In the beginning of December my girls and I took a mini vaca to San Francisco. Southwest was having a deal for round trip airfare from LA for $80 I could not pass it up! While in San Francisco, we explored various local eateries such as a Thai Restaurant, Tommy's Joint: a dive bar with killer eats, a small diner called Max's, The House of Prime Rib and of course, the trip would not be complete without a stroll down the Fisherman's Wharf. The food was amazing on so many levels. The incredibly fresh seafood at the Wharf, the various cuts of brined meats at Tommy's Joint and the luscious prime rib from The House of Prime Rib made this trip a memorable one.. Oh, and of course my girls made the trip amazing too! :) I feel like I only got a very small taste of San Francisco, and I hope to go back very soon... maybe this time I will drag Tone along with me!
Fisherman's Wharf
 |
| Sourdough Crab and Turtle Loafs from Boudin |
 |
| These crabs were fresh and super tasty! |
 |
| chopped crab |
 |
| Fried Calamari with fries |
 |
| Crab meat Po'Boy Sandwich |
 |
| Clam Chowder in a Sourdough Bread Bowl... incredible on so many levels |
 |
| This was by far the highlight of my day while at the Fisherman's Wharf. While waiting for our oysters to be shucked, we befriended the shucker and I told him that he was "making me a very happy woman"... kindness seemed to pay off because he gave us an extra oyster and a few crab legs on the house! Kindness wins again! :) |
 |
| Raw Clams were so sweet and yummmmy! |
 |
| Lobster Bisque |
 |
This poor little crab held on for dear life..Highly recommended Nick's Light House on the Wharf
one of the best oysters ever! |
Tommy's Joint
 |
| Turkey Breast Dinner was super moist |
 |
| Pastrami was killer and very tender |
 |
| Corned Beef was also very good |
 |
| BBQ Brisket was tender and amazing |
Max's Diner
 |
| Turkey Pastrami Melt with Sauerkraut was very flavorful but my only gripe was how greasy the bread was. I know it's a sandwich melt, but I didn't like the amount of grease on my hands afterwards. However, overall very tasty! |
 |
| Breakfast Scramble with Potatoes |
House of Prime Rib
 |
| I saw this beautiful, bullet shaped cart pull up next to our table and I was so so happy.... |
 |
| Starter Salad with House Dressing.. I loved the beets! |
 |
| Prime Rib thinly sliced with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes... the prime rib was fantastic. It was soft and filled with flavor.. if I wasn't dining with friends I would have literally licked the plate clean.. One of THE best parts of dining at The House of Prime Rib besides the amazing food and service.. if you finish your plate, they ask you if you want seconds.. |
Thai Food
 |
| Crab Noodles- a bit like pad thai but with crab meat |
 |
| Pineapple Fried Rice |
 |
| Eggplant with Beef |
 |
| Pad Thai with Chicken |
