I’ll be back someday. I promise!

Magnolia Pub and Brewery

After a long walk in the botanical gardens, my friend and I walked down Haight and found Magnolia Pub and Brewery. It was a godsend that hydrated our souls (dehydrated our bodies) and lifted our spirits. Delicious homemade cask conditioned ales brewed in the basement of their Pub! Total drinkability.

Udupi Palace

I was able to experience my first Southern Indian food! At Udupi Palace, a restaurant named after the city in South India notorious for the vegetarian cuisine, I ordered the Channa Batura. The channa part is the spicy chick pea curry and the batura (sometimes spelled different, like bhatoora) is a puffy fried yogurt bread. The bread was soft, chewy, sour and paired perfectly with the heat from the curried beans. Win.

Bi-Rite Creamery

Bi-Rite Creamery is:

• the ice cream shop to the amazing Bi-Rite Market
• organic and local ingredients
• cups and spoons are biodegradable
• tastes done with silver spoons
• made of Strauss Family Dairy
• rarely more than 5 ingredients (nothing artificial)
• daily changing, creative flavors
• delicious

Clockwise from top left: Vanilla Lavender (honey and lavender freshly gathered from nearby Mint Hill), Salted Caramel, Coffee Toffee (made with local Ritual coffee beans), and Creme Fraiche. All were outstanding, but I fell in love with the Creme Fraiche. Yum.
