Marlowe

Marlowe - Nov. 5, 2010. Dionne's Pick.

Marlowe - not only one of my favorite girl names, but now one of my favorite Cal Cuisine restaurants. We've actual been at this locale before - when it was South. The space has a similar feel, with white-washed brick and reclaimed wood tables, but the food was far superior to South's. The menu was pretty short, but the options were really good. The hamburger was perfection - with bacon, cheddar and apparently, had a bit of lamb mixed in. I'm going back for that, because I had the tender, juicy, lovely pork chops. My favorite item is pictured to the right - brussel sprout chips! OMG. To die for. So so so so good. I had to order a second batch. Dessert was kind of boozy, but delicious - a whoopie pumpkin creamy mix in a Mason jar, and a heavy-on-the-espresso vanilla panna cotta. Delish!!!

Garcon: A French dining experience

Voila: Garcon was this months' pick. French food is always a lovely treat. This was a cool restaurant in the Mission District. I can't recall whose pick this was!  Can't recall any exciting news either, because I've fallen WAY behind on posting!! Mal mal!  (I think this was Dionne's pick)

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.

Nyum Bai - The Husbands Edition

 For the first time in 15 years....the husbands finally got to join us for Restaurant Club!!! The 8 of us had dinner at Nyum Bai, Cambodian restaurant. And it was a cheat, since Julia and Jarrod had been there many, many times before. We sat outside in the patio and had such a great time. Maybe in another 15 years they can join us again :)  Until next time, friends!
