Verjus
This was my third, Andrea’s second time dining here. Last time we were here, it was a wine maker dinner which was pretty mid in part because they essentially served all 20 of us banquet style, although the first time I ate here we had just ordered a la carte and it was fantastic which

Rossi’s Deli
I had an appointment to get my Covid vaccine in the Castro since they had the Moderna one, but I had a bit of time beforehand so I was looking for someplace quick to eat beforehand. After some quick searching online and Eater’s list of best places to eat in the Castro, picked this place

Sorrel
Dinner event hosted by one of our VARs at Sorrel. We attended this same event 2 years ago and had definitely enjoyed both the food, the discussion by the panel, and talking to our fellow diners at the event. This time though, Andrea was sick so I ended up going solo. My account manager, reminded

Copra
This was our fourth time here at Copra. We ate here when they first opened and our last visit was last year for a champagne maker dinner. This time we came for Onam Sadya. My understanding is that sadya is a celebratory lunch, typically vegetarian, from the Kerala region of India and onam is the

Firefly
We were lazy and didn’t want to get groceries and cook so I started looking for someplace to eat out. So we ended up going to Firefly since it’s close and we’ve generally enjoyed the food when we’ve gone. Andrea started with the Baby Lettuce Salad and I had the Grilled Daikon Radish which we

La Lucha Coffee
We wanted a little pick me up so we stopped in at this coffee shop on Sanchez St. Andrea’s been a few times, but it was my first time since I normally don’t go our for coffee. Andrea got a latte and I got a matcha latte with oat milk. Decent and very friendly workers.

Dumpling Kitchen – Noe Valley
We hadn’t got grocery shopping, so we decided to eat out for lunch. We hadn’t been to Dumpling Kitchen in awhile. We ordered the Pea Sprouts w/ Garlic (one of Andrea’s favorites), Steamed Soup Pork Dumplings (i.e. XLB. I suppose they “Americanized” their menu a bit), BBQ Beef Ribs (to try something different) and the

Verjus x Rajat Parr
We had a wine maker dinner at Verjus with Rajat Parr who was previously the somm for the Mina group but now has his own wineries (we had not heard of them before). I’ve been wanting to go here with Andrea ever since I went in January, since I know she’d enjoy the food here.

Bones Bagels
Finally went back back here to get the bagel dog which I’ve wanted to do ever since we first visited. Andrea got the Veggie bagel sandwich with an every bagel and I also picked up a Brown Butter Pecan Cookie. The bagel dog was of course pre-cooked and was just sitting on a rack when

Niku Steakhouse
Jacob, our account manager, invited me out to dinner with Lionel, one of the reps. Not as many options on Monday, but this was a fantastic option. I haven’t been here since 2023 when Andrea and I last dined here and was definitely looking forward to it. We had a 6pm reservation and it was
