Another San Francisco Favorite...

The first time I fell in love with the Famous Ghirardelli Sundae was on a rainy day in Chicago with my dear friend, Naomi. She kept telling me about it and once I took a bite I understood the urgency in her voice when she said, "We have to go get one." Even if I described it's blissful taste my word just wouldn't do it justice. I know you're thinking, "What could be so great about a chocolate fudge sundae? Aren't they the same everywhere?" All I have to say is have a taste and tell me what you think.

Best Crab Dish!

I saw an episode of "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" on the Food Network where Tyler Florence (I believe) ranted and raved about the Hot & Spicy Crab from Penang Garden in San Francisco. Alas we went to SF and experienced the finger licking goodness of the Hot & Spicy Crab. The crab comes whole with the sauce and four buns for dipping. The sauce has a hint of sweetness and then the spicy kicks in but its not overwhelming (Note: I love spicy foods so my level of spiciness may differ from yours). Overall I give this dish a 9 out of 10 and must say that its worth the travel.
