Sushi on the Run

If you enjoy a good sashimi then this is the place for you
so fresh! and generous portion of sashimi piece :)
this place use real crabs! not imitation one :)
Things you need to know:
the place is really small, so really not recommended for big groups and if you have baby this probably not the most family friendly restaurant :) there's no place for stroller. Yup! it is that small - -"
there's no bento, but don't worry i think you'll be full with the assorted nigiri :)

Onto the food: it's really awesome, besides chirashi dinner at tomi sushi, this place i think have the best sashimi :) don't look at the presentation because it ain't gonna be pretty looking (esp. for the rolls) but the taste is yummy :)

here're some recommended dishes:

seafood salad

assorted nigiri

pat's home run: unagi with avocado, macadamia nut and special sauce


and if you can't eat raw, i think the unagi temaki and salmon skin temaki will keep your stomach happy!

happy eating! XD

Cafe Jacqueline

this place is voted as #2 most romantic restaurant in SF
the restaurant is so quiet, dark lighting, candles at each table, mostly couples
there were six of us that night, after we came it's not so quiet anymore :p we were joking around saying that if there's someone who's planning on proposing it might not work because we had ruin the mood :p
tips:
- if you come here hungry and expect to be served fast then this is not the place for you. they serve all souffles dishes, appetizer through dessert in souffle form so if you know souffle it will take a good 30 minutes after you order before you can enjoy the food :) for couples: it's a good quality time right there! :)
- the souffle-size is massive! so sharing is highly recommended, we had 2 souffles for 6 people.

things that we order: are the grand marnier > the strawberry
because we got to eat right out of the oven, it's just so preciously yummy! :) it worth the wait :'p~

enjoy!

Food Review - theHouse

- 1st thing you need to know: the parking is kinda hard - -"
- the restaurant is pretty small, so it's always good to have a reservation if you're eating in a big group
recommendation/must have(s):
- Porkchop with pomegranate sauce, interesting combination :)
- The black cod, melt in your mouth!
i can't stop spazzing over these two dishes, it's savory+tender+juicy :'p~

asides from these two dishes we also ordered: the crabcakes, sofshell crabs, tuna tar2, seabass and risotto. I personally think the cod was better than the bass :) and as for the appetizer other than its cute presentation i didn't find the dishes impress me :) taste-wise
Presentation of the food was really cute and creative, my black cod comes with the bunny ears :)
