No, I’m not talking about Rice-A-Roni. I mean, that would be the San Francisco treat, right? *wink*
I’m talking about…
Boom!
Sourdough, baby. Oh yesssss.
I had several things I wanted to do, see, and eat in San Francisco:
- Alcatraz
- The Ferry Building
- Millennium
- Greens
- Yogen Fruz
- Chinatown
- Sausalito
- Sourdough
I managed to knock one right out of the way the first day, another with my bloggie friends (and the help of a kind GM and gracious chef), a major one in hundreds of photos and then sorta-did one more on Saturday.
And while there are still many items on my list left to be scratched off (Foodbuzz 2011 may-haps?), thanks to the magic of the airport tourist trap shops, I was able to check one last item off my list…the day after my trip no less.
That’s right…I found this beautiful loaf of sourdough bread from, what I hear is one of the best in town for sourdough, Boudin Sourdough.
Of course you know how me and hubby roll – a fried cage free egg + 2 slices of fresh sourdough toasted with a dab of real butter.
I was like a kid diving into a new present Monday morning. A very sleepy-from-my-red-eye-and-only-1-hour-of-sleep-and-jet-lag kid, but a happy one nonetheless. The sour dough was crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and had that perfect hint of tangy flavor.
This was wonderful, but next time I do sourdough, I’m hoping to get one of those big bowls of soup from Fisherman’s Wharf! And perhaps I’ll grab one of those churros before heading over to see the sea lions sun-bathing!

I would absolutely love to go to Cali some day!
Did you work the day you came back on the red eye?
love sourdough bread.
YUMMMMMMMM! That breakfast looks amazing!!!
San Fran is the one of those cities I know I would ADORE, yet I still haven’t been!! Have a couple friends that work at Google there though, so hopefully SOON.
You know I’m wanting that bread, right? But wait! You wanted to eat Alcatraz? You so greedy.
Love today’s photos! Simple does it
I was there last week and most of this week as well! Of course I had to try Boudin–it was so good!
I also went to Cheesecake Factory one night and the Boudin sourdough FAR surpassed Cheesecake’s sourdough!
Oh Boudin is the best of the best of the best. Walking by their main restaurant/bakery by the wharf is incredible because of that rich sourdough smell.
Yummy looking breakfast!
