Recently updated lists from Steph P.
Really Out There Dude (5)A list of my ROTDs, because I can :D |
Playing Tour Guide (10)Because there's so much more character to SF than Pier 39, I take my visitors to these unique SF sights and shops. |
Burmese, please! (3)Don't even try to ask where they get their tea leaves. It is top secret. |
Sew what? (5)I like to pretend that I can sew. Here are some places to facilitate my delusion. |
Got Pork? The official slogan of F/Pilipino cuisine. (6)So you won't find pork at Mitchell's, but you sure as heck will find a lot of pork at these other F/Pilipino establishments. |
Da Bulls. Da Bears. Da Deep Dish. (3)This Chicagoland native loves her some deep-dish pizza. For a big fat slice of my home away from home, check out these joints! Happy heart-clogging! |
Fried Chicken = My One True Love (8)I am in love with fried chicken. And fried chicken loves me. Here are some places where I have sought after the endorphin rush of my union with this crispy, succulent gift from the food gods. |
Overrated Club - Bay Area Chapter (11)...droves of you love. I say, "Meh." |
Diving into Ethiopian/Eritrean Delights (4)Wash your hands, then get them dirty! Ethiopian/Eritrean (nearly indistinguishable, as most establishments will cite both as their style) food is one of the most fun and tasty culinary adventures around. Wonderful among friends and a belly-full alone. Try out some honey wine while you're at it. Be pepared for strong spices and sauce under your nails...this is not for the OCD or the faint of heart! |
Hey, it's better than dumpster diving. (4)Here's a list of thrift & vintage stores to help you put together the hipster and/or ironic outfit of your dreams! |
