Mr.Jiu in SF downtown

🏮 Nestled in the vibrant lanes of Chinatown, Mr. Jiu is the only Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant in the San Francisco Bay Area. 🏆 🍽️ They offer a 5-course set menu that seamlessly blends Chinese and Western influences. The appetizers have a slight twist, while the hot dishes bring back the essence of Cantonese cuisine. 🥟 ❌ Not a fan of the scallop xiao long bao, but the creamy spinach, spicy oil-poached fish, and the aromatic egg-fried rice were delightful. The piping hot ginger cake brought the happiness quotient to its peak. 🍰 🎴 The menu cover is intriguing, featuring traditional Chinese Bagua symbols representing the four seasons, while the bill cover showcases the face of a Mahjong tile. 🀄️ 🚶‍♂️ Inside the restaurant, patrons buzz with excitement, while outside, the lights of Chinatown flicker in a captivating dance. A charming and romantic atmosphere awaits you. ❤️ #BayAreaFoodies #BayAreaLife #MichelinStar #MichelinRestaurant

Bay Area Food | Thai Breakfast with Tom Yum Soup Congee and Youtiao

🍲 Kan Kiin 📍 201 Southgate Ave, Daly City, CA 94015 ▫️ The newcomer to the Bay Area's Thai breakfast scene is definitely eye-catching, with its deep green color scheme and modern decor. The combination of Thai breakfast style and contemporary design is impressive, although the taste may not be as outstanding as expected. ▫️ The aesthetics are on point, from the utensils to the food itself. I love their simple yet stylish tableware collection. ▫️ We tried some of the recommended dishes, but feel free to explore other options. The dishes are decently prepared, nothing too extraordinary or disappointing. ✅ "JOK" Crispy Pork Belly The Tom Yum flavored congee is a must-try! Especially on a cold winter morning, it warms both the heart and stomach. The tangy and savory rice porridge paired with Youtiao is a delightful combination. It gives me inspiration to recreate this as my own breakfast! ✅ "HAT YAI" Fried Chicken & Vanilla Waffle Although it claims to be Thai-style fried chicken and waffle, there isn't a distinct Thai flavor. It's simply a regular fried chicken and waffle, decent but lacking any strong uniqueness. It feels a bit off considering it's supposed to be Thai breakfast. ▫️ One downside of this place is that it's quite cold inside... 🥶 Even after eating, it doesn't warm up. Lately, it seems like every restaurant I go to is freezing, not sure if it's just me... 🥶 #BayAreaLife #GlobalFoodies #WeekendInBayArea #Breakfast #ThisIsWhatIEat #MyBreakfast #WhatToEatForBreakfast #BayAreaCuisine #HiddenGemRestaurants #SanFranciscoFood
