gastronomic haikus and foodtography by Angela

Just eating my way through life and writing 17 syllables when I feel like it!

Make cupcakes, not war.
Smoke bacon, not cigarettes.
Pass food, not judgment.

A San Francisco Food Marathon!

I ate at all of these places in one day, can you believe it?

Papalote Mexican Grill
3409 24th Street
San Francisco, CA 94110
* approximate times

After a slow start in the morning, we headed down to the Mission to attack the triple threat burrito at Papalote's Mexican Grill ($20, as featured in Bobby Flay's throwdown). Definitely delicious shrimp, chicken, and steak, and splitting the burrito in half was the perfect portion, for feeling full and not sick.




The Cheeseboard Collective
1512 Shattuck Avenue
Berkeley, CA 94709

Definitely pizza to remember. Good flavor, and one of the most satisfying thin crust pizza crusts of all time. Also, the whole operation is employee-owned, so the vibe is pretty unique, relaxed and dignified, in a way.


Top Dog, near Berkeley. This place has way more hot dog flavors than I can handle.

Zachary's
1853 Solano Avenue
Berkeley, CA 94707
* approximate times

My first deepdish experience, ever! Had the mushroom & spinach and also the Zachary's special. I was partial to the mushroom & spinach. There was sooo much sauce! Can't say deepdish is my favorite, but it certainly wasn't bad.


Fenton's Creamery
4226 Piedmont Ave
Oakland, CA 94611
* approximate times

Then, we headed to Fenton's Creamery, where I met my match. The gigantic Fenton's challenge sundae...This is NOT recommended by me. Especially if you've been stuffing your face alllll day...
