I’ve been having camera problems lately so I didn’t really get any good pictures from dinner at Han Il Kwan. Anyway, good food, good company, nothing more to say. Happy Birthday, Jann! 1802 Balboa St (between 19th Ave & 20th Ave) San Francisco, CA 94121 Neighborhood: Outer Richmond (415) 752-4447

Jann and Steve came back from Las Vegas and brought be a nice little treat – French macarons from Payard Patisserie & Bistro in Las Vegas. I can’t say it’s the best, and I wasn’t too fond of their bright nuclear colors, but I did really like its texture. Hard, thin outside, soft, chewy inside [...]

Another year, another Taiwanese festival at Union Square. I attended the 2010 Taiwanese American Cultural Festival, just for a little bit. It was enough time to grab a bite and watch the opening ceremony where a group of elementary schoolers sang the national anthem. I wish this festival was a lot bigger, and I wish [...]

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 [...]

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

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 [...]

What I love about Big Sugar Bakeshop is that it rates a zero in the “pretentiousness scale” but a ten for good taste. It looks like a typical local cafe when you walk in, but their cupcakes are some of the best I’ve had, with the cakes all being moist, and the frosting being light [...]

Le Pain Quotidien is home of so many delicious foods to eat and to take home. What I really enjoyed there was their variety of spreads, specifically, their Brunette, which is a praline spread, kind of like peanut butter or nutella. It’s something you definitely can’t get just anywhere. Their jams are also very fresh [...]

I had my first caviar experience at Petrossian Paris Boutique & Cafe, but to be honest, I really don’t know much about caviar so I can’t give it much of a critique, though I did like it. Our original intentions of dining at Petrossian was just for dessert, but Petrossian is known for caviar, so [...]

Best fried chicken wings, ever! Hands down! BonChon, for the win! The meat, very juicy, and the skin, thin and crispy, together, packed with a hot and spicy kick – I still remember every last bite. The drumsticks were good too, but I prefer the wings because it has a better crunch to meat ratio. [...]
