I haven’t been going to Bi-Rite Creamery weekly like I used to. It all started with me going out of the country for a few weeks, then they closed for renovations and expansion. After finally reopening (and now with seats inside) they also came out with a new ice cream flavor: Meyer lemon. I like [...]

The sun finally came out so Helen and I ventured out to SOMA for some fried chicken and waffles at Famerbrown’s Little Skillet. Up to now, I still think they have the best fried chicken I’ve ever had – we actually ordered an 8-piece that came with two sides. Unfortunately, they ran out of grits, [...]

We weren’t originally planning on going into Xanath Ice Cream, but since we were parked right in front of it, why not? It’s all organic and I’m always down for gourmet ice cream. They’re known for their saffron ice cream. I wish it had a stronger saffron flavor though, and creamier would be nicer, but [...]

What I like about Gelateria Naia is that their gelato is made from local, organic ingredients. That and because they serve possibly the most Chinese flavor there is that not the average customer would want: ginger. It has a strong and spicy flavor that many people can’t handle, but I actually love it. Ginger gelato, [...]

At long last, after years of wanting to visit Tommaso’s Ristorante Italiano, I finally got to go (and I didn’t have to wait since other people waited for me hehe). Their thin crust pizzas taste very traditional, especially since its cooked in a wood-fired brick oven. Their spinach pizza was amazing, loaded with tons of [...]

I only found out about Fancy Wheat Field Bakery last week while driving down San Bruno Ave. By then, it was already closed, so I had to go this weekend. It reminds me of the bakeries in Taiwan, though not as large. Overall, everything seems okay. I tried their mango and strawberry mousse in a [...]

I needed last minute cupcakes for Valentine’s Day and Cups and Cakes Bakery came to my rescue. Their cupcakes are just slightly heavier than what I usually like, but to each his own. I’ve actually always been a fan of their cupcakes ever since I tried them a couple years ago at the Yelp holiday [...]

It’s been a while since I last visited Jubili Frozen Yogurt and Cereal. I still consider Jubili to be the original frozen yogurt joint that started the trend in San Francisco. Quality, cleanliness, and service haven’t changed since they opened a few years ago – still top-notch. They also have baked goods now, namely cupcakes, [...]

I never knew Daly City had a House of Silvanas bakery. I’m used to eating Sans Rival cake, usually from Goldilocks, but I’ve never heard of Silvanas, which is basically a Sans Rival cake in cookie form, until I found out about House of Silvanas. Delightfully [...]

I was in the neighborhood so I figured I should pay a visit to my favorite underrated bakery, Baked. I like their cupcakes. I really think they’re the most underrated cupcakes in the city, possibly because Baked is located in Potrero Hill – way out of the way from everyone else. Their cupcakes are always [...]
