Limon Rotisserie
The rotisserie chicken was listed as one of the things to eat before you die and I can see why. It is so tender and exploding with flavor. To some, it might be a bit salty but eat with rice or the tacu tacu and problem solved. The sauces that come with the chicken is so good. There was a roasted red pepper and chili sauce, a yellow chili and the chimichurri. If those sauces were available to be mixed with my veggies, I would definitely eat a whole lot more veggies. It might defeat the healthiness of the veggies but make them taste so much better. I looked at the dishes that were other people's tables and they look yummy too. They should be glad I didn't reach over and grab some.
Ike's Place
This may be too much information but whatever. I had a food-gasm. OMG. If I could find a boy that can make me feel like what Ike's sandwiches does to me...OMG! I had the menage a trois. The sandwich is best eaten hot and just get everything on it but don't change anything unless you are allergic to something. Ike knows what he is doing. I being the silly girl decided to add mozzarella sticks, don't do it. It was good but the sandwich would have been even more amazing without it. I am still thinking about the sandwich.
Miette's Ginger Snaps
Ginger snaps have a nice surprise to them. I am usually not a fan of them because well I don't really like ginger except on sushi. Back to the point, it's on the 7 by 7 list so I had to give it a shot. I have to say it's good, not something I would crave but overall a good cookie. I like how when you first bite into it, its sweet with a hint of ginger but as you are chewing it some more the flavor of the ginger becomes stronger. The flavor of ginger does give your mouth a nice kick but not too hard
Pagolac
I love beef so naturally I would try the 7 courses of beef. It was good but definitely it didn't do the beef justice. It is an experience that you should try but I don't think I would do a repeat of it. The first course was good if you like cilantro and onions and was sweeter than expected. The second and third course was tricky because there was cooking of the rice paper which isn't hard in nature really except when the bowl is too small. The rest of the courses were good but nothing too exciting. I think the fourth was the beef on a skewer. The fifth was a beef sausage wrapped in some green veggie. The sixth was the beef and onion roll. The last course is a porridge. Overall, another good meal and another thing checked off the list but I am not sure if there will be another repeat.
Delfina
Everything was delicious! It's a beautiful space filled with fun people and scrumptious food. I went with a group of six and it was so much fun. Go with a group so everyone can try a little of everything. The short ribs were fall of the bone goodness and they just melt in your mouth. The gnocci were so fluffy and eaten with a bite of tomato and cheese and it was a party in your mouth (and I don't even like tomatoes). The papadelle with pork sugo was what I got and I can understand why it's on the list. The papadelle just brought me back to Rome. You can taste the love that went into making it. It was delicious!
Bob's Donut
The apple fritters are a must and a great way to end the night. They are sweet but not so sweet that they hurt and there is a crunch to it. It is good the next day as well. The lady that works there is super sweet and the treats are cheap. After a night of booze and bad decisions, end it with a good decision and stop by Bob's.
La Taqueria
So if SJ has La Vic's and their orange sauce, then SF has La Taqueria and their green sauce. I am sure it is just a salsa verde but it is necessary condiment to making the food here taste even better. Got the carnita and chorizo tacos and ask thm to make it crunchy. It was so delicious and I am not even a real big fan of Mexican food. I preferred the chroizo, the kick from the meat and salsa was a party in my mouth. There was beans which i usually don't like but it help balance some of the heat. Great way to start the night.
