Try the dunoc ham sandwich on whole wheat with herbed fronage blanc and tarentaise cheese served open face
The egg custard tarts here are the best & rival those found in Hong Kong. It’s worth the wait to get a hold of these buttery delicious treats. Just don’t make the mistake of only getting one! - Fiona
One of Fiona’s favorite brunch spots, Zazie is known for their perfect Hollandaise sauce and to-die-for potatoes. The potatoes are fried with whole cloves of garlic! Yum.
For the definition of comfort breakfast food, you don’t need to look any further than the bacon pancakes. - Seth
You can’t go wrong here, but the Lomo Saltado is a must. So simple and satisfying -- beef, french fries, onions, tomatoes and rice -- a perfectly well rounded meal. - Jeremy
The plates here are good, but the sandwiches are even better. What started as a farmer’s market booth now has 2 locations near each other in San Rafael, the “big place” and the “small place.” - Jeremy
You’ve never had Turkey Meatballs like this! On top of buttery Orzo, they’re perfect for a cold winter evening with one of their tasty reds. Don’t miss the Baklava either. - Jeremy
The Maryland Crab Soup is my favorite lunch option here. There is enough crab in the generously-portioned container of creamy soup to make it lunch for two. - Amy, head of social media at Foodspotting
The chocolate chip cookies here are Amy’s favorite outside of the ones she bakes at home. And Macchiato’s long, but quick-moving lines attest to the quality of coffee and espresso here.
Try the pan fried pork buns (sheng jian bao). I’ve tried them at many places since and never found their equal! (Bonus: The eight-treasure cake is not bad either.) - Alexa
For great, cheap snacks head to Yonsei University and seek out the Ho-tteok. This sweet little pancake is filled with brown sugar, honey, chopped peanuts, and cinnamon. Yum! - Ted
This is the only place I’ll go to satisfy the torta monster in my belly. Try the Tortas Con Jamon, Huevo Y Chorizo with a fresh strawberry smoothie or carrot & orange juice. - Ted
