Matterhorn


Steph's pick. Different and pretty good. It was kind of hokey. But we ate A LOT. We were so stuffed. The idea is to dip meet and cheese and bread into various oils and cheeses. This was the weekend of Hurricane Katrina so we had a not so fun chat about that. 9/2/05.

  1. Can you believe that this was the only fondue spot in the city (at least at the time)? True, kind of hokey old school Swiss theme but the cheese fondue was fantastic (as if gooey cheese and bread could ever not be). Grace was our first R Club guest (she continues to lobby for full membership).

Contigo: Kitchen - Cava

Noe Valley hotspot. Delicious tapas and cava. We favored the rose cava. We met for an early dinner since Contigo didn't take reservations. Despite the few stuffed shirts and babies (along with baby strollers, trikes), we managed to have yet another fabulous Restaurant Club. Favorites included patatas bravas, 2 kinds of flatbreads, mushroom stuffed calamari, gorgeous tomato salad, chorizo burger, scrumptious goat cheese and cured jambon, and for dessert: churros in chocolate sauce and Blue Bottle Coffee Icecream! Mmmm..... (oh, this was Gail's pick). Everyone present.9/18/09

Besharam - February 25, 2024

Julia convinced Dionne to select Besharam after seeing an episode on Check, Please Bay Area. It did not disappoint!! Located in Dog Patch (previously, a non-existent neighborhood), the food was gorgeous and delicious. It featured Indian street food, but unlike I've ever had before.   Great celebration of January and February birthdays!!!

La Urbana

La Urbana on Divisadero. Dionne's pick! This was a hip take on Mexian-ish food. "Modern Mexican Cuisine" they call it! I can't really remember how well we liked it since I got behind on my posts.  I'm sure we had margaritas! This was the first R. Club after little Stella's birth. This gathering was a toast to her, and Julia and Steph's January birthdays!  Here's little Stella! Jan. 26, 2014.
