Lunette
We’ve been meaning to eat here ever since seeing it on thge Netflix show Chef’s Table Noodles (episode 4) which had a great story. Plus, we don’t often find Cambodian food. So after work (Andrea was in the office) we met up at the Ferry Building. The restaurant is very casual with only walk-in or…

Good Good Culture Club
We were down in the Mission for the first Mission Night Market. We had to figure out where to eat. Anything on Valencia Street where the market was happening was going to be a mess, so we were walking towards Delfina (which we’ve done take away many many times, but haven’t eaten in the restaurant…

Absinthe Brasserie & Bar
We (me, Andrea, Kirsten, Greg) were going to the first event of the KQED Reframe Festival and wanted to have dinner nearby. I booked us for Absinthe which conveniently about a block away.

Second time eating here (first time link here). Outside of restaurant is not very non-descript and not labeled at all. We were the first to arrive although the restaurant was fully booked for 5:30pm on a Wednesday evening, but in talking to the somm (this time we were seated all the way on the right…

Marufuku Ramen
Was going to lunch with one of my ex-coworkers. We had planned to go to Niku Butcher Shop for their wagyu smash burger, but since there was a fire in Niku Steakhouse, they’ve been closed for that service (boo hoo). Our original plan was ramen in Japantown so that’s where we headed. We had been…

Omakase
Andrea was out for her annual work dinner with her coworkers so instead of just staying home myself, I decided to go out for dinner. I decided on sushi and there were a couple restaurants I had been wanting to revisit, but I checked with Andrea which one she wanted to go to more between…
