Had an awesome time meeting Miss Brooke tonight!

Brooke is sassy, hilarious and I love it. When I arrived, she toured me around Pacific Heights, which I became obsessed with because its SO pretty!

And then we ate at probably one of my new favorite restaurants, La Med! This was my kind of place….really cute and quaint with awesome hummus. Healdsburg lacks good hummus joints.
I had a cup of chicken and rice soup to start—

And then we both ordered the same thing, the Mediterranean salad plate that came with salad, hummus, baba ganoush, tabbouli and potato salad. SO GOOD.

San Francisco has the best food ever. Enough said.
And then after our early bird dinner, Brooke drove me over to the Castro to hit up her favorite cookie joint.

It was actually highly inappropriate and hilarious. I chose a pumpkin cookie, which was delish:

And, on my way out, I stopped at Coffee Bean for a winter dreams tea latte because I’m addicted.

Everytime you show us food from San Fran it makes me want to visit more and more.

Your meal looks absolutely divine! Yum!! A good hummus is hard to find! Glad you found some — even if it isn’t in Healdsburg!

That salad plate looks awesome and much like my dinner from last night!

Jenna, You are doing yourself a disservice by not trying La Med’s Chicken Pomegranate. It is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!

Rachel January 7, 2010 at 9:27 am

Hot Cookie looks yum. You’re so lucky to get to go to all of these awesome restaurants and shops! I’m jealous :)

I would weigh a thousand pounds if I lived where you do. As it is I’m in trouble soon because restaurant week here starts in a couple of weeks. ;)

I have seen cupcake places – but a cookie place!! That is my kind of dessert shop :-)

Nothing like a good Mediterranean combo plate like that! We have this place here in Chicago called the Pita Queen that I love because they have the best veg combo plate. Just like what you have above, plus grape leaves and falafel!

I’m obsessive over Mediterranean food…especially hummus! That looks incredible. Now I want to go back to San Fransisco. hehe

Yeah. SF *does* have the best food. After I moved to San Diego I was like, You call this a latte? Needless to say, I didn’t stay long. Next time you go, check out Cafe Trieste. It’s me favorite coffee place.

Such pretty views and good looking food!!

Katie January 7, 2010 at 2:17 pm

There’s a bakery like that in the Marais area of Paris… lots of phallus-shaped breads!

Jenna, I love your blog (I am a bay area girl, runner, and foodie) but i am sorry…. HOOK ‘EM HORNS!!!!! haha enjoy the game :)

You and Homegirl should also try Anthony’s Cookies in the mission. No phallic cookies, but the cookies themselves are divine.
