Sushi Tadokoro
Tonight’s dinner was at Sushi Tadokoro. It’s located in Old Town in a small strip mall next door to a liquor store. You almost wouldn’t even notice the restaurant front since it only had minimal signage. We had an early seating for the omakase dinner at the sushi bar. Sushi Tadokoro received their Michelin star

Kusakabe
This week’s dinner was at Kusakabe. This place was recommended by the woman we were seated next to at the last Ritual dinner so we decided to give it a try. It’s right across the street from the Transamerica building. It’s a Japanese kaiseki style restaurant so we were very interested to see how they

Uchi
Last night’s omakase dinner with Trisha. My favorite dish was the negitoro roll, the fried tofu dish, and the eggplant.

Robin
This week’s dinner was at Robin. I hadn’t eaten here since before the pandemic, but Andrea had eaten here with Trisha since then. Back then, I really enjoyed the modern take on sushi and enjoyed the rap music playing as background music. So I was really looking forward to coming here again, but wondered if

Hand Roll Project
We’re looking for an impromptu dinner with sushi. This was a place I was curious about based on all of the hype it received in the press V V, probably because one of founders was Geoffrey Lee from restaurant Juni (one Michelin star) and they were expanding on the handroll concept. This restaurant currently doesn’t

I’ve been wanting to come back here…we last ate here pre-pandemic, although we did do take out during that time and as good as that was, it’s not nearly the same. Last time we ate here, we weren’t seated at the counter, but this time I made sure we were and that makes a big

Le Fantastique
Tonight’s dinner was at Le Fantastique, a new restaurant that opened up a few months ago, with French and Japanese influences. They boast a McIntosh audio system and a turntable to play vinyl which of course interested me. We had an early reservation (which we always prefer) and we were in fact the first diners

Sato Omakase
This is a new multi concept restaurant that just just added their 10-seat omakase counter a few weeks ago. Seating is not socially distanced like The Shota was, so was a little tight if you are concerned about that. Of course we went to the first seating since I’m old and like to go to

The Shota
Back to our regular Thursday evening dining routine. This was the last Michelin starred restaurant in SF at which we had not yet dined and was one added during the most recent guide. The restaurant only had 11 diners seated while we were there (pre-Covid, they sat up to 18). Decor was Japanese minimalist and
