“Case of the Mondays” Dinner – April 6, 2009

Our foodie friends visited this weekend, so we ate (and drank) quite well. I experienced my favorite meal in San Francisco, so far, at Zuni Cafe. In addition to the famous “One Hour” Chicken, we shared appetizers and entrees among the six of us, including fresh oysters (better than the Ferry building, even!), marinated olives, a refreshingly zesty Caesar salad, fettucini, leg of lamb, and gorgonzola with honey for dessert.

It’s hard to beat a fabulous weekend of SF’s best eats, so Monday comfort food is in order. I’m re-heating ground turkey from last night (burritos) and making buttery mashed potatoes for an ad-lib shepherd’s pie. While delicious and hearty, this concoction is not the most photogenic of dishes, so I’ll leave the results to the imagination.

Bon Appetit!

Friday Night’s Pizza Night

Every Friday we order North Beach Pizza, and watch the latest from Netflix. It’s become a tradition that I look forward to at the end of a busy week. Their North Beach Special (with tomatoes added) is the next best thing to Ciro’s in Folsom, which is my all-time favorite. Get the Mountain Top, if you’re ever in Sactown!

Sunday Dinner at the Beach

After a failed, sand-swept attempt to visit Ocean Beach this afternoon, David and I found ourselves at Beach Chalet, just in time for “Crab Week.” We cracked our way through incredibly fresh crab (in season!), served handsomely in its shell for $25. Although we left with messy hands, you can’t beat a dish-free kitchen on Sunday!
