Hilda & Jesse
I’ve been meaning to eat here for awhile, but since it’s more a brunch place (and we don’t often brunch), I never got around to it. They just earned their surprise Michelin star recently, so I at least thought we’d try them for our weekly dinner (they’re open Thur, Fri, Mon for dinner). They have…

Prik Hom
Was just looking for something pretty quick and easy, but tasty, so we decided to revist Prik Hom on Geary. They have a seasonal menu, although the last time we were here it was also summer so some similarities with the menu. I started with their Ultimate Thai Iced Tea. Not sure what made it…

Momofuku – Las Vegas
Last dinner in LV. Didn’t want French again although I was tempted to go to Guy Savoy (next time). Ended up going to Momofuku in the Cosmopolitan. We had eaten at Momofuku Ko the last time we were in NY which is now closed. This is obviously more casual than Ko was and that’s all…

Joël Robuchon
I wanted to eat here since the first time I ate here, it was one of the best dining experiences I had, so I couldn’t pass up an opporunity to dine here again. I first ate here 5 years ago to the date and amsuingly, they sat me at the same table, in the same…

Kame Omakase
I was trying to figure out where to eat tonight. i was thinking sushi since I had Italian yesterday and was going to have French tomorrow. I did some quick searching on google, yelp, tripadvisor, and reddit. AYCE (all you can eat) places are apparently very popular here in LV, but that’s not what I…

Esther’s Kitchen
Wednesday’s dinner courtesy of Steven was at Esther’s kitchen. Nice cocktails – I had a refreshing seasonal tequila and carrot juice based drink. Food was generally tasty. Grilled peaches was a nice starter. The bread and the butters were good, but not spectacular (give me some Tartine country loads or some Acme…). The tuna starter…

Hell’s Kitchen – Las Vegas
Late lunch/early dinner. Was curious what this restaurant would be like since we had tried Ramsay’s kitchen in January. I went with the 3-course prix fixe since I wanted to try the beef Wellington anyway I thought it was OK for the price, which was relatively modest. The bulk of the cost for the tasting…

Tiya
I had read about this restaurant, but with our schedules I hadn’t been able to book it until now, so I didn’t really remember what to expect. I just knew it was an Indian restaurant and that we’ve been searching for another decent place ever since Indian Oven went downhill, Dosa went out of business,…

Black Oak Coffee
More coffee for Andrea (I’m already sufficiently caffeinated), this time a pour over. This was the previous location for Flying Goat Coffee that moved to a location more central in Healdsburg. But this space is much bigger, so they have room to do pour overs which they don’t at the newer Flying Goat location. I…

Plank Coffee
Tasty coffee and pastries here. Place was packed for breakfast and for coffee. Andrea had the Lavender latte which fortunately wasn’t too sweet like a honey lavender coffee. I had the Cinnabang latte which was their Bangkok latte (latte with sweetened condensed milk) with an addition of cinnamon, also fortunately not too sweet or overly…
