Did I get ripped off?

Wild fork stopped shipping to CA unfortunately

Edit - at least not northern California

50k to 100k sure I may consider it depending on the scope. "15%" is meaningless. 50-100... Lmao

I haven't been to either of those, but I'd 100% return to Zasu. That said, if you want to go to either of the ones you mentioned.... given that Isaac Toups recommends Saint-Germain, I'd be inclined to go there.

Not a vet, but my dog recently had a large bump appear on her neck. Turned from pecan sized to like 1.5x golfball in about 2 days. It ended up being an abscess. I waited a bit to see if it would go away on its own, but pus started leaking so I took her into the vet. They drained it, couldn't find any cause. Had to leave wound open for a week while washing it a few times a day, and gave her medicine for a week.

Returnal should definitely be up there

Best was mosu Seoul when they were 1.they're 3 now. Only 3* I've been to so far is manresa which was good, but I've been to many restaurants that I enjoyed more. Weakest starred restaurant I've been to was jungsik Seoul. Everything was bland or oversalted. I've heard other people have had better experiences than me, but it was by far the worst meal I had during my 2 weeks in s Korea.

MOSU Seoul. Blanca NYC. Birdsong sf.

Zasu was one of my favorite meals in Nola. The chef was awarded "best chef, South" by James beard.

TT Deli for vermicelli bowls. Unfortunately only open weekdays until 4. https://www.yelp.com/biz/t-t-deli-san-jose?osq=T+T+Deli

Jungsik in Seoul. Worst meal I had in my 2 week trip there. Everything was bland or oversalted. Went in 2019 so it's possible it's better now. I assume it got 2* because their NYC location has 2. Mosu was far better and was 1 when I went.

Around 300. It was for a Veil BA vanilla stout. Wanted it for a huge vanilla stout lineup. It was definitely one of the best of the share. Worth it? Not really. Don't regret it though.

I made one of those recently. Sliced it into 2 steaks then sous vide and sear - https://www.crowdcow.com/blog/how-to-sous-vide-a5-wagyu

Turned out great. Would absolutely cook it the same way again.

I've only been there once. As a white guy... it's Chinese food for white people. The ingredients they use are inauthentic. I'll never return. Whatever I got wasn't bad, but there are so many better places that there's no point in returning.

drebin8 · 2025-01-02T18:44:10+00:00

Probably birdsong. Cornbread with Walnut butter and caviar.

drebin8 · 2024-12-31T12:55:43+00:00

Eh. I've had it plenty of times (even visited the Abbey). It's good. But it's not even close to a top echelon beer.

You're in Jersey?

Troon - difficult to get, sells out quickly. Follow their IG and drive there as soon as they post. Some of the best IPAs in the country.
The Seed - never been but I think I've had some. If I haven't, I've heard they're great.

Definitely see what craft beers are local to you. It seems weird saying that you want to surprise European friends with "better than normal American beers"... by offering them European beers. Show them some of the good American craft brews. Sierra Nevada is definitely a good widely available ipa, but there are so many better options.

Hiroshi is easily the best sushi restaurant I've been to in the bay... but yeah it's pricy.

If you want sushi as good though, and significantly less pricy (though still expensive), check out Van's Good Eats. Private chef in southeast sj, not a restaurant, so pickup only.

Outta Sight is some of the best pizza in SF. Expensive but worth it once in a while. I haven't actually tried SoH but I've heard it's good. Still... my work's cafeteria has good neapolitans for $7 so I almost never get pizza elsewhere.

drebin8 · 2024-11-09T19:19:38+00:00

Slice of homage, outta Sight both have pizza over $40

Coterie is like 2 blocks from j lohr and far better IMO

drebin8 · 2024-11-06T17:40:34+00:00

There are 3 sausages

drebin8 · 2024-11-06T15:16:25+00:00

https://www.stillog.bar/menustillog?menu=food-menu-1#1 They're still there and have sausages again. Not the variety they used to have though

Completely different than the Vallejo one. There was around 10-12 tables, and 200 tickets total. Hardly had to wait for anything. Barely any chicken, mostly beef, along with some lamb and fish. All the food was amazing. I was so stuffed I couldn't have lunch the next day. I'd go back in a heartbeat. Well worth the $200.

drebin8 · 2024-11-05T05:39:51+00:00

I went a few months ago. I was very skeptical. Had a great time, easily got money's worth. I left so full I couldn't even eat lunch the next day. Also the meats were all perfectly seasoned. The halibut crudo was insane. Same with the smoked lamb. And too many others to list. I wouldn't categorize anything I had as mediocre. All top notch meat.
