Plow

If you consider yourself a breakfast or brunch person, Plow is the place for you. Located in Potrero Hill, this small spot specializes in serving breakfast and brunch all day long (by all day, I mean until 2pm). I don't consider myself to be one of these breakfast people I speak of, but after hearing so much about their lemon ricotta pancakes, Kelsey and I decided to give it a try. My oh MY we were not let down! The food is nothing too fancy or out of the ordinary, rather, its simply prepared, local, fresh, seasonal deliciousness. 

Equator coffee + warm homemade peach pie should be the start of everyone's morning

almond flour pancakes for Kelsey (gluten free!)

and lemon ricotta pancakes for myself

on our next trip we'll be having the softshell crab sandwich or the fried chicken sandwich for brunch!

Zazie Part Deux

Since Zazie is conveniently around the corner from my house, I had dinner there again last night, for the second time this week. Normally I don't like repeating things...outfits, songs, or restaurants, but Zazie's seasonal summer menu is too good to pass up!  On Saturday, I had fresh fettuccine, which I completely recommend. Saturday's dinner + last night's meal solidified my claim that Zazie is one of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco. It's a perfect setting for a quick week night bite, or entertaining guests and family in town, like we did last night.

a selection of French cheeses + figs for four of us to share

Salade Louis Malle: Spinach, caramelized onions, feta (normally gorgonzola, but I'm not a huge fan), with balsamic vinaigrette 

the fettuccine I won't stop talking about

Grilled Niman Pork chop with minted couscous 

Lamb Tagine: slowly braised lamb w/ tomatoes, eggplant, turmeric, cumin, saffron, almonds, & couscous

I had grilled mascarpone polenta cakes with spinach and mushrooms in a spicy tomato-chevre sauce

This doesn't look as good as it tasted, but we all split Crumble aux Fruits: Fresh fruit crumble served warm w/ creme fraiche + a scoop of vanilla bean gelato
