Thirsty Tuesday (Is that a Thing?): Souvla's New Private Label Wine

I know what you're thinking. Another post on wine?? Okay, so it's been a big wine year for this little lady, but you know what? Girl's gotta grow up some time. In all seriousness, you guys already know that I'm a big fan of Souvla. So, when we were invited to celebrate Souvla's new private label Greek wines, we were there in a flash.

Food Friday: Bob's Steak and Chop House

Bob's Steak and Chop House 500 California Street 

There are some great combinations in life, classics, if you may. Peanut butter and jelly, wine and cheese, spaghetti and meatballs - the list goes on, my friends. One pairing that I haven't had for ages, but can never say no to is surf and turf. Ask yourselves - when is the last time you sat down for some delicious steak and lobster? If it's been too long to recall, I'm hoping this post will help change that. 

Stacker Style: Burgundy Wine

I know what you're thinking - is she turning into a wine-o? Perhaps - especially after my trip to France (but that's a story for another blog post!). In any case, before we get into the wine, I wanted to share a quick outfit post, since it's been a while! While I do spend more time capturing my eats vs. my 'fits these days, every now and then, I sneak a little fa-shun into this ole space to keep it interesting. After all, that is how this space on the interwebs started in the first place, right?

Food Friday: Eat, Drink (and be merry) SF

Eat, drink and be merry. Isn't that what it's all about? Give me a reason to celebrate food and I'm there. Just late last month, I had the pleasure of attending another year of Eat Drink SF at Fort Mason. (You may remember the last time I visited, here!) This year, I attended on Sunday, which was a special celebration in honor of the 80th anniversary of the Golden Gate Restaurant Association. On this day of the festival, "legacy restaurants" (those that had been open for at least 20 years) were present, sharing some special bites. Some legacy restaurants you may know of include Alfred's Steakhouse, Sutro's at the Cliff House and Tosca Cafe! Newer restaurants were present too, but it was the perfect mix of new and old that made the day special. A few favorite bites included: Pellegrino's salt and pepper fried chicken (yes, Pellegrino!), Teleferic Barcelona's "El Torito" (think: chorizo in a blanket), and Scoma's smoked salmon with cucumber + fresh horseradish. One thing I love most about San Francisco is all of the amazing restaurants and corresponding food festivals that highlight the talent in the bay. Eat Drink SF is hands down one of my very favorites. Check out the mouthwatering photos at the jump to see why!

Food Friday: Mason Pacific

Mason Pacific 1358 Mason Street

Mason Pacific, a quaint bistro located on the corner of Mason and Pacific, is unassuming to the eye, but filled with delicious bites and an extraordinary collection of wine. Once inside, your eye can't help but take you to the beautiful large glass windows, as classic San Francisco cable cars roll by. Chef Max Mickinnon crafted the menu, while sommeliers Dustin Wilson and Eric Railsback have curated the wine list. Mason Pacific recently reopened and I was thrilled to experience the restaurants brand-spanking-new dinner menu.
