Description:
COW HOLLOW. [Closed for remodeling until late 2009.] Founded by San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom, PlumpJack Cafe gets a built-in share of buzz and chatter. However, the restaurant's elegant atmosphere and creative local menu hold their own against the flash of celebrity. Seasonal menus present twice-cooked, braised veal shoulder osso bucco, pan-seared day boat scallops, and sautéed local petrale sole. They're richly highlighted by the carefully chosen yet affordably priced wine selections, which showcase California vintages and include a number of by-the-glass options. |

HAYES VALLEY. Remember the Alamo...for exceptional seafood that is! This popular restaurant, owned by the same man as the beloved Baker Street Bistro, is applauded regularly for fantastic food and reasonable prices. Salmon and crab cakes alone keep the place at the top of any food list, and fish can be sauteed, grilled, or blackened and then topped with any number of lush sauces. Everything is fresh too, from homemade breads to mussels and classic Continental desserts. A French tendency colors the menu, adding a touch of earthy sophistication. |
