San Francisco's Food

3/20/2016

Everyone knows San Francisco for its hilly streets and Golden Gate Bridge, but there is so much more that makes this city so incredible.

My younger brother (Zach) and I traveled to San Francisco, California for the first time last Saturday and just arrived home late last night from our amazing adventure. One thing that fed my interest, literally, was San Fran's incredible abundance of food culture. If you're craving Mexican, Mediterranean, Italian, Vegan, Kosher, Persian, Hawaiian and beyond, you can find it ALL in this city. You'll also probably encounter people from every country in San Fran during your visit, or close to it at least.

Here are some of the best food around town that we encountered but there is so much we missed out on and will have to wait for San Fran round 2!

This was our first meal out last Sunday morning for brunch: perfectly cooked egg scramble with artichokes and spinach, whole wheat toast and a nice size bowl of fresh fruit.

Then there was Blue Hawaii Acai Cafe. This place was so fun, and delicious! Acai are blackish-purplish berries from South American palm trees loaded with antioxidants. This supposedly small, but in my eyes large, cup was filled with frozen acai (similar to sorbet but with no added sugar), fresh-cut bananas, blueberries and strawberries with a drizzle of honey and a handful of organic granola on top. It was heavenly delicious. Definitely worth the $8.00 splurge.

Walking down the street in the Embarcadero area, we passed by a truck with two "Naked" employees standing outside handing out cases upon cases of its new fresh-pressed juices. From Beet and Bright Greens to Pineapple, there was something for everyone's tastebuds. But, the Bright Greens was my favorite, as you can tell. It was extremely fresh tasting with the perfect hint of sweetness. Well done, Naked. 

I paired my juice with a Japanese salad dish, including fun ingredients like BBQ eel, cooked edamame and seaweed flakes. It was delicious and something so unique from my typical salad lunch. Eel is my new favorite with its sweet, tangy flavor!

Finally, the totally FREE ice cream with ANY TOPPINGS WE WANTED from Facebook's headquarters in Menlo Park. My brother and I were fortunate to have a connection who works for Facebook and therefore get a tour!

First off, Facebook is an absolutely amazing place to work. Zucks serves his 3,000 employees breakfast, lunch and dinner, snacks, does their laundry, provides a free, complete gym and so much more. Not to mention his campus is so fun with lots of fun colors, inviting buildings and great people with unique personalities. Definitely a work hard, play hard environment. 

Anyways, this was the frozen yogurt I snagged from him. It was delicious! I topped the tart and vanilla flavors with chocolate chips, granola, pineapple and strawberries, oh and a HUGE dallop of whipped cream...mmm my favorite. Yep, it was heavenly. 

These were just a few of my delicious foods I found around San Francisco. I cannot wait to get back there, if not move there at some point in my life. Such a beautiful place, with such beautiful food.
