West of Pecos



West of Pecos - Texas-style, ranch-theme, and southwestern-ish food at this cute spot on Valencia x 16th in the Mission. We were missing our fourth limb today, because Steph is ONE week from giving birth to her baby girl! We reminisced about how many kids have been born in our group since the start of Restaurant Club in May 2005!!!  It's crazy: Katya, Matthew, Nick, Izzy, and soon - baby Wiley. We agreed that R. Club shall continue so long as we are living and able :)

Food highlights: brussel sprouts (sounds bizarre, but this app was sweet, crispy, with some kind of delicious creamy sauce), and the lobster (or crab?) salsa thing was also pretty amazing. Green chile mac n cheese was mediocre. Gail and I ordered the artichoke filled with crab and shrimp for dinner. Very creative, and I thought, delicious. Not too heavy. Dionne had the big, juicy burger.

I loved the mousse we had for dessert because it was thicker than most.

Overall - great food, loud, but cute environment, and best of all, as usual: amazing company.

This was 12/7/13 - Gail's pick!

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!
