Making A List: SF Mag's Once-A-Week Comfort Foods
In the SFC, summer means frigid fog, Giants losses, street festivals, funnel cakes at IHOP and ... "Best of" lists!
We already hit on SF Weekly's list earlier this month; here's San Francisco Magazine's list of the best comfort foods that are only offered once a week in their respective restaurants, with SF Mag's descriptions.
• Monday: meatballs at A16: "beautifully executed Italian classics with deep, mellow flavor. Paired with a good glass of red, they make Monday blissful"
• Tuesday: bouillabaisse at Mirepoix: "And that’s the fish they ladle out, along with mussels, clams, and a saffron aioli"
• Wednesday: prix fixe at Dry Creek Kitchen: "a hump-day only Family BBQ Night features family-style platters—laden with tri tip, watercress salad, and peach pie"
• Thursday: fried chicken at Magnolia: "fried chicken from free-range, sustainably raised local birds—with local, organic mashed potatoes and greens on the side"
• Friday: cherry cookies at Tea Cake Bakery: "like good old-fashioned chocolate chip cookies that collided with Cherry Garcia"
• Saturday: cherry cola baby back ribs at Home : "rich, sweet, slightly hot"
• Sunday: green beans at Dino's Pizza: "Simmered slowly with white wine, garlic, olive oil, and stewed tomatoes and topped with tangy feta"
