How would you like your lion, sir?

April 5, 2010

I spent the good part of a rainy Easter Sunday wandering around the Mish looking for some Easter treats.  There were none to be found.  What I DID find, however, were two grocery stores on the same block with the same name: Casa Guadalupe.

The smaller one is beside “Mision Pie” and has a #2 on its banner.  (We’re assuming the bigger one down the road is #1.)  In any case, it’s #1 in my books. They didn’t have any xocolate eggs.  They DID have this:

Simba?

Are these lions free-range?  Factory farmed lions are the WORST.

Freaky Bunnies at Al’s Cafe (Good Food!)

April 5, 2010

The next time you’re on Mission Street past that corner where is starts going diagonally, check out this charming little resto run by ORIGINAL SAN FRANCISCANS.  It’s called Al’s Cafe (Good Food), and it’s been around since that big earthquake in 19whateversomething.  Luckily for everyone, all of the wait staff survived that brutal disaster, and they’re still serving up some good home-style cookin’ (just like ol’ Al likes it!)

Let me tell you, this Al guy knows what’s up.  He also has a flair for decor:

What an egg-cellent display!

I recommend the fish:  It comes with lemon, pepper and optional Miracle Whip.  If you find an old lady hair in your food, don’t worry about it!  It’s all just part of the charm at Al’s.  Now what do you want honey? Lemon?

Good Friends, Good Fiber

I woke up this morning with a song in my heart (and a wicked hangover from the delicious bevs Robby and I purchased at Glooncey’s!)  My totes necessary quest for a soy latte led me to the awesomest little grocery store.  It’s called “DeLano’s IGA” and you can hit them up on South Van Ness, near 23rd!

Their binned granolas really knocked my socks off, as did the piping hot vintage tunes that quelled my mega-brain-pains.   Super stoked to try their sushi.

Also, be sure to swing by the cereal aisle and grab a box (or two) of this:

I’m really feeling this.  Good omen? I think so.

Armstrong out!
