Brunch is one of my favorite meals – relaxing atmosphere and comfort food, accompanied by good conversations. It’s been a while since I had the time to enjoy brunch, so recently I made plans with a girl friend to check out Fig Tree Cafe in PB. I had a Groupon deal, and it seemed like [...]
I love bringing friends visiting from out-of-town to Extraordinary Desserts. Last time, I brought S’s sister (The Eating Monster) there and she loved it. This time, our good friends R&V were visiting from the Bay Area, and we decided to meet up and enjoy some desserts. S loves danishes, and that night they had a [...]

When Sidney came back to Norcal in March, he wanted to visit a jeans shop in the Mission District of SF – which gave me an opportunity to explore food opportunities nearby. I wanted to find a nice, quaint lunch spot – and Blue Fig seemed to be the answer. Tucked away on the corner [...]
You all have probably figured this out by now, but.. I am an undergrad at Duke Univ (currently in my fourth and final year!). We have these things called food points, which are basically pre-paid dining dollars that we use to eat at any dining location on campus. On Saturday, a few friends and I [...]

It’s a nice little bakery on the corner of 9th St & Perry St, and around lunchtime on Sundays, it is full. They have your normal assortment of [...]
