Where I Go Out
Caesar salad
Full Bar, Music Venue, Restaurant, The Castro
"Always perfectly dressed and seasoned with the most deliciously crunchy croutons and of course the not-so-traditional addition of avocado adds the right amount of creaminess to the salad."
Ankimo
$$$, Japanese, Sushi, The Castro
"If there is ankimo (monk's fish liver) on a menu, I always order it. Eiji’s version is awesome. Not to mention that we share a common "super small restaurant" bond."
Phở
$$, Asian, Vietnamese, Duboce Triangle
"Everyone has their favorite pho spot in the city; this one is mine. It is conveniently located near my house, making it an easy hangover cure option, as well as being really delicious and family run. I generally get the #14 and make it spicy with lots of jalapeños."
Charcuterie board
$$, Outdoor Seating, French, Full Bar, Breakfast, Cocktail, South Of Market
"Chef Sal’s pork treats are always delicious. He is really good at what he does and is really passionate about it, which definitely shows through his products. My absolute favorites are the Tuscan salami, aspic, and lardo selections."
House of Prime Rib cut
$$$, Full Bar, American, Steakhouse, Polk Gulch
"No explanation needed for this delicious plate. It's a San Francisco tradition—one that is best accompanied with a martini."
