Earlier this month, I got to check out the much-anticipated (at least, for me) Local: Mission Eatery on 24th Street at Folsom. My Yelp review is here.
Now, on to the photos! First, the most lovely, fresh asparagus and poached eggs, with an out-of-this world sauce, on buttery brioche...
And, brown butter caramel-y french toast...

Then, this morning, we decided to head over to Ti Couz for a crepe and Bloody Mary (or "Bloody Maree," as they call it). They make their savory crepes with buckwheat, as all awesome creperies do, and mine was filled with almonds, sauteed mushrooms, and swiss cheese.
AB opted for the egg, ham and cheese and we were so excited to see the egg came sunny-side up, peeking through the top of the crepe. Gorgeous!
The Bloody Mary was a work of art too, with lots of garnishes--including a chilled, spicy shrimp. It packed a punch with lots of hot sauce, cracked pepper, and horseradish.

Last night, we paid a visit to ForageSF's SF Underground Market, where we feasted on everything from vegan currywurst, to bacon caramel candy, to mushroom empanadas, to mortadella. The highlight of the evening for me was SF Delicious' Salmon en Croute, with a garlic cream sauce, and topped with shaved asparagus. AMAZING. Unfortunately, the event was so packed with people, I could barely walk, let alone take decent photos of anything... so you'll have to make do with a photo of our loot from Urban Preserves:
That's all for now... does anyone have suggestions for any other restaurants or events I should check out? I'm always looking for new and exciting food adventures!
