rice pudding is like creamy tapioca. loving cup serves different delicious rice puddings. you can also order lots of different toppings to jazz it up. i got the madagascar vanilla bean (the best vanilla comes from madagascar) rice pudding with a chocolate ganache bottom and english toffee topping. wowza! i was loving my cup.

For all you meat lovers, Kufuya is the place for you. Thinly sliced beef (or lamb) is dipped into a a rich, spicy miso broth. They provide lots of garlic and peppers to spice up your ponzu-ish dipping sauce. You also get fresh veggies, tofu and noodles with the meal. They also offer sushi and other japanese dishes.

My first real souffle experience was at Cafe Jacqueline. Jacqueline makes many varieties of savory souffles but my favorite by a mile is the strawberry souffle. Light, airy and perfectly sweet from the fresh strawberries. Its like eating warm ice cream.

If you like hollandaise sauce, you will love Zazie's poached eggs. The sauce is creamy, mildy tart from the lemon juice and just plain yummy. Add some salty proscuitto and marinated tomatoes, you have the best eggs benedict in the city.

Butterfish, walu and escolar are different names for the same fish. Whatever you call it, it is delicious. Not too many places offer walu, even less on a sashimi platter. If you like white fish that melts in your mouth, walu is for you.

Juicy burger with cheese and TONS of mushrooms. And a total bargain. They have great onion rings too.

Some people love belgian waffles but I much prefer the classic-style of waffles with small squares. Manor's waffles are nice and crispy and have a great eggy flavor. Even when you drench your waffles with syrup, the waffle's flavor shines through.

The House of Prime Rib is a San Francisco landmark serving what else, mouth-watering and melt-in-your-mouth prime rib. Perfectly marbled, this prime rib is the ultimate meat-eater's dream. Served with their famous salad, mashed or baked potato, yorkshire pudding and creamed spinach. And if you finish your entree, they offer another thin slice to top a great meal off.

Pearl’s is one of the few restaurants in the city that serves buffalo burgers. Buffalo tastes very similar to beef but has less cholesterol and fat than chicken. I ordered the Phat Bobb which was cooked to medium rare and loaded with BBQ sauce, cheese and onion rings, this burger was awesomely big and delicious. Wash your burgers down with any of their milkshakes – my favorite is mint oreo.

Dojo literally means “place of the way” in Japanese but is usually referred to as a place of training. Well, the people at Ramen Dojo seem like they’ve been training a lot and have mastered spicy ramen cooking. Which makes sense since Dojo is in the exact same place as the old Santa Ramen and is actually owned by the same people. I love spicy food so I was excited to try a ramen house that only serves spicy ramen. I ordered the spicy garlic pork broth - regular spicy. all bowls of ramen comes with fried garlic, fried ginger, quail egg and 2 slices of pork belly. You order extra pork belly, kim chee, corn and lots of other toppings. Dang, my bowl of ramen was a karate chop to your face of flavor and spiciness. Can’t wait to go back to Ramen Dojo and get schooled.
