I'd say food was at least 70% of our holiday. I'm currently planning a 30 stop food tour of New York at the moment, I can't WAIT!

San Francisco - The Elite Cafe - (the word cafe doesn't do it justice) Fillmore Street (between Callifornia and Pine) -

Monterey Bay sardines on crostini with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a touch of tapenade:


Scallops with tiny crisp brussel sprouts and roasted grapes with a balsamic reduction reduction:


Papardella pasta (wide ribbons) with a braised beef and smoked tomatoes – ( think rich tomatoes and bonfires) – absolute heaven:


Blueberry bread with lemon ice cream. These flavours compliment each other so well.



A half bottle of Ramey chardonnay (Russian River Valley 2007) completed the meal.

Wowee . thanks for this thread - got some great ideas now for SF and LA eats.
Cant wait to be posting our holiday food pics on here - although with the kids we are going to miss out on Gary Danko ( never mind, an excuse for an adults only return trip!)

thinking of cheesecake factory for our first evening in SF so we can take in the sights from Macys and you never can tell how hungry or not you will be after a flight

mmmm, i just munched 4 choccy biccies reading this thread now thats just not good for my holiday diet
Keep em coming folks x

if you're planning on it for your first evening I recommend a reservation. We waited over an hour for a table in the end and didn't eat until 9pm, I don't think we'd have lasted this long on a first night!

Thanks for the tip - we arrive in SF at 1.30pm so I was thinking 5-6pm for dinner but it is a Friday night so probably best to book as you say !

When I can gain possession of the PC again (from my childen!) I will post too. I'm on my iPad and I've no idea how to to it from here (they aren't online anywhere).
