Jack London Square's restaurant scene is constantly changing, but the addition of Noka Ramen was incredible! This was Julia's pick on a rainy Sunday evening. I wish we had just cut to the ramen, even though the appetizers were also really delicious. We had crispy brussel sprouts, shishito peppers and truffle fries with the most divine dipping sauce. The spicy ground pork ramen, though, was the highlight. It was soooo good, but we were so full that this was probably the FIRST restaurant club ever that we took home leftovers. And ramen the next day did not disappoint! Oh, and per annual tradition, we had White Russians at Forge prior to dinner. Salut! (December 4, 2022).
Restaurant Club started in May 2005 with Julia, Gail, Dionne and Stephanie, who all take turns picking the restaurant of their choice. Three main rules: (1) the person choosing must pick a restaurant they've never been to; (2) ordering dessert is mandatory and (3) guests must be female. We're eating (and drinking) our way through San Francisco...
