Great lunch with Besaw’s Cobb Salad, and a steaming cup of Rabbit Soup with Seasonal Vegetables on the side. Hit the spot.

Isabel II
Ventured back to Isabel after the nice meal there last week. Today shared a plate of lettuce wraps, and ordered from the special board getting fish tacos with beans & rice. The fish was fresh cod, grilled not fried, and tasted wonderful. I am really ready to try breakfast here. Table next to us was doing…
Acapulco’s Gold
Acapulco’s Gold, at 2610 NW Vaughn. This is not a chain-restaurant; Far from it. Sitting in the shadow of Montgomery Park, on a street with a lot of history, this place has some good and filling noonday grub. Speaking of history, the music playing today took me into a complete time warp. Pouring out of…
Seres
Had a nice meal at Seres, in the Pearl District. Classic Szechuan and multi-regional Chinese restaurant, with a strong emphasis on sustainability. Inside, the ceiling towers high above with a clean, open, industrial loft feel. Nice windows with lots of street side people watching. Had the hot and sour soup and loved it. It was…
Isabel
Had lunch at Isabel, in the Pearl. Chef Isabel Cruz serving a “blend of Puerto Rican, Cuban, Mexican, Japanese, and Thai cooking.” Okay. All I know is lunch was delicious, and I am coming back! Enjoyed a dish called Double Happiness. Crisp brown rice and seasonal vegetables with marinated beef and chicken and a side…
SILK Special
The Beef Stir Fry was on special again at SILK today so we stopped by. It is sooo good! Told our server they should add it to the normal menu, and he agreed. He said everyone is going nuts over it. Just the right sort of summer lunch…light but filling, incredible flavors, texture, the veggies. Of…
Besaw’s
Got to Besaw’s before the 11:30am lunch menu started, so we just did breakfast for lunch. I had the breakfast burritos, my buddy had the “breakfast burger”? Yikes! He said it was great. Check out the fries…they are really quite “light” cooked up in extra virgin olive oil and sprinkled with herbs and garlic. Everything covered…
por que no? (Revisited)
Brought my Sweetie to Por Que No?, on Mississippi. She saw the pics, from the other day, and said she had to go. We both had the delicious fish tacos, and vowed to make our own version of them soon, at home. I also had a carne asada taco, which was great. Super crowd pleasing…
SILK
Lunch at SILK Vietnamese Restaurant & Bar today. Had the salad rolls, which contain a mixture of pork, shrimp, lettuce, bean sprouts, mint and vermicelli noodles rolled in rice paper. Served with a rather bland peanut sauce…I asked for chili sauce, on the side, to heat things up. Entrée was the lunch special. The server…
