Yesterday, I got to take a visiting Mastodon mutual to bao, the dimsum restaurant on Valencia St in the Mission.

It is one of very few places where you can have dimsum for dinner (sit down dimsum is typically a breakfast / brunch thing).

The standard was as good as any other high quality dimsum place I like. They have a much smaller menu compared to a traditional dimsum hall, but large for a Chinese restaurant in the Mission. They have all of the classics.

I would try everything there except the xlb (I’m picky and don’t think Cantonese people do it well). The standard dimsum classics (har gow, siu mai, turnip cake, woo kok) were all good.

They have plenty of veg options as well, well marked on the menu.

My favorite thing to do is to plan weekend trips with friends to neighboring cities outside SF with better immigrant food.

This weekend, a taco adventure to deep east Oakland and San Leandro; then Indian street BBQ kebabs in Fremont. (On different days)

I love to highlight the amazing immigrant run restaurants in the Tenderloin. I think I’ll do it again, this time writing about some new-ish ones.

1. Kimbap Heaven on Polk & Eddy

Probably the best kimbap I’ve had in SF. Very good range. They also have excellent Korean fried chicken (get the one covered in cheese if you, like me, love that flavor profile).

They also have a legit good range of Korean street food like ‘rabeokki’ (ramen and rice cake, together in a sauce).

My fave SF bakeries are the ones with more than one savory pastry.

So that’s Juniper, The French Spot and b. patisserie

Adding Arsicault and Neighbor Bakehouse

Yesterday, I went to a random intersection in San Lorenzo in east bay and I had the most delicious Colombian BBQ. There’s a collection of street food stalls on Hesperian Blvd and Paseo Grande, near the Public Storage, on weekends (go around noon). We found a cute little Colombian grill spot called Barril y Carbon. It was delicious. Some pupusa, churros, quesabirria and hibachi stalls too. None of these are on Google maps.

I am so thankful to immigrants for the delicious food I get to eat.

East bay folks: there’s someone doing RENDANG DANISH pastries (Sundays only at the Danville location and also Walnut Creek market)

I have to cross the bridge to get Nigerian food.

Confusingly this spot is now on Google maps as ‘Kojokojo’ but it used to be called Jolly Jolly

One of my favorite businesses in SF Japantown is Maruwu Seicha. Awesome cheese tarts and matcha drinks.

I was sad to see the Uzbek restaurant I loved close on Sutter St (Halal Dastarkhan) but a new spot serving the same food opened in its place. Hopefully the new owners will get the service and food issues sorted (Halal Dastarkhan opened early Covid and always struggled a bit)

This one looks like it kept all the good stuff and added a lot more homemade breads

I love the plov and the samsa

Two spots in south bay for Bangalore / Mysore style masala benne dose (dosas that are extremely crispy on the outside, very fluffy on the inside)

- Bengaluru Thindi in San Jose https://www.bengaluruthindi.com/

(Pre-order a week ahead and pick up on the weekend)

- Surya Darshini in Milpitas

https://suryadarshinicom.wixsite.com/sdhome

(Take out and delivery only)

#Food #BayArea #BayAreaEats #BAE #SanJose #Milpitas #MasalaDosa

South / south east bay has the types of dosas I want to eat (none in the city):

- San Jose: https://www.bengaluruthindi.com/store/

- Milpitas: https://suryadarshinicom.wixsite.com/sdhome

Both have pretty involved 'pre-order and pickup' logistics, but I'm willing to go through all of that for my favorite styles of dosa (I'm partial to the Mysore benne dose style with a shatteringly crisp exterior and pillowy insides)

There’s a little middle eastern sandwich shop that has a delicious ‘Cardi B latte’: coffee with milk, cardamom and brown sugar

Sandwiches are pretty good too

Sent out a newsletter based loosely on my congee toots here yesterday: https://buttondown.email/skinnylatte/archive/all-about-congee/

Bay Area congee restaurant recs, and also a list of recipes

#Food #Recipes #Chinese #Congee #SanFrancisco #California #BAE #BayAreaEats

Um, so I decided that my food rants and recs probably need a single home: https://jom.popagandhi.com/about/

You can also follow @[email protected] (altho you will also get my photography there, but I don't mind)

So it will be a food + film photos feed!

This is diff from my food newsletter which is a bit more long form; I'm also going to try to put out short videos there, and also figure out how to let people subscribe to categories (e.g. 'bay area', 'singapore', ' recipes')
