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 [...]

I love Tropisueno. It’s definitely one of the best non-taqueria Mexican restaurants that I’ve been to. Right after I took that first bite of their complimentary tortilla chips and salsa, I knew the food would be good. Their ceviche tasted fresh, empanadas weren’t oily, seared sea scallops were cooked just right, chile relleno nicely prepared, [...]

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, [...]

I didn’t think I would ever get a chance to eat at Brenda’s French Soul Food again since I hate waiting in hour+ long lines, but thankfully, Thanh went earlier and helped me put my name down too. Total wait for me? About 20 min. And yes, the 20 min wait was so worth it!
Their [...]
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 [...]

The wings at So are very similar to that of its sister restaurant, San Tung Chinese Restaurant, but anyone who frequents San Tung knows that they’re not exactly the same. By coincidence, I actually had San Tung earlier during the day for lunch. The wings at So were bigger and its sauce was not as [...]

Ethan and Thanh hasn’t been to the original Kara’s Cupcakes in the Marina, and Chantelle hasn’t had many cupcakes since she’s moved to the city, so we had to go. After all, it’s the mother of all cupcakes in San Francisco. I think I’ve changed to a new favorite at Kara’s: chocolate velvet. The chocolate [...]

I haven’t had Ethiopian food in years. Chantelle suggested Cafe Ethiopia and we all loved it. Service wasn’t the most courteous, but I like blunt too. The food was great. Their injera (Ethiopian flat bread) was thin, soft, and slightly sour, kind of like eating a sourdough bread, but much easier to chew. Our favorites [...]

I love Beretta because it’s good food served til 1am everyday. Phil was in town and we needed to grab a late dinner, so we went there. Every time I go I always have to order a pizza. I haven’t been too fond of their pizza because their crust would always be too soggy, preventing [...]

I’m actually quite impressed with Delancey Street Restaurant. The food isn’t excellent, but their Sunday brunch is a step up from your regular chain diner. The portions are generous, and the prices are low. I tried their Belgian waffles – the flavor was there, but it was too soft. I like my Belgian waffles crispy. [...]
