📍 Location Pho Ha Noi | Cupertino, CA10100 S De Anza Blvd, Cupertino, CA 95014 😋 Review I love Vietnamese food. The broth and noodles are hard to get right, but Pho Ha Noi nailed it. The broth was not too salty, yet still flavorful. The southern style pho is usually my go-to, but they have northern, thicker/wider style noodles that looked just as good. … Continue reading Pho Ha Noi
📍 Location Koi Palace | Daly City, CA 365 Gellert Blvd, Daly City, CA 94015 😋 Review Although traditionally a dim sum place, I came here for a Chinese style dinner. Koi Palace is a household name in the Bay Area, far from a small local restaurant. The sweet and sour pork was crispy and nicely decorated with the pineapple. I mainly wanted to showcase … Continue reading Koi Palace
📍 Location Arang | San Francisco, US Japantown1506 Fillmore St, San Francisco, CA 94115 😋 Review A Korean place in Japantown. It’s in kind of a hidden spot near the Peace plaza and the seating feels actually underground. The food was amazing. There might be some confusion with an older Arang restaurant that used to operate in years past. This Arang seems to be a … Continue reading Arang
📍 Location The Claypot House | San Francisco, CA Richmond1000 Clement St, San Francisco, CA 94118 😋 Review Once again, we’re back in the Richmond area. If you’re getting food from here, it’ll be a much better experience eating in. You’ll get to choose from a variety of authentic claypot choices (eel, Chinese sausage, spare rib, vegetable) and actually eat out of it. This Cantonese … Continue reading The Claypot House
📍 Location B Star | San Francisco, CA Richmond Area127 Clement St, San Francisco, CA 94118 😋 Review Burmese food! There is a much better known Burmese restaurant right along the street called Burma superstar, a staple of SF. However, there is always going to be a wait to get into Burma superstar. On weekdays all the way up to closing and definitely on weekends. … Continue reading B Star
📍 Location Teazzert Pho You | San Francisco, US880 Geneva Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112 😋 Review This has been my favorite Vietnamese restaurant since coming to SF. Located around the Excelsior and Cayuga Terrace neighborhoods, Teazzert Pho You is a true local Vietnamese restaurant. You get the feel as soon as you walk in. All the food felt homemade. I started off with the … Continue reading Teazzert Pho You
📍 Location Hong Kong Lounge | San Francisco, USRichmond Area5322 Geary Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94121 😋 Review Richmond, the “new” Chinatown in San Francisco. Hong Kong Lounge did not disappoint! All you could ever want from a dim sum restaurant. Portions were great, food was fresh, so many options. Definitely authentic Cantonese cuisine. The restaurant itself was very welcoming and busy especially during the … Continue reading Hong Kong Lounge
TLDR: Find and showcase authentic Asian cuisine in SF/Bay Area + Travel Authentic Asian restaurants are just hard to find. Google reviews/Yelp seem to never get the ratings right. I’ve been to 5 star rated Asian restaurants which ended up just not being authentic. Make no mistake, the food is still delicious, but just doesn’t satisfy my need for grandma’s cooking. Of course authenticity shouldn’t … Continue reading What is Asian Food Tours?
