2014 - A New Beginning
Time literally flies. We all get busy doing, racing against the clock. Always wishing we have more time. Time, such a precious commodity.
I'm guilty of always wanting more. Case in point - I haven't had the chance to write about my food adventures after my Thanksgiving post.
So now that a clean slate of a new year is here, just like majority of you, I have an opportunity to begin anew. I resolve to write at least every couple of weeks at the very least.
One place I'd like to write about for January 1 - +Georges, a seafood restaurant in the heart of the Financial District in San Francisco. Chef +Michael Bilger (@ChefBilger) has developed a menu centered around sustainability, freshness and local sourcing. It's one thing to claim these practices but another to execute a menu that is not only visually appealing but more importantly, very tasty.
The first time K and I stumbled into this restaurant tucked in Fugazi Building, we didn't know what to expect. Pleasant surprises are the best and this intimate restaurant delivered. A few days before Christmas, we went there again with a group of friends and the same thing - from the appetizers to the main seafood dishes to desserts - nothing but oohs and aahs.
One hallmark of a good restaurant is consistency. Georges (www.georgessf.com) has it and I highly recommend you try the place out. Us folks in the Bay Area have been so lucky to be surrounded not only by water but also great farms so we have bountiful sources of seafood, fresh vegetables and fruits. Georges is one of those restaurants that is able to harness these blessings and pass them on via well-executed menu offerings.
Next time you're in SFO, saunter over. You won't be disappointed. Georges is located at 415 Sansome Street. They also have Happy Hour. Enjoy!
