The Cheeseboard - Best Pizza Ever

One of my life's mission is to find the best pizza ever and I am a little sad to say that I think the journey ended at Cheeseboard because I liked the trial process. Cheeseboard pizza is by far the best pizza I have had. The crust is perfectly crunchy without being too dry and the ingredients all were so fresh and tasty. They only make one type of pizza everyday but you can check out on their site what it is before making a trip to Berkeley to grab a slice.

Delica rf1





Delica rf1 in San Fransisco Ferry Building is a great place for a bite. I tried the Potato Croquette, Sushi rolls, Tuna Tartar appetizer and Miso Soup with sparkling wine and all of it was delicious. The portions were not too big and the flavors well well balanced. Even the fired potato croquette wasn't overhwelmin. This is a great place to nosh.

Happy Hour at Epic



The Holy Cow Happy Hour at Epic Roasthouse is really holy cow good! I loved that my dirty Martini was made with Russian Standard Vodka. Years ago I had a boss who use to go to Russia a lot for business visits and he always brought us back Russian Standard Vodka bottles. I was told that this is the best vodka in the world and can only be bought in Russia. Since I never had seen it at stores, I believed it and would savor every sip of the scarce vodka. I was delightfully excited to see that it was on the happy hour menu. I savored every sip of my martini!

Ti Couz



Ti Couz buckwheat crepes in Mission are delicious. The menu is great for first time crepe eaters (if there are actually such unfortunate people out there.) They pair ingredients for you so you don't have to choose. I had the caramelized onions with a lot of cheese. As you can see.



Also, I was told that in Paris you eat crepes with Cider. This turned out to be a perfect pairing of something savory with some sweet cider.

Farmer Brown


A couple weeks ago I went to Farmer Brown for their Sunday brunch buffet expecting to love it and I have to say I was a bit dissatisfied with the experience. As much as I wanted to love the place because of the restaurants commitment to supporting local and african-american farmers, using organic, biodynamic, and/or sustainably raised foods, I didn't find the brunch menu farm fresh. They didn't actually serve anything that was raised on a farm. Well, there was fried chicken and bacon so that could of been from a farm but there wasn't any greens. I really liked the ambiance and the drinks so I will give it one more shot. My first visit left me a little grim; hence, the not lively picture.
