As a responsible DD during my recent Napa trip, I had only option to do – eat. The deli at V. Sattui Winery offers a lot of freshly pre-made (oxymoron?) sandwiches. My favorite was their spicy Italian – ham coppa, saluma & mozzarella in a ciabatta bun makes for a perfect combo. Their sides were [...]

When people go to Tony’s Pizza Napoletana, they think of pizza, but I think of their meatballs, preferably their giant meatball. It’s as big as a softball, tender, moist, and the marinara sauce it’s covered with is amazing. Get it with burrata cheese on top or a fried egg or get it as is. It [...]

Everyone makes such a big deal about the macarons at Bottega Louie, but I’m still not impressed. They just don’t taste fresh to me. However, I do like dining here. My favorite dish of theirs, as is the same with most people, is their portobella fries, battered and fried, served with a side of aioli. [...]

Here’s the scoop: Family-owned business Romolo’s Cannoli & Spumoni Factory has been around in San Mateo for almost half a century, producing possibly the best cannoli in the Bay Area. Each cannoli is pumped to order, unlike most other bakeries where they’ve been sitting in the refrigerated display case for too long and have turned [...]

Best thin crust pizza ever at Tony’s Pizzas Napoletana? Quite possibly, with their margherita pizza deemed 2007 World P pizza Cup winner in Naples, Italy, and it doesn’t end there. Their appetizers are must-eats themselves too, such as the giant meatballs, or the mussels with chorizo. The food is definitely a five-star experience. 1570 Stockton [...]

There are so many new Neapolitan pizza joints in the city now, but Pizzeria Delfina remains my favorite. I always have to order their margarita pizza, which has just the right amount of tomato, cheese and basil. The crust is consistently thin and crispy, such that you can actually pick up a slice of pizza [...]

I always imagined Mona Lisa Restaurant to be one of those North Beach/Little Italy tourist traps, but it was a nice, sunny Thursday and they had seats outside on the shaded side, so why not try it? I ended up really liking it. The Don Mario pizza had a very thin and crispy crust with [...]

I try to lay off pasta when order food because it’s always so heavy, but I can never resist the Tagliolini Pepati over at Aperto Restaurant in the Potrero Hill, good for any meal – brunch, lunch or dinner. Tagliolini pepati literally translates to noodles peppered. It’s a flavorful pasta dish with pieces of smoked [...]

I consider Gialina Pizzeria to be a hidden gem for thin crust pizzas. Not many people know about it because it’s far off in the Glen Park district where most of the people who go there live around there. The restaurant is always packed and they don’t take reservations, but they do take same-day phone-in [...]

Barbacco may be my new favorite lunch joint in the Financial District, and just for their one item: the slow roasted shoulder porchetta sandwich. It has the perfect blend of sweet from the roasted grapes, savory from the asiago cheese, and juiciness from the pork itself. (Happy birthday, Lina!) 220 California St (between Front St [...]
