Gentle Friends, I've had quite a few emails about what the second half of my 10th Anniversary Gift-a-way was.... well here's that post a bit on the late side but better late than never..... I had in mind sending some things from the City that I felt would be well-received nd that meant something to me and things I did around town .... so after settling on what I was going to get we headed out to breakfast at the Red Cafe. A favorite eatery of ours that I talked about before... It's in the Mission district and I usually get chilaquiles...
... I've had these at lots of places but at the Red Cafe, their version included some fresh green pepper and onion.... one of my very favorite breakfasts!! Rico on the other hand usually gets...
... eggs, bacon hash browns with flour tortillas.... and a Coke!! So after breakfast, we headed across the street and up the block a bit to our very favorite bakery in the entire City.... Dianda's....
.... they make really super things... and here are some snaps....
... the cakes they make are top notch and in demand, so ordering in advance is imperative... the cases that line the shop on both walls are usually chock-a-block full...
... and the pastries and really tasty also... the ring looking things in the middle to the right are to die for, flaky and crunchy and they come in either almond or raspberry....delicious!!
... I picked up a box of assorted cookies here to include.... we also stopped off at Philz Coffee for some of their roasted beans.....
.... I also picked up an SF mug to round out the present - packed it all up and everything arrived at Donna's quickly for her to enjoy!!
