Parachute is sooooooo good. Might be top in the city for me. Ate these on the water with a crème brulee shakerato.
I got the samosa, passionfruit vanilla cube, banana pecan, and bowtie.

Recommendation Request Any good red bean bread in SF?

10 Upvotes

I’m craving the red bean buns (danpatppang) I used to eat in Korea. Does anyone have a favorite spot in SF for those?

The Japanese bakery versions I’ve tried were a little too sweet for me. I’m also not a fan of Paris Baguette. Chinese sesame balls with red bean filling would be great too.

Thanks in advance!

Arrived right at opening on a Sunday afternoon at 1130am.
We had 3 ppl.
The house made spicy sauce is SO good! I highly recommend getting it!
I got the ninniku tonkatsu ramen. The broth is SOOOO good too! Very flavorful.
The ramen was okay. Broth saved everything.
Out the door was $27 including tips and tax. The ramen alone was $19/$20?
Easy to park or I got lucky to get parking in front 🎉
I will definitely come back if I’m nearby!

Review Naya Cafe - HORRIBLE Service and horrible experience

43 Upvotes

the waitress was so rude … they seated us and didn't take our order for 15 min+ and then when we raised our hand to ask for water, she said she saw us and didn't even want to take our order because we were being rude by putting our hand up… I've never heard of this service before at all in any place I've encountered.
we came back to speak with her / the manager. when we talked to her about our experience, she just said we were invalid to feel the way we feel and told us to fuck off, threatening to call the police.
I will never give business to this establishment again as this was the worst restaurant service I've ever seen. I've never heard someone deal with a customer this way by cursing us out and tell us the deliberate words of "fuck you".

I am taking my first trip to San Francisco this week. I have done some research and booked reservations at The Progress, Ernest and 7adams. For Saturday night, I am still deciding between San Ho Won or Rintaro. I have a chef counter/bar reservation for each. I know they are slightly different experiences but was curious if anyone has an opinion on which one to go with. Thank you in advance.

Recommendation Request Best Texas Bbq in SF

11 Upvotes

My brother is coming soon and he has a very specific request to eat Texas bbq. I’m looking for fall off the bone, authentic bbq! Give me your best recommendations please. No budget constraints, no neighbourhood constraints. Being able to make a reservation would be great but we are good with waiting in line if we have to

Edit for context: this is my brother’s first time in the US so I just wanna give him the best experience possible. He’s not demanding for it. SF has a lot of good food eg. Vietnamese, Italian. He just thought that a city with that much good food from other cultures would also have good American bbq
