prices are low. I tried their Belgian waffles – the flavor was there, but it was too soft. I like my Belgian waffles crispy. [...]

French Macarons at Sandbox Bakery

February 25th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Bakery, Food / Leave A Comment

I can’t believe it but for once, I was actually a bit disappointed with Sandbox Bakery. (They were on a roll, too!) Mae and I saw that they had French/Parisian macarons, so we had to get them since we’re big fans. The macarons came … soggy? Maybe they just weren’t made fresh that day. I [...]

Lunch at Kome Sushi Buffet in Daly City

February 25th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Chinese, Food, Japanese / Leave A Comment

It’s not too often that an all-you-can-eat buffet impresses me, but the new Kome Sushi Buffet in Daly City did the trick. Ridiculously long line aside, this buffet is actually worth it. I went for lunch time on a Saturday and they had a lot to offer: sushi, salad, Chinese food, dim sum, noodle bar, [...]

French Cruller at Bob’s Donut & Pastry Shop

February 20th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Bakery, Food / Leave A Comment

This is my second weekend in a row at Bob’s Donut & Pastry Shop. I really shouldn’t let this become a habit because this can’t be good for me, but it just tastes so good. I can’t even look at a donut the same way again after having experienced a fresh, fried donut. This time, [...]

Must Eat BBQ Beef Brisket at Tommy’s Joynt

February 20th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under American, Food, Must Eat / Leave A Comment

I’ve been going to Tommy’s Joynt now for years and it’s the one place that has stayed consistent in terms of quality and price. My most favorite thing there? Their BBQ beef brisket. The meat is always tender and the BBQ sauce offers a light, sweet taste. They also pack a lot on one plate. [...]
