After only two visits, this restaurant has easily become one of my favourites in SF! Any restaurant that serves my favourite dish of steamed mussels in a white wine and garlic broth is great in my books. Definitely helped that all the other dishes I've tried so far have been delicious! The prosciutto pizza was pretty amazing - they totally didn't hold back on the prosciutto, so it was nice and meaty... just how I like my pizzas! A very popular dish at Park Chow is the Smiling Noodles (photo #3 above). It's the perfect combination of Thai tanginess with a pinch of curry spice.

Not only is the food delicious, but it's conveniently located right by the Golden Gate Park in Sunset! Eat to your heart's (or belly's!) content and then walk it off with a stroll through the park. Done deal.

FOODIE FRIDAYS: BI-RITE CREAMERY

I can't remember the name of this flavour... my apologies!

Salted Caramel & Earl Grey Tea

Most of us in the state of California are experiencing an Indian Summer right now. The summer weather that didn't show during the actual summer months has come back with a mean vengeance. What better way to fight the heat than get some delicious ice cream? Bi-Rite Creamery is, by far, my favourite ice cream shop in the world. They've got unique flavours that rotate every day of the week. My flavours of choice are their renown Salted Caramel and Earl Grey Tea. I've only ever seen Earl Grey on the list once... so sad that it hasn't come back since the last time I tried it! If you live in or are visiting in San Francisco, I'd highly suggest heading over to Bi-Rite for some ice cream. If it tickles your fancy, you can also walk right over to Dolores Park to enjoy your cold treat. Head up to the top of the hill for a breathtaking view of the city! Have you ever been to Bi-Rite?
