Suzu Noodle House
1825 Post St (inside the J-town building)
(between Fillmore St & Webster St)
(415) 346-5083
After four hours, two glasses of warm water, and one hour “researching” on Yelp, I am still thinking about ramen. Suzu, what have you done to me? I finally went after Sarah had mentioned this place countless times as being a close, reliable place for some cozy hot broth and ramen noodles. Yes, many diehard Yelpers know about it, and it is quite controversial, depending if you know your ramen or not. I currently do not, and probably never will know what true homemade ramen noodle soup should taste like. But I’ve learned a few things:

Cafe Colma (inside the Lucky Chances Casino)
1700 Hillside Blvd
Colma, CA 94014 // (650) 758-2237
With a huge new cemetery under construction across the street, and hidden inside a casino in South San Francisco, Cafe Colma is quite an uplifting experience. Okay, I was being sarcastic, but my friend and I decided to check this out for lunch one Saturday. Why? Because I’d never been to a Filipino restaurant before, and I’d heard from some Meetup folks that this was a dive worth exploring. Plus how often can you claim to have eaten in a casino…minutes from San Francisco?

Primo Patio Cafe
214 Townsend St
(at Colin P Kelly Jr St)
(415) 957-1129
Closed Sundays
If you’ve got a hankering for a combination savory ‘n sweet brunch, Caribbean food will hit the spot. Humbly situated next to the “Marina in South Beach” wine bar known as District, Primo Patio serves its food on a covered back patio with decorated walls that are supposed to make you think you’re in Jamaica somewhere, as opposed to some urban jungle in San Francisco. We were the first ones there Saturday morning and the heat lamps were still firing up, but by noon, the place was packed. Luckily I had my puffy vest or I would’ve had to swap seats with Stein-er.
