I was surprised to find that my favorite thing at the Millbrae Pancake House didn’t turn out to be their pancakes, though their Swedish pancakes are really nice and smooth and pairs great with their lingonberry butter. Instead, my favorite is their fried chicken and waffles. There hasn’t been too many chicken and waffles that [...]

Another day in December, another day to celebrate my birthday, this time at The Kitchen in Millbrae. They don’t only serve good dim sum during the day time – their dinner menu is excellent too.

The desserts at Sweet Indulgence over in Millbrae is not bad. Their mixed fruit crepe with ice cream seemed to be really popular – a lot of people were ordering it. It was okay – a crispier crepe wrap would have been nicer. Their panna cotta is thick and creamy, so if that’s how you [...]
