I'm convinced that most people don't know about this place.
Because - if they did -

Gluten free chocolate souffle's would be devoured by a fiend-ing line around the corner.

2. Lillie Belle Farms
For me - chocolate is seeped in nostalgia.
I can remember spreading chocolate hazelnut spread on toast in Jakarta.
I remember my first Snicker bar in Bali.
Lying stomach-down with a Kit-Kat bar - on my great Aunt's carpet in Wales.

I've always had the biggest sweet tooth. I rarely say no to dessert. I prefer french toast over scrambled eggs, and I even received a lovely set of painful stitches on my chin - as a result of a Bounty bar addiction (long story). I'm just plain ole…More »

4. Pacific Catch
Pacific Catch is a much welcomed solo dinner, when I'm looking to splurge a little.
I usually stick to their grilled salmon wasabi bowl with brown rice. It's filling, has a medley of different flavors, and their salmon is outstanding. Today I…More »

Category:
Bakeries
Neighbourhoods: Gourmet Ghetto, North Berkeley
The strawberry cupcake here is divine. Moist, tangy, sweet, and robust with flavor. It was so good, that I attempted to stuff the whole thing into my mouth with one solid, strange looking bite.
I was unsuccessful.
It took three.

I think I like to test the universe.
Like getting a big salad, drinking three glasses of water, and brushing my teeth extra hard today...only to go to 7-Eleven - and proceed to stuff a big red velvet cupcake in my mouth (seriously - those things are…More »

Category:
Bakeries
Neighbourhood: Marina/Cow Hollow
Kara's classic vanilla gets me every time.
Moist and heavy on the icing. Almost a little too much. But really - I'd rather take off icing - than pine for more.
I remember one of the first times I first tried Kara's intricately crafted creations. It was…More »

The Grove is my late night SOMA beacon.
Warm, inviting, and the place you go - where the guy behind the counter knows your name, suggests a nice pot of jasmine tea, and doesn't mind when you play the "High Maintenance Salad" role.
I adore the Grove.…More »

The free sample of Humphrey Slocombe Olive Oil ice-cream with a bite of lemon meyer cookie enticed me into McEvoy Rach.
I can never resist free samples.
Their abundance of fresh olive oil, and olive oil beauty products - kept me around.

When I first moved back to San Francisco I actually briefly worked nearby this place.

The "just-made" saffron ginger flavor here is the way to go.
Note that it has to be "just made" - for that decadent creamy custard-like consistency,
