I am not a cultist. The closest you'll ever see me to any cult following might be me helping you into your bunk after you've sipped the Phenobarbital-laced Kool-Aid. If you were all lemmings, I'd be there to help the infirm to the edge. Hey, that's…More »

I think when our family fled Bolshevik Russia through Harbin, China, to Shanghai and then tramp-steamered into San Francisco, my great-grandpappy had a Chinese fling or two. Vodka tends to make you do that. Anyway, we grew up eating Asian food.…More »

"Senfuk-you?"  He asked.
"No, silly, "Senfuk-me!" She slutted herself.

You're both wrong. It's "Senfuku" and they've been plying sushi here for years. It's a teeny little joint in a shady part of town (like most of 'Pedro) but it's cozy and cute…More »

This Japanese (Korean) eatery is your basic working lunch type joint with no stand-out specialties, frills or exceptional service. I've never tried the sushi here...raw fish being something I take serious and I've never been too awed by what's under…More »

This popular, trendy Japanese restaurant, nestled conveniently in the shadow of dozens of high-rise apartments and condos, is unique in one key feature I've found nowhere in all my sushi fare wanderings (a significant statement). Their sashimi cuts…More »

Fast-track the sushi? No domo.

A gal with a nice rack can work up an appetite working the racks at Nordy's Rack and, wearing heels, I wasn't gonna walk a mile of sidewalk cracks to feed my hunger attacks, so making tracks, I found Mitaki's, opposite a…More »
