Recently, during a week’s stay in The Mission District of San Francisco, I threw caution to wind.
Dinner At L’Osteria Del Forno
The beauty of this little restaurant is its size. Ten tables at most and there is almost always a line at the door.
St. Francis Fountain
I headed down 24th towards York. I decided that because it’s Monday, it would be a great day to go to the St. Francis Fountain for eggs and home fries.
Fun Factory Tour: St. George’s Spirits
How easy is it to find someone to go vodka tasting in the middle of the day on a Wednesday?
Punjabi Burritos
Off to Mill Valley to discover Avatar’s Punjabi Burritos, a fast food staple since 1989.
Mara’s Italian Pastries
It’s almost impossible to walk past Mara’s Italian Pastries on Columbus in North Beach without stopping in.
Tasty Fruitvale Taco Trucks
Real Mexican tacos have nothing to do with lettuce, rice, beans, and/or cheese. They have everything to do with the main ingredient that you order – meat.
My La Cascada Addiction
I love a good neighborhood taqueria. This one is in Berkeley’s Elmwood District.
Give Me An Acme Baguette Any Day!
Acme baguettes have a wonderful crispy crust, with soft, airy bread inside. Just like a baguette is supposed to be.
Thai Basil Is Too Iffy
Sorry, I can no longer recommend this once favorite Thai restaurant.
