Roadside BBQ - Southern vs Soul Food

Roadside BBQ
3751 Geary Blvd
(between 2nd Ave & Arguello Blvd)
(415) 221-7427

My poor friend ABM up and moved out of the Mission into the far reaches of the Richmond, all to cohabitate with his fiancee. This means that easy access to Popeye’s and other fixings that remind him of his hometown of New Orleans are few and far between (until Hard Knox Cafe opened up a branch, recently.)

Hard Knox Cafe: Coming Soon to the Outer Richmond (on Clement)

Eater SF alerted me to the news of Hard Knox prepping a space in the Outer Richmond for its soul food goodness. Their current digs are in the Dogpatch part of town, which I reviewed last year, so this new location amongst my peoples will be a welcome addition.

(Bryant, you’ll only have 5 blocks to go if you’re looking for some fried catfish, fried chicken, or delicious pork chops and cornbread muffins.)

I’m looking forward to the invite to check out store #2…and am hoping the garlic powder flavor that seemed to be pervasive in my pork chops during my first visit is remedied.

Olivia’s Soul Food (San Francisco Sole) - Lip Smackin’ Good

Olivia’s (to be renamed San Francisco Sole at some point)
4712 Third St
San Francisco, CA 94124
(415) 647-3663

Make sure when you decide to hit this place, that you get your driving directions down right. This place isn’t in the “hiply industrial” part of Dogpatch or Third St. It’s really in the Bayview/Hunter’s Point district. (How either of those are geographically separated, I don’t know. I seem to see them always lumped together, so I’m doing so myself.)

Mac ‘n Cheese Recipe - Quick and Easy

I finally got around to making Mrs. Eula J.’s easy macaroni & cheese recipe. It’s what’s gonna bring Velveeta back! Here’s my version of it.

Ingredients

  • 1 regular package of Small Elbow Macaroni (I believe this is about 12 oz.)
  • 1/2 lb of Velveeta Cheese (or the Lucerne knockoff…it’s a block of cheese product)
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 4 tablespoons Italian seasoned bread crumbs (optional)
  • Louisiana hot sauce (optional)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
