San Francisco is considered one of the best food cities in the United States, but it wasn’t always that way. It wasn’t until the late 1970s that chefs exploring new and creative ways to use ingredients and incorporate global flavors found a home in the city. By the 1990s and early 2000s, those chefs had become part of the fabric of the city itself with restaurants like The Slanted Door, Delfina, and Aziza laying the groundwork for lasting culinary greatness. While many of those influential early restaurants has since closed their doors, some have become beloved permanent fixtures on the SF food scene. From Greens to Lazy Bear, these 10 restaurants helped to define our city’s culinary landscape over the...

Well hello, Happy 2023! I popped in spur of the moment a few days ago to share some weekend bargains with you, but I'm considering this my first official post of the year. Today I wanted to share a big wrap-up of some of our recent highlights. I basically went back over the past few months on my camera roll so here's a big -mostly family stuff- recap! Some of you have followed for so long and are always sweet to want to keep up with personal stuff, I'll be sharing a more project related update in the next few posts. We take a day trip to the Dallas/Fort Worth area a few times a year just to get away and...
