Bushi-Tei


In the heart of Japantown sits Bushi-Tei. Surrounded by Japanese anime shops, hotels, sushi and karaoke bars, and the Japanese mini-mall, this restaurant is elegant and pretty, featuring Japanese-French cuisine. The meal started off with appetizers of lobster-crab salad, tuna tartare, and langustino frito (fried little balls of yum). Gail and I each had seared tuna on a bed of risotto with rock shrimp and curry sauce, and found it scrumptious. Dionne liked her Duck, and Stephanie gave a semi- thumbs down to her scallops :( The service was ...eh. But we enjoyed a nice bottle of Mondavi Reserve Cab (thanks, Jarrod!). Oh, and the desserts were a huge hit.

Julia's pick: April 23, 2010

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.
