Asian Snacks Nestle Banana Kit Kat

April 29th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Asian Snacks / Leave A Comment

The banana is one of my favorite fruits, so I was excited to find that Nestle Kit Kat came out with a banana flavor, and in giant size too, perhaps to resemble an actual banana? However, what I forgot was that I usually end up not liking banana-flavored snacks. They just taste so artificial! And [...]

Must Eat Superburger from Super Duper Burgers

April 29th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under American, Food, Must Eat / Leave A Comment

The Castro finally has a burger joint. Super Duper Burgers is a no frills organic burger joint that reminds me of In-N-Out Burger with its very small and simple menu. The burgers were greasy in a delicious way, and the meat – fresh, non-frozen, organic, Niman Ranch cow patties  – was not cooked all the [...]

Must Eat Cookies from Anthony’s Cookies

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

The best cookies that I’ve ever had are the ones from Anthony’s Cookies. The edges are crispy, the middle is soft and chewy, they’re flat and easy to hold and bite into without making a mess – they’re perfect. I’d recommend any of their flavors, from their most popular cookies and cream to their more [...]

Green Tea Cream Puff at Beard Papa

April 26th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Bakery, Dessert, Food / 1 Comment

I know that Beard Papa has been overrated throughout its years here in the states, but I still like it. It’s not the best, but it’s always there for you when you need it, and their green team cream puff is one of my favorite flavors. As you can tell from the previous posts, I’m [...]

Green Milk Tea at Dessert Republic

April 26th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Chinese, Coffee & Drinks, Dessert, Food / 2 Comments

I like the green milk tea (奶綠) at Dessert Republic. Why? Because they use real matcha powder. You can taste the difference. That’s all this time! 138 Main St San Mateo, CA 94401 (650) 401-3570

Steak and Prime Rib at Epic Roasthouse

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

We celebrated Steve’s birthday at Epic Roasthouse. We went all-out. Only the best for Steve! To keep things short, overall, the food was not bad. Appetizers and soups were very good. As for entrees, I recommend ordering your meats more towards the rare side, though, because the plate is heated and tends to cook the [...]

Must Eat Salami and Coppa Sandwich at Canyon Market

April 26th, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under American, Bakery, Food, Must Eat / Leave A Comment

One of my favorite local delis is inside of Canyon Market in Glen Mark. It’s all organic, they have a huge selection of cured meats (and non-cured meats), and they also have a bakery and bake their own breads. Their salami and coppa sandwich, #1 on the menu, is one of my favorites. It comes [...]

It’s that time of the year again – Cherry Blossoms! Nestle Kit Kat came out with a Sakura (Cherry Blossom) Matcha Green Tea (桜抹茶) flavor. After having tried the wasabi Kit Kat and the matcha green tea Kit Kat, I’m starting to believe that anything Kit Kat and green is a good combo. The Sakura [...]

Must Eat Lychee Macaron at Paulette Macarons

April 23rd, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Bakery, Dessert, Food, Must Eat / Leave A Comment

I’ve always been a fan of Paulette Macarons, whether it be in San Francisco or in its original location, Beverly Hills. It’s good if you like your French macarons lighter on the outer almond egg white cookie and chewier in its filling. One new flavor I found there that I’ve never seen anywhere else is [...]

Brunch at Absinthe Brasserie & Bar

April 21st, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Food, French / Leave A Comment

I’ve been meaning to grab a bite at Absinthe Brasserie & Bar for a while now, ever since I watched Jamie Lauren battle it out in Top Chef season 5. I went in for brunch and was hoping they would still have the cold corn chowder that Jamie would always make on the show, but [...]
