One of the best things about returning to Chinatown was the opportunity to enjoy more Chinese food. After stopping by Portsmouth Square, I had dinner at a Cantonese restaurant. When I had dinner in Chinatown on Day 7, I had calamari and only calamari. I was determined to get veggies this time. To ensure I got my greens in, I had the chicken salad (marinated roasted shredded chicken breast, crispy vermicelli, lettuce, and parsley mixed with salad dressing).
San Francisco 2016 Food Diary, Day 7
I spent a big chunk of Day 7 in Chinatown. Surprisingly, I didn’t eat a whole lot of Chinese food. (There was more Chinese food coming up in the near future though.)
Francisco met me for breakfast at Café de la Presse. Café de la Presse is conveniently located around the corner from where I live. But the convenience doesn’t end there. It’s directly across the street from the Chinatown Gate. A perfect spot to begin the day before traipsing around Chinatown.
San Francisco 2016 Food Diary, Weekday Edition
3 days in a row, I had good meals out on the town. Not bad for a day (well, 3 days, actually) that was originally unplanned.
On the 1st day, I had dinner at the historic Old Ship Saloon. It’s outside the Financial District, so I was surprised that it’s closed on weekends. I got the buttermilk fried chicken and fries with garlic pepper. Basic, and basically good!
San Francisco 2016 Food Diary, Day 6
Francisco and I had breakfast at the Pier 39 outlet of Boudin Bakery. Boudin has been around since Gold Rush times and is famous for its sourdough bread. Breakfast was terrible (not unexpected for Pier 39 dining). I had sourdough French toast with cinnamon, sugar, whipper butter, and syrup served with season fruit. The French toast tasted reheated. I got a chocolate croissant because it really good in the case. With tax and tip, it cost $5 and it was lousy.
San Francisco 2016 Food Diary, Day 5
After Francisco and I rode the bus across San Francisco to the Richmond District, our first stop was the popular Blue Danube Coffee Shop for a yummy breakfast. I had French toast–brioche, cream cheese, caramelized apples, and berries. I washed it all down with a strawberry bliss smoothie–strawberries, bananas, and OJ. Like I said, yummy.
