They have yummy cold noodle bowls, shrimp rolls, and other yummy delights. It was a nice day, so I got food to go and then went out back as sat near the water to eat.

I could hardly go wrong in a city like this, I would think ... I keep thinking about this meal too ... I didn't want to eat anything else the rest of the day because I didn't want the flavor memory to be replaced. San Francisco makes it easy to be a good guide.

I keep thinking about this meal too … I didn’t want to eat anything else the rest of the day because I didn’t want the flavor memory to be replaced.

The waiter was a gem. Finely honed sarcasm and wit, and his delight in finding customers who appreciated it. "This isn't a Beer glass". "How do you tell the difference between a beer glass and a wine glass, sir? .... the beer glass has beer in it". *g* "But this glass is an EMPTY glass - bring my beer!". *g* back. Service makes the meal as much as the food. The food was beyond excellent. I still drool (sorry) as I think of those dishes. And still laugh as I remember that we both got stuck in before remembering that the dishes were supposed to be recorded before they were demolished. I *am* easy when I visit SF. There are two reasons for that: the first is that K is a sublime guide. Everything she shows me, everywhere she takes me, every meal she suggests ... all a perfect pleasure. So why choose? The second reason? SF is the perfect city to visit: everything you see, everywhere you go, every meal you eat ... all a perfect pleasure . Go with the flow. And go to The Slanted Door. Eat Out or Eat In, you won't be sorry.
