Morocco’s Restaurant in San Jose
Apr 7th
This weekend, Grace and I had the chance to try Morocco’s Restaurant in San Jose with our friend Jared. Given it was a wet Easter Sunday, there were only a 3 or 4 other groups in the restaurant. Since the streets were near empty, street parking was easy to find. There is also a huge parking garage across the street. Inside the restaurant, there was soft chatter of other diners over a live musician playing (what I believed to be Moroccan music) with a recorded track. The restaurant’s decor was well thought out. Everything from the fully decorated walls to the tent-like More >
Flavors of Ice Cream in San Francisco
Mar 16th
Victor and I had plans to go to the Shanghai Exhibit at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco and eat ramen at Katana-Ya this weekend, but we forgot about the Saint Patrick Day’s parade. So instead of going to the museum, we took advantage of the really nice weather and ended up going over to Bi-Rite Creamery for some ice cream!
Bi-Rite Creamery is off the corner of 18th St and Dolores St near Dolores Park. This little shop has limited seating inside but is always bustling with people. You can walk in and skip the long line if you are More >
Katana-Ya in San Francisco
Mar 14th
After Grace visited and enjoyed Zuni Cafe, we both decided to visit Katana-Ya, another restaurant on 2010 Big Eat SF: 100 Things to Try Before You Die list (which recommends the Chasu Ramen). And although chasu is delicious in ramen, I had to go with their Katanaya Ramen option, which includes corn, deep fried chicken, deep fried potstickers, and fresh seaweed on top of the regular toppings in a miso soup base. Based on the menu description, it looked and sounded delicious.

Zuni Cafe in San Francisco
Mar 9th
I recently discovered this list of good eats in San Francisco by 7×7. It’s called The 2010 Big Eat SF: 100 Things to Try Before You Die and I’m determined to try each one of these! I went to Zuni Cafe this past weekend with my best friend, Christine, and tried the roast chicken and bread salad.
Zuni is a two-story, corner cafe on Market St. They offer valet service for $10.00 but street parking is available. I took the BART to Civic Center and walked 10 minutes to reach the place. The location is small and space is limited. This means More >
