I finally got a chance to attend the wonderful SF Dives Meetup gang that recently held an event at this Thai restaurant in the Tenderloin. Dragging Ms. Stein with me since I had no idea what to expect, we cautiously drove past the Mitchell Brother’s theater and tiptoed into this place.

Anh Hong
808 Geary Street
(at Hyde St)
San Francisco, CA 94109 (415) 885-5180
If you’re planning to go to Anh Hong to eat their Seven Courses of Beef (also known as Bo 7 Mon) dinner, here are some tips.
- Ordering the course for your group is not a 1-to-1 correlation. That is, if you have 7 guests, and they don’t all have bottomless pits for stomachs, you can place 5-6 _orders of_ the 7 Courses of Beef. I hope that makes sense. You will still be full.
- Go with a group. I’d recommend at least 5 people.

Tomorrow I get to dine out with some friends that are fairly new to San Francisco. Fairly new equals lived in the city less than 3 years. We’re going to Shalimar on Polk, a place that in my circles, is known for wonderful Indian and Pakistani food and value. That is, my South Asian friends love to come here.
To share other grub-worthy Indian food cheap eats with my friends, I started thinking what other places that I took for granted in San Francisco:
- Naan-n-Curry (though unfortunately they’ve had to increase their prices while seemingly decreasing their portion sizes)

The chain that bakes its own Vietnamese sandwich bread rolls, and sells a variety of Vietnamese sandwiches with other Asian snack delights, is set to open up a franchise in San Francisco. Looks like the store is slated to open in December 2006..no word on if they’ll be delayed or not.
I can’t wait. I discovered what everyone else living on the Peninsula already knows. Lee’s Sandwiches are pretty dang tasty. I visited the one in Fremont and ordered up 3 sandwiches for a team of us out helping with a team playing in a Washington High School volleyball tournament.
