San Francisco/Bay Area

I actually spent half a year living in The Netherlands and Absinthe Brasserie & Bar brought me back to those times. Absinthe breathes old European feel with an innovative and creative menu that represents San Francisco and California tastes with West Coast flavours.

BJ’s Restaurant & Brewery doesn’t only have a dirty name, but it has chain written all over it. Little did I know, since I was playing tourist in San Francisco. It’s famous for their signature Chicago style deep dish pizza and pizookie dessert!

I went to Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto’s restaurant Morimoto Napa in Napa Valley, California. The cuisine is eclectic Japanese fusion fine dining in a posh atmosphere. What was supposed to be just drinks, turned into trying his most famous Toro Tartare, Fig Tempura and “Bubble Tea”.

Fashion + Food. That’s pretty much my perfect combination, so I was all over Sift Cupcake & Dessert Bar which operates from a clothing store. Yes, it was really cute, pink, and girly as expected, and it’s been named #1 Cupcake & Best Cupcake in Napa Valley, California.

Joe’s Ice Cream in San Francisco, California is an old fashioned ice cream parlour serving home made ice creams prepared by the Japanese family that owns and operates it. It offers some unique Asian flavours such as green tea ice cream.

Blood, guts & organs. I’m not really one for offal (internal organs of a butchered animal) but when it comes to trying the specialties of a world renounced chef? I’m game! It took maybe the first bite of Chef Chris Cosentino’s dish to convince me that offal is awfully good.

Visiting the original location for Chef Thomas Keller’s Bouchon Bakery was carved into my itinerary and it’s perhaps one of the most popular tourist foodie destinations in Napa Valley, California. I had to try his world famous TKO, Chocolate Bouchon as well as other baked goods and pastries.

I can’t stop laughing as I write this post. It’s a place where the dress code is probably pajamas, or at least if you wore them nobody would care. I tried it, honestly I did! And nobody batted an eye.
