Hot n sour soup. Couldn't get into the place I wanted to go. Chinese motherfuckers straight up dorsia me. Went to a rival instead.


Blowing my own trumpet again but really cooking is the only thing I do completely ace, my H&S soup is immense. I even make the char sui (pork, yeah I know you don't want me eating it) for it. I might do that today. I make the char sui marinade in a big batch and freeze it so I always have it on hand.

I've found a Michelen star ramen place in SF which I'm going to give a go in a couple of weeks. First ramen that wasn't out of a packet I ever had was in SF and it was epic.

She splits her time between San Francisco and Brighton, giving out Werther's originals to men in leather trousers.

Ha, I've been away a lot recently, yeah. Got back to San Jose yesterday with no plans to go away again anytime soon. Fed up with battered knees and broken nails from luggage.

None! I spend most of my time at my soccer team's bar called Jack's in Japantown, Jake's Pizza in Willow Glen and Il Sognio which is a sports bar come Italian restaurant I go to to watch NFL and a few brewery hang outs on rotation depending who's where of an evening.

I do love a hot dog...I haven't heard of any of those :(

La Vics is slang for La Victoria Taqueria and there's a few in town, tang @Vagabond knows about it. House of Pizza is on Almaden and it's the best pizza I've ever had. Mark's Hot Dogs make some legit chili dogs and are beloved on Capital on the east side...

you guys should try Patxi's Pizza, I think there's one in North SJ and Campbell

make sure you get the honey sauce on the side, crust is made like cornbread

Jake's combination is pretty bomb~ but I think the one in Saratoga is better than the one in Willow Glen

I know the manager of the Campbell one through a local beer group but I've not been. They look awesome, I've never had Chicago pizza before.

I tend to go to Jake's because it's the closest place to walk to and I like the bar area to have a couple of beers and watch sport sometimes.
