while in san fran, we hit some restaurants worth writing about: va de vi, and the san franciscan. of the two, the san franciscan was better - in taste, value, and service. i had a wonderful spring salad (with pears, walnuts, and tangy dressing) and a blue cheese-coated flank steak with fluffy, mouthwatering mashed potatoes. of course, i forgot my camera, so i have no pictures to show you from the san franciscan.
va de vi had fabulous small-portion dishes, which are meant to be shared. the service was uppity and the atmosphere a bit stuck-up for my liking, but the food (and wine, from what the hubs tells me) was really amazing. pictures are a few of the dishes we tried including ahi, pepper-flaked pasta, jerk chicken, asparagus and fries. i'm getting hungry just thinking of the dishes!
