Oysters @ Hog Island Oyster Co.
One Ferry Building San Francisco, CA
I can’t go to the market and leave without a half dozen or more of these luscious oysters. Add a little hot sauce on top – even a breakfast beer, this is defo the first stop.
-
Braised Beef Cheeks @ Coco 500
500 Brannan St San Francisco, CA
Loretta Keller’s braised beef cheeks are decadent and dreamy. I want this dish on its own with a large glass of rhone red.
-
Rapini Olives Lemon Pizza @ Uva Enoteca
568 Haight Street San Francisco, CA
Owner Boris Nemchenok worked for me at Otto in NYC before heading to his home town and opening up this cozy and rustic enoteca. Their pizza is simple, great but really flavorful!
-
Barbecued Willis Ranch Pork Spareribs @ The Slanted Door
1 Ferry Building San Francisco, CA
Charles Phan does everything perfectly - these spareribs make chinatown look like it missed the boat.
-
Grilled Sand Dabs @ Tadich Grill
240 California St San Francisco, CA
Or try the Grilled Petrale Sole. Classic place, timeless dish - this is not a mesquite grill!!
-
Crab Louie @ Swan Oyster Depot
1517 Polk St San Francisco, CA
Ketchup and mayo were never cool at my school with seafood, but this is the definitive LOUIE!!
-
Cannondale Pizza @ Pizzeria Picco
316 Magnolia Avenue Larkspur, CA
The Cannondale Pizza rocks! House-made sausage, peppers and onions. My buddy Bruce Hill runs this Mill Valley ground zero for the delish. All the pizza combos are intelligent and interesting. Do not skip the soft serve ice cream!
-
Burger @ Zuni Cafe
1658 Market St San Francisco, CA
House-ground hamburger on grilled rosemary focaccia with garden lettuces, aïoli, and Zuni pickles. I love the roasted chicken, but those Zuni pickles put me in a burger state of mind.
-
Dim Sum @ Yank Sing Restaurants
49 Stevenson St San Francisco, CA
Still my fave 30 years later - this is the real thing with a hundred options on a given day.
