Steps of Rome Caffe

Tuesday, May 31st, 2005

In North Beach there are a million Italian places but Jane knows her stuff and recommended this one, so we tried it out. Jane and I started off with the bruschetta, which was tasty though I wasn’t very good at keeping the stuff on the bread as I ate it. The key to a [...]

Lori’s

Tuesday, May 24th, 2005

Over by Union Square yesterday doing some shopping and Jamie was hungry so we decided to grab a bite at Lori’s on Powell. Lori’s is a cute little diner place which a nice selection of pinball games. The food seemed a little expensive but it was a bit of a tourist trap area so I [...]

Maya’s

Monday, May 23rd, 2005

Boring again, had a Maya’s chicken mole burrito for lunch. I was in meetings throug lunch time and it was almost two, when all the lunch places close in my part of SoMA, so Maya’s was just too easy. Read about the chicken mole burrito here.

Little Debbies

A light snack was had on the Half Moon Bay Beach of Little Debbie’s chocolate/cream things and cream-filled oatmeal cookie sandwiches, with milk. Yum!

Gordo’s

Sunday, May 22nd, 2005

What do you do when you’re in the Outer Richmond, surronded by great Asian places? Go to Gordo’s and get a burrito, of course! I had been to a Gordo’s once before when I was visiting Tantek but I’m pretty sure that one was in the Haight, while this Gordo’s was at 19th and [...]

Tony and Mary’s

Saturday, May 21st, 2005

Tonight I had dinner at my friend’s house where they were hosting a small dinner party. (And it was also their 13th anniversary.) The company made the night, but the food was great too. Started out with a light summer wine called (I believe) Lillet with a small orange peel in it. The food [...]

Luna

Saturday, May 21st, 2005

We had lunch at a great place called Luna in the Castro. It’s right next to the Body Shop, and you walk in and they seat you in a garden in the back which is a great atmosphere.
One of their specialties is Mimosas, so we got the “Mimo Combo” where you pick two [...]

Sushi RIKA

Friday, May 20th, 2005

It was late and we were driving around Chinatown looking for something open and good. Parking was non-existent almost everywhere (always a problem in this city) and nothing seemed open (”This would never be a problem in New York.”) when we spotted a late-night italian place with a parking space nearby we decided to go [...]

Quizno’s again

Friday, May 20th, 2005

So I’m a big dork but I grabbed the exact same meal again for lunch today, except I got sour cream Lay’s instead of Dorito’s, and I also got a chocolate chip cookie. The Carbonara is really growing on me, today it tasted pretty different from hte last time, it had more of some sort [...]
