Wines by the bottle or by the glass?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can find it all in the Bay Area. We are, after all, a wine region.

There are 35 wines available by glass -- with a focus on the name-brand varietals from the regions best known for them -- and another 1,000 bottles in the collection. You can also become a monthly member and get discounts, if you plan on drinking there regularly.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.ameliewinebar.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Amelie\u003c/a> (Nob Hill): More of a wine \u003cem>lounge\u003c/em>, Amelie draws a crowd for its daily happy hours and inexpensive flights. Pick three samples for $10-15 (depending on the wines). The international list is extensive, with French tendencies, and the food is delicious. The small space gets crowded on weekend evenings though, so make reservations before you go.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.hotelbiron.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Hotel Biron\u003c/a> (Hayes Valley): Not actually a hotel, Hotel Biron is down a small alley off Gough Street. Though not as secret as it perhaps once was, the wine bar/art gallery still cultivates a speakeasy style and decor. There are about 50-60 wines available, many by the glass, as well as artisanal beers, coffee, and cheese plates.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.yieldandpause.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Yield\u003c/a> (The Dogpatch): With a focus on sustainable and organic wines, Yield opened 10 years ago in what was, at the time, an underserved neighborhood. Now, it's a popular spot for a low-key drink with a menu of local wines that change regularly, interesting vegan and vegetarian plates, and half-off carafes during happy hour. (It's sister wine bar, Pause, which opened in Hayes Valley in 2011, is also worth checking out, but expect a bit of a flashier scene.)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.thehiddenvine.com/\" target=\"_blank\">The Hidden Vine\u003c/a> (Downtown): The Hidden Vine started out in a genuinely hidden spot, but it was so popular the wine bar moved to a larger location in the financial district. Now, it's a hot spot for the professional crowds, who love the hundreds of bottles of wine, small plates and salads often made with ingredients from the nearby farmers market, and the hidden inside courtyard that houses a bocce ball court. Note: There's a $100 minimum for an hour of bocce, so get to drinking.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://20spot.com/\" target=\"_blank\">20 Spot\u003c/a> (Mission): It may be called a wine bar, but 20 Spot is probably just as well known for its food. The menu goes beyond your usual cheese and charcuterie. Expect oysters, deviled eggs with smoked salmon, and octopus with potatoes. Actually, don't expect exactly those things; the menu changes regularly. And, of course, there's also nearly 100 bottles and a selection of wine and beer available by glass in this ground floor of an old Victorian.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.birbawine.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Birba\u003c/a> (Hayes Valley): Yes, there are a lot of wine bars in Hayes Valley, but the small neighborhood spot Birba was a welcome addition when it opened in the spring of 2015. It's a tiny bare space, with concrete walls, but the feel is laid-back. You'll find a wide range of primarily European wines, and a few cocktails and beers. You can even order a gift box, which you might want to do for some of the particularly one-of-a-kind bottles. Try the tapas and sandwiches, and save room for the salted caramel pot de creme.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://terroirsf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Terroir Natural Wine Merchant\u003c/a> (SoMa): When it opened in late 2007, Terroir was something new and unheard of at the time: a wine bar that offered only natural wines, made with no pesticides, herbicides, or sulfur. Since then, it's become a bit of a pioneer. While the focus is on French wines, the spot also has added California varietals over the years -- always unique, tasty, and at times obscure. The spot is kitschy and welcoming, with shelves filled with hundreds of bottles.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://inovinosf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">InoVino\u003c/a> (Cole Valley): Owned and run by Tuscan sommelier Claudio Villani, InoVino unsurprisingly focuses on a fleshed-out list of hundreds of Italian wines and Tuscan-inspired food. The place has space for about 30 people at tables, counter seats, and spots out on the sidewalk. Not sure where to start? Try a flight of three pours, a half carafe, or go to the apertivo hour, where bites are paired with wine and cocktails.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.californiawinemerchant.com/\" target=\"_blank\">California Wine Merchant\u003c/a> (Marina): Maybe the name gives it away, but California Wine Merchant is the place to go if you're looking for small-batch California wines. Since it opened in 1974, the shop has offered hand-picked Golden State wines for sale in its retail shop. When it moved locations in the 2000s, that was the perfect time to add a casual wine bar to the set-up. The bar is primarily a bar, with just a small selection of food offered.

Well. It's less snooty than your stereotypical wine bar, and here it means everything's on tap. Jamber offers California wines all on tap; pick from four different sizes. There are also beers -- also all from California, also all on tap. Comfort foods, often made with local farmers market ingredients, flesh out the pub-like feel. Try the mac n' cheese pizza, the tater tots, or the meatloaf sandwich.

But when the fog rolls in, it starts to feel like time for a glass of wine. (And, really, when is it not time for a glass of wine?)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wine bars have been popping up everywhere in the last few years, to the point that the trend has almost become passé. That doesn't mean wine isn't still delicious, but it does mean it can make it hard to find the good spots. Are you looking for local wines? International wines? Sustainable wines? Wines by the bottle or by the glass?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can find it all in the Bay Area. We are, after all, a wine region. But if you're not sure where to start, here are some of our favorites in San Francisco and the East Bay. This is, of course, not a comprehensive list of Bay Area wine bars. If we forgot your favorite, add it in the comments below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111147\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111147\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280.jpg\" alt=\"Scopo Divino \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/scopo-interior1-1920x1280-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scopo Divino \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>San Francisco:\u003c/h3>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.scopodivino.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Scopo Divino\u003c/a> (Pacific Heights): Scopo Divino \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2016/07/19/scopo-divino-new-wine-bar-opens-in-pacific-heights/\" target=\"_blank\">opened in July\u003c/a>, but the classic wine bar is already drawing fans. There are 35 wines available by glass -- with a focus on the name-brand varietals from the regions best known for them -- and another 1,000 bottles in the collection. You can also become a monthly member and get discounts, if you plan on drinking there regularly.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.ameliewinebar.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Amelie\u003c/a> (Nob Hill): More of a wine \u003cem>lounge\u003c/em>, Amelie draws a crowd for its daily happy hours and inexpensive flights. Pick three samples for $10-15 (depending on the wines). The international list is extensive, with French tendencies, and the food is delicious. The small space gets crowded on weekend evenings though, so make reservations before you go.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.hotelbiron.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Hotel Biron\u003c/a> (Hayes Valley): Not actually a hotel, Hotel Biron is down a small alley off Gough Street. Though not as secret as it perhaps once was, the wine bar/art gallery still cultivates a speakeasy style and decor. There are about 50-60 wines available, many by the glass, as well as artisanal beers, coffee, and cheese plates.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.yieldandpause.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Yield\u003c/a> (The Dogpatch): With a focus on sustainable and organic wines, Yield opened 10 years ago in what was, at the time, an underserved neighborhood. Now, it's a popular spot for a low-key drink with a menu of local wines that change regularly, interesting vegan and vegetarian plates, and half-off carafes during happy hour. (It's sister wine bar, Pause, which opened in Hayes Valley in 2011, is also worth checking out, but expect a bit of a flashier scene.)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.thehiddenvine.com/\" target=\"_blank\">The Hidden Vine\u003c/a> (Downtown): The Hidden Vine started out in a genuinely hidden spot, but it was so popular the wine bar moved to a larger location in the financial district. Now, it's a hot spot for the professional crowds, who love the hundreds of bottles of wine, small plates and salads often made with ingredients from the nearby farmers market, and the hidden inside courtyard that houses a bocce ball court. Note: There's a $100 minimum for an hour of bocce, so get to drinking.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://20spot.com/\" target=\"_blank\">20 Spot\u003c/a> (Mission): It may be called a wine bar, but 20 Spot is probably just as well known for its food. The menu goes beyond your usual cheese and charcuterie. Expect oysters, deviled eggs with smoked salmon, and octopus with potatoes. Actually, don't expect exactly those things; the menu changes regularly. And, of course, there's also nearly 100 bottles and a selection of wine and beer available by glass in this ground floor of an old Victorian.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.birbawine.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Birba\u003c/a> (Hayes Valley): Yes, there are a lot of wine bars in Hayes Valley, but the small neighborhood spot Birba was a welcome addition when it opened in the spring of 2015. It's a tiny bare space, with concrete walls, but the feel is laid-back. You'll find a wide range of primarily European wines, and a few cocktails and beers. You can even order a gift box, which you might want to do for some of the particularly one-of-a-kind bottles. Try the tapas and sandwiches, and save room for the salted caramel pot de creme.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://terroirsf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Terroir Natural Wine Merchant\u003c/a> (SoMa): When it opened in late 2007, Terroir was something new and unheard of at the time: a wine bar that offered only natural wines, made with no pesticides, herbicides, or sulfur. Since then, it's become a bit of a pioneer. While the focus is on French wines, the spot also has added California varietals over the years -- always unique, tasty, and at times obscure. The spot is kitschy and welcoming, with shelves filled with hundreds of bottles.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://inovinosf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">InoVino\u003c/a> (Cole Valley): Owned and run by Tuscan sommelier Claudio Villani, InoVino unsurprisingly focuses on a fleshed-out list of hundreds of Italian wines and Tuscan-inspired food. The place has space for about 30 people at tables, counter seats, and spots out on the sidewalk. Not sure where to start? Try a flight of three pours, a half carafe, or go to the apertivo hour, where bites are paired with wine and cocktails.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.californiawinemerchant.com/\" target=\"_blank\">California Wine Merchant\u003c/a> (Marina): Maybe the name gives it away, but California Wine Merchant is the place to go if you're looking for small-batch California wines. Since it opened in 1974, the shop has offered hand-picked Golden State wines for sale in its retail shop. When it moved locations in the 2000s, that was the perfect time to add a casual wine bar to the set-up. The bar is primarily a bar, with just a small selection of food offered. Glasses range from $7-$25, and you can join the wine club to have California wines shipped to your house regularly.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.jambersf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Jamber Wine Pub\u003c/a> (SoMa): What is a wine pub?

But let's be real, this is San Francisco. Food -- from corn dogs to a gourmet five-course feast -- is nearly always going to edge its way to center stage. Outside Lands, now in its eighth year, is probably the best example of this: What began as a few Willy Wonka-esque areas devoted to chocolate, beer and bacon has grown over the past few years into a full-blown smorgasbord of culinary hedonism: Liquid nitrogen-dipped ice cream tacos? A thin-crust pizza the size of your torso? Fresh Maine lobster roll and a $25 pour of sauvignon blanc? Right this way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We here at Bay Area Bites sacrificed our stomachs on the first day of the fest to try as many options as possible -- with an emphasis on the newcomers. It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it. Here's the best of the best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Best way to fight the cold (or a hangover): \u003ca href=\"http://www.itaniramen.com\" target=\"_blank\">Itani Ramen\u003c/a>, $13\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nNew to the festival this year, this Oakland ramen shop is the brainchild of chef/namesake Kyle Itani, who happily explained how he had rigged his usual ramen recipe for a festival environment: by portioning out individual servings of fresh noodles, shocking them in ice water, and packaging them with toppings -- corn, green onion, nori -- before adding them to one of two broths, steaming behind him in 12-quart pots. The buttery shoyu (pork broth) option comes with chicken soboro (savory ground chicken), bamboo shoots, and bean sprouts; it was perfectly rich without being overwhelming salty. The veggie option was a thinner yet smokier miso broth, with a generous serving of spinach and the addition of chili oil. Only thing missing? No marinated soft-boiled eggs. Itani said they were working on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111268\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111268\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg.jpg\" alt=\"Itani Miso Veggie Ramen \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Itani Miso Veggie Ramen \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111267\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111267\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix.jpg\" alt=\"Shoyu Butter Chicken Ramen\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shoyu Butter Chicken Ramen \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Best deli sandwich: \u003ca href=\"http://www.jtomatoes.com/splitpea.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Split Pea Seduction\u003c/a> Rotisserie-Grilled Puerto Rican Pork, $14\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nYou can generally tell you're in for a good sandwich when you got to a stand by following your nose.

It helps that purveyor Kendra Kolling -- who notes with a smile that she can't reveal her secret and almost upsettingly satisfying three-cheese blend; even her employees don't know it -- is actually a farmer's wife: Husband Paul Kolling is the owner of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nanamae.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Nana Mae's Organics\u003c/a> and the grandson of Nana Mae herself. The apple farm the couple runs in Sebastopol makes them the fourth generation of a farming family; their daughters, who were dunking apples in high-quality caramel nearby, are the fifth. As for the sandwiches: This is stoner food done right. I was surprisingly satisfied by the most simple option, a sliced Gravenstein, perfectly melted cheese and a smear of clover flower honey on a thick slight of toasted organic sourdough, though Kolling also boasts award-winning chorizo and other carnivorous additions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111269\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111269\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples.jpg\" alt=\"The Farmer's Wife Gravenstein Apple and Wildflower Honey Grilled Cheese Sandwich\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Farmer's Wife Gravenstein Apple and Wildflower Honey Grilled Cheese Sandwich \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Best use of liquid nitrogen: \u003ca href=\"http://www.rockosicecreamtacos.com\" target=\"_blank\">Rocko's Ice Cream Tacos\u003c/a>, $7\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nBack for their second year, this food truck serves up the ice cream creations of your childhood dreams. Pick a house-made ice cream flavor -- I went with salted caramel, which was refreshingly not overly sweet -- and the almost too-eager employees at Rocko's will scoop it lovingly into a small waffle taco shell, then dunk it in the dip of your choosing (I went dark chocolate). Then you can opt for a superfluous-seeming sprinkling of nuts or pretzels, and the whole thing is topped off by a blast of liquid nitrogen. For the price, it's a whole lot of youthful fantasy wrapped in a literal chocolate shell. Wish we could pair it with warmer weather, but: This is Outside Lands, friends.

If you're going to be annoyed every time you see a gourmet, exorbitant charcuterie plate and wine pairing at Outside Lands, you should probably just stay home. That said, of the indulgences that the $15-and-up category has to offer, the lobster roll from SF's own Woodhouse was the closest thing to self-justifying. Fresh-tasting Maine lobster meat mingled with a light lemon aioli, chives, and a surprising crunch of celery, all stuffed into a thick slab of Texas toast cooked on the griddle with clarified butter. One complaint: For how hyped this year's new \"Outside Clams\" area was in press materials, I was expecting a sign, at least.

But let's be real, this is San Francisco. Food -- from corn dogs to a gourmet five-course feast -- is nearly always going to edge its way to center stage. Outside Lands, now in its eighth year, is probably the best example of this: What began as a few Willy Wonka-esque areas devoted to chocolate, beer and bacon has grown over the past few years into a full-blown smorgasbord of culinary hedonism: Liquid nitrogen-dipped ice cream tacos? A thin-crust pizza the size of your torso? Fresh Maine lobster roll and a $25 pour of sauvignon blanc? Right this way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We here at Bay Area Bites sacrificed our stomachs on the first day of the fest to try as many options as possible -- with an emphasis on the newcomers. It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it.

The buttery shoyu (pork broth) option comes with chicken soboro (savory ground chicken), bamboo shoots, and bean sprouts; it was perfectly rich without being overwhelming salty. The veggie option was a thinner yet smokier miso broth, with a generous serving of spinach and the addition of chili oil. Only thing missing? No marinated soft-boiled eggs. Itani said they were working on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111268\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111268\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg.jpg\" alt=\"Itani Miso Veggie Ramen \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-veg-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Itani Miso Veggie Ramen \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111267\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111267\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix.jpg\" alt=\"Shoyu Butter Chicken Ramen\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ramen-chix-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shoyu Butter Chicken Ramen \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Best deli sandwich: \u003ca href=\"http://www.jtomatoes.com/splitpea.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Split Pea Seduction\u003c/a> Rotisserie-Grilled Puerto Rican Pork, $14\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nYou can generally tell you're in for a good sandwich when you got to a stand by following your nose.

It helps that purveyor Kendra Kolling -- who notes with a smile that she can't reveal her secret and almost upsettingly satisfying three-cheese blend; even her employees don't know it -- is actually a farmer's wife: Husband Paul Kolling is the owner of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nanamae.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Nana Mae's Organics\u003c/a> and the grandson of Nana Mae herself. The apple farm the couple runs in Sebastopol makes them the fourth generation of a farming family; their daughters, who were dunking apples in high-quality caramel nearby, are the fifth. As for the sandwiches: This is stoner food done right. I was surprisingly satisfied by the most simple option, a sliced Gravenstein, perfectly melted cheese and a smear of clover flower honey on a thick slight of toasted organic sourdough, though Kolling also boasts award-winning chorizo and other carnivorous additions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111269\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111269\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples.jpg\" alt=\"The Farmer's Wife Gravenstein Apple and Wildflower Honey Grilled Cheese Sandwich\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/grilled-cheese-apples-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Farmer's Wife Gravenstein Apple and Wildflower Honey Grilled Cheese Sandwich \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Best use of liquid nitrogen: \u003ca href=\"http://www.rockosicecreamtacos.com\" target=\"_blank\">Rocko's Ice Cream Tacos\u003c/a>, $7\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nBack for their second year, this food truck serves up the ice cream creations of your childhood dreams. Pick a house-made ice cream flavor -- I went with salted caramel, which was refreshingly not overly sweet -- and the almost too-eager employees at Rocko's will scoop it lovingly into a small waffle taco shell, then dunk it in the dip of your choosing (I went dark chocolate).

If you're going to be annoyed every time you see a gourmet, exorbitant charcuterie plate and wine pairing at Outside Lands, you should probably just stay home. That said, of the indulgences that the $15-and-up category has to offer, the lobster roll from SF's own Woodhouse was the closest thing to self-justifying. Fresh-tasting Maine lobster meat mingled with a light lemon aioli, chives, and a surprising crunch of celery, all stuffed into a thick slab of Texas toast cooked on the griddle with clarified butter. One complaint: For how hyped this year's new \"Outside Clams\" area was in press materials, I was expecting a sign, at least. Just look for Wine Lands, and then follow the sound of people happily slurping barbecued oysters nearby.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111270\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111270\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/lobster-roll.jpg\" alt=\"Woodhouse Fish Co.

Dishes can be light and simple such as Pork Larb served in crisp lettuce cups or they can be a carefully balanced marriage of flavors as with a great Pad Thai. That balance of contrasting flavors is what makes Thai food such a delicious cuisine: a fiery curry tamed by the sweetness of creamy coconut milk or brightened up with the zing of a lime and Thai basil. With the Bay Area being home to so many diverse cultures and flavors, of course great Thai restaurants abound. Here are five popular Thai restaurants south of San Francisco.

The menu features familiar dishes such as Tom Ka Gai soup, Pad Thai and Pad See Ewe. However, do be sure to try house specials such as the Thai-tanic eggplant with tender chunks of eggplant, sweet pieces of pineapple, and cashews in a coconut chili sauce. Also worth enjoying is the Tamarind Duck with rich pieces of roasted duck that have been deep-fried for perfectly crisp skin and then tossed with pineapple and vegetables in a sweet and tangy tamarind sauce.

Those who avoid spicy foods will enjoy Shana Thai’s Pad Thai with tender chunks of chicken and flat noodles in a delightful sweet and tangy sauce, garnished with crunchy peanuts for a pop of flavor and texture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111203\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai.jpg\" alt=\"The Pad Thai at Shana Thai in Mountain View.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111203\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Pad Thai at Shana Thai in Mountain View. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111205\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Shana Thai in Mountain View.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111205\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside Shana Thai in Mountain View. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.shanathai.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cb>Shana Thai Restaurant\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n311 Moffett Blvd. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/9hR8FG\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nMountain View, CA 94043\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 940-9990\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sun 11am-3pm and 5-10pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/shanathai/\" target=\"_blank\">Shana Thai Restaurant \u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Dusita Thai Cuisine\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111201\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy.jpg\" alt=\"Dusita’s Kao Soy featuring eggs noodles and chicken in a red and yellow curry sauce.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111201\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dusita’s Kao Soy featuring eggs noodles and chicken in a red and yellow curry sauce. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Like many popular restaurants in this neighborhood, Dusita Thai Cuisine is nestled among other restaurants serving various ethnic cuisines in small shopping mall along El Camino Real. The restaurant’s authentic Thai dishes are big on flavor but also spice, so be warned if you are new to Thai cuisine or sensitive to heat. Those who do enjoy spicy food should try Dusita’s Angry Pork featuring stir-fried pork with bell peppers and basil in a red curry. Green peppercorns, ginger and lime provide a tangy bite to the fiery dish while coconut milk adds to touch of sweetness. On the less spicy side of things, the popular Kao Soy Chicken features tender bites of chicken and fresh egg noodles simmered in a silky smooth red & yellow curry sauce, sweetened with coconut milk. A cold, crisp Chang beer or a sweet and smoky Thai iced tea are a delicious way to tame the heat if things get too intense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111200\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork.jpg\" alt=\"A fiery dish of Dusita’s Angry Pork.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111200\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A fiery dish of Dusita’s Angry Pork. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111202\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Dusita Thai Cuisine in Santa Clara.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111202\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside Dusita Thai Cuisine in Santa Clara. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/dusita-thai-cuisine-santa-clara\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cb>Dusita Thai Cuisine\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2325 El Camino Real [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/CEfrK3\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSanta Clara, CA 95050\u003cbr>\nPh: (408) 247-5199\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri 10am-3pm and 5-10pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dusita-Thai-Cuisine/111382215561697?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Dusita Thai Cuisine\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Dishes can be light and simple such as Pork Larb served in crisp lettuce cups or they can be a carefully balanced marriage of flavors as with a great Pad Thai. That balance of contrasting flavors is what makes Thai food such a delicious cuisine: a fiery curry tamed by the sweetness of creamy coconut milk or brightened up with the zing of a lime and Thai basil. With the Bay Area being home to so many diverse cultures and flavors, of course great Thai restaurants abound. Here are five popular Thai restaurants south of San Francisco.

However, do be sure to try house specials such as the Thai-tanic eggplant with tender chunks of eggplant, sweet pieces of pineapple, and cashews in a coconut chili sauce. Also worth enjoying is the Tamarind Duck with rich pieces of roasted duck that have been deep-fried for perfectly crisp skin and then tossed with pineapple and vegetables in a sweet and tangy tamarind sauce.

Those who avoid spicy foods will enjoy Shana Thai’s Pad Thai with tender chunks of chicken and flat noodles in a delightful sweet and tangy sauce, garnished with crunchy peanuts for a pop of flavor and texture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111203\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai.jpg\" alt=\"The Pad Thai at Shana Thai in Mountain View.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111203\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaPadThai-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Pad Thai at Shana Thai in Mountain View. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111205\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Shana Thai in Mountain View.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111205\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/ShanaThai-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside Shana Thai in Mountain View. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.shanathai.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cb>Shana Thai Restaurant\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n311 Moffett Blvd. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/9hR8FG\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nMountain View, CA 94043\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 940-9990\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sun 11am-3pm and 5-10pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/shanathai/\" target=\"_blank\">Shana Thai Restaurant \u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Dusita Thai Cuisine\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111201\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy.jpg\" alt=\"Dusita’s Kao Soy featuring eggs noodles and chicken in a red and yellow curry sauce.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111201\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaKaoSoy-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dusita’s Kao Soy featuring eggs noodles and chicken in a red and yellow curry sauce. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Like many popular restaurants in this neighborhood, Dusita Thai Cuisine is nestled among other restaurants serving various ethnic cuisines in small shopping mall along El Camino Real. The restaurant’s authentic Thai dishes are big on flavor but also spice, so be warned if you are new to Thai cuisine or sensitive to heat. Those who do enjoy spicy food should try Dusita’s Angry Pork featuring stir-fried pork with bell peppers and basil in a red curry. Green peppercorns, ginger and lime provide a tangy bite to the fiery dish while coconut milk adds to touch of sweetness. On the less spicy side of things, the popular Kao Soy Chicken features tender bites of chicken and fresh egg noodles simmered in a silky smooth red & yellow curry sauce, sweetened with coconut milk. A cold, crisp Chang beer or a sweet and smoky Thai iced tea are a delicious way to tame the heat if things get too intense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111200\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork.jpg\" alt=\"A fiery dish of Dusita’s Angry Pork.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111200\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaAngryPork-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A fiery dish of Dusita’s Angry Pork. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111202\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Dusita Thai Cuisine in Santa Clara.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-111202\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/08/DusitaThai-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside Dusita Thai Cuisine in Santa Clara. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/dusita-thai-cuisine-santa-clara\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cb>Dusita Thai Cuisine\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2325 El Camino Real [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/CEfrK3\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSanta Clara, CA 95050\u003cbr>\nPh: (408) 247-5199\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri 10am-3pm and 5-10pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dusita-Thai-Cuisine/111382215561697?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Dusita Thai Cuisine\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Here in the Bay Area, we appreciate our dosas. You can get them from a cart, from hole in the wall places crowded with families, and from an upscale restaurant beloved by locals \u003ca href=\"http://sf.eater.com/2010/11/9/6710947/dosa-on-fillmore-celebrity-rush\" target=\"_blank\">as well as celebrities \u003c/a>passing through town. It’s simple why the South Indian dish has become so popular. It’s alternately familiar-- “Just try it, it’s like a crepe/injera/pancake,” you might hear a desperate parent coax--while still foreign enough to be novel. After cooking, the batter, a fermented mix of rice and urud dal, becomes both crispy and chewy. It’s served plain and stuffed with a variety of fillings like vegetables and potatoes, making it satisfyingly hearty but lacking the carb overload of similar dishes. It typically comes with sauces and a side of sambar (a vegetable lentil soup). We’ve listed our five favorites in San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley and Albany, but if we missed your favorite, let us know in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Dosa\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111081\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111081\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693.jpg\" alt=\"The truffle dosa from Dosa.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The truffle dosa from Dosa. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>As you’d expect, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.tablehopper.com/starlet/bill-teds-excellent-indian-food-adventure/\" target=\"_blank\">Keanu-approved\u003c/a> \u003cstrong>Dosa\u003c/strong>--with locations on Fillmore and in the Mission--has an excellent array of dosas to choose from. You could have the lamb one. Or the spicy basil one. Truly, any of the dosas from chef Anjan Mitra would make an excellent meal. But for the peak Dosa experience, get the truffle dosa. It sounds like it might be terrible--when you can get truffle fries at McDonald’s or truffle almonds at Starbucks, is truffle still something to get excited about?--but ends up being an aggressively bold take on the traditional masala potato dosa. It’s huge, with shatteringly crispy edges contrasting with the chewy middle, and filled with mustard seed-flecked potatoes. The application of Italian truffle oil brings out the fermented funkiness of the dosa batter, and while you can definitely taste the truffle, it’s not overpowering. It’s rich, but not in the “doughnut hamburger” kind of way--instead it’s savory, creative and elegant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111080\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111080\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683.jpg\" alt=\"The truffle dosa from Dosa.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The truffle dosa from Dosa. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://dosasf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Dosa\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n995 Valencia St [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/agtiNexXzjK2\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94110\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 642-3672\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri, 5:30pm-11:30pm; Sat, 11am-3pm and 5:30pm-11pm; Sun, 11am-3pm and 5:30pm-10pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/dosasf/\" target=\"_blank\">DOSA\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/dosasf\" target=\"_blank\">@DOSASF\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/dosasf/\" target=\"_blank\">@dosasf\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$-$$$ (Entrees $11-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Udupi Palace\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111082\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111082\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696.jpg\" alt=\"A spinach paneer dosa at Udupi Palace.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A spinach paneer dosa at Udupi Palace. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Udupi Palace\u003c/strong>, from Uday Shetty and chef Prince Baby, is a popular restaurant. It’s popular enough for two locations, in Berkeley and in San Francisco's Mission. It’s so popular that a random Thursday dinner at the San Francisco location required a shivering 20-minute wait outside the crowded restaurant. Once you’re finally in, you skirt groups of families and dates to pick something from the large menu, the bulk of which is made up of dosas and their thicker cousin Uthapam in flavors like spicy cauliflower and hot chili. Dosas are served on huge cafeteria style trays with built in sauce divots to hold the chutneys, which provide an ideal accompaniment to the comically large dosa, each half the size of a super burrito. A spinach and paneer dosa was a refreshing variation on that classic combination, with salty cheese mixing into a flavorful mess of spinach, mustard seeds and onions. It’s comforting, familiar and and rich enough to keep you warm as you trundle off into the 50-degree summer night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111079\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111079\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa.jpg\" alt=\"A spinach paneer dosa at Udupi Palace.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A spinach paneer dosa at Udupi Palace. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.udupipalaceca.com/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Udupi Palace\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1007 Valencia St [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/K6robg8q7Ez\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94110\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 970-8000\u003cbr>\nHours: Sun-Thu, 11:30am-10pm; Fri-Sat, 11:30am-10:30pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Udupi-Palace-333277190040780/\" target=\"_blank\">Udupi Palace\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $ (Entrees $10 and under)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Juhu Beach Club\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111083\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111083\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769.jpg\" alt='A fried chicken \"dosawaffle.\"' width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A fried chicken \"dosawaffle.\" \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The fusion-y dishes at the colorful, bustling \u003cstrong>Juhu Beach Club\u003c/strong> are the result of chef Preeti Mistry’s creative brain, a mix of traditional Indian benchmarks spiked with French, Bay Area and traditional-Americana touches. One of the dishes that best encapsulates Mistry’s approach is the fried chicken dosawaffle. There are a few dosawaffles on the menu, an inspired mashup of a traditional dosa and Belgian waffle (as they note, it’s a “gluten free diner’s delight”): one served with the traditional potatoes and sambar, and one slathered with Nutella and cardamom whipped cream. But the chicken and waffle version is the most ambitious. The light, crispy sourdough-ish waffle is topped with two gigantic pieces of fried chicken, spicy and tangy from a batter of yogurt, chickpea flour and spices like turmeric and curry powder. Each element, from the fiery maple syrup to the smear of black pepper butter, is well-thought-out, and increases the dish’s salty, sweet and spicy contrast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.juhubeachclub.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Juhu Beach Club\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n5179 Telegraph Ave [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/cg8te6WPR9y\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94609\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 652-7350\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon, closed; Tue-Thu, 5:30-9:30pm; Fri, 11:30am-2pm and 5:30-9:30pm; Sat, 11am-2pm and 5:30-9:30pm; Sun, 11am-2pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/JuhuBeachClub/?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Juhu Beach Club\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/juhubeachclub\" target=\"_blank\">@juhubeachclub\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/juhubeachclub/\" target=\"_blank\">@juhubeachclub\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$ (Entrees $11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Vik's Chaat & Market\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111084\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111084\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7820.jpg\" alt=\"A masala dosa at Vik's Chaat.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7820.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7820-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7820-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7820-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7820-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7820-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7820-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A masala dosa at Vik's Chaat. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/h3>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Vik's Chaat\u003c/strong>, the cheery West Berkeley cafeteria-style Indian restaurant and grocery store from the Chopra family, is extremely beloved.

Their menu is a large, welcoming collection of chaat classics, including dosas filled with potatoes, mung beans or vegetables. A masala dosa was perfectly crispy, without the midpoint gumminess that can afflict a lesser dosa, and filled with a bright yellow mash of potatoes and colorful vegetables like carrots and peas. It’s pleasantly, mildly spicy, accompanied by a collection of flavorful sauces and a side of hearty sambar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111085\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111085\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7825.jpg\" alt=\"A masala dosa at Vik's Chaat.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7825.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7825-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7825-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7825-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7825-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7825-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7825-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A masala dosa at Vik's Chaat. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://vikschaat.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Vik's Chaat & Market\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2390 Fourth St [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/QZhbkHpF1G82\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94710\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 644-4432\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Thu, 11am-6pm; Fri-Sun, 11am-8pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/ViksChaat/\" target=\"_blank\">Vik's Chaat\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $ (Entrees $10 and under)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Hamro Aangan\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111086\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111086\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7848.jpg\" alt=\"The paneer dosa at Hamro Aangan.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7848.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7848-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7848-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7848-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7848-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7848-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7848-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The paneer dosa at Hamro Aangan. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Albany’s \u003cstrong>Hamro Aangan Indo-Nepalese\u003c/strong> is a pretty space, with exposed brick and a huge oil painting of Nepal. The restaurant, from chef and owner Bishnu Bhandari (a former manager at Vik’s Chaat) is a mix of Indian and Nepalese dishes, and they offer two types of dosas as well as Uttappam. A crispy paneer dosa was thankfully restrained, mixing a moderate amount of cheese in with large chunks of well-seasoned vegetables. You’re asked how spicy you want your dosa, but the sauces--a creamy coconut chutney and a scorching chili paste--allow you to ultimately control the spice level, with just a dab of the chili sauce enlivening the dish. A wonderfully earthy sambar was a worthy accompaniment.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111087\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111087\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7851.jpg\" alt=\"The paneer dosa at Hamro Aangan.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7851.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7851-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7851-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7851-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7851-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7851-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7851-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The paneer dosa at Hamro Aangan. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.hamroaangan.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Hamro Aangan\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n856 San Pablo Ave [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/2PRrvU4ZWd82\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nAlbany, CA 94706\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 524-2220\u003cbr>\nHours: Thu-Tue, 11:30am-9pm; Wed, closed\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Hamro-Aangan-Indo-Nepalese-Cuisine/105679852813875\" target=\"_blank\">Hamro Aangan - Indo-Nepalese Cuisine\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/incuisine\" target=\"_blank\">@INcuisine\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $ (Entrees $10 and under)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n",

You can get them from a cart, from hole in the wall places crowded with families, and from an upscale restaurant beloved by locals \u003ca href=\"http://sf.eater.com/2010/11/9/6710947/dosa-on-fillmore-celebrity-rush\" target=\"_blank\">as well as celebrities \u003c/a>passing through town. It’s simple why the South Indian dish has become so popular. It’s alternately familiar-- “Just try it, it’s like a crepe/injera/pancake,” you might hear a desperate parent coax--while still foreign enough to be novel. After cooking, the batter, a fermented mix of rice and urud dal, becomes both crispy and chewy. It’s served plain and stuffed with a variety of fillings like vegetables and potatoes, making it satisfyingly hearty but lacking the carb overload of similar dishes. It typically comes with sauces and a side of sambar (a vegetable lentil soup). We’ve listed our five favorites in San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley and Albany, but if we missed your favorite, let us know in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Dosa\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111081\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111081\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693.jpg\" alt=\"The truffle dosa from Dosa.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7693-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The truffle dosa from Dosa. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>As you’d expect, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.tablehopper.com/starlet/bill-teds-excellent-indian-food-adventure/\" target=\"_blank\">Keanu-approved\u003c/a> \u003cstrong>Dosa\u003c/strong>--with locations on Fillmore and in the Mission--has an excellent array of dosas to choose from. You could have the lamb one. Or the spicy basil one. Truly, any of the dosas from chef Anjan Mitra would make an excellent meal. But for the peak Dosa experience, get the truffle dosa. It sounds like it might be terrible--when you can get truffle fries at McDonald’s or truffle almonds at Starbucks, is truffle still something to get excited about?--but ends up being an aggressively bold take on the traditional masala potato dosa. It’s huge, with shatteringly crispy edges contrasting with the chewy middle, and filled with mustard seed-flecked potatoes. The application of Italian truffle oil brings out the fermented funkiness of the dosa batter, and while you can definitely taste the truffle, it’s not overpowering. It’s rich, but not in the “doughnut hamburger” kind of way--instead it’s savory, creative and elegant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111080\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111080\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683.jpg\" alt=\"The truffle dosa from Dosa.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7683-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The truffle dosa from Dosa. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://dosasf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Dosa\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n995 Valencia St [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/agtiNexXzjK2\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94110\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 642-3672\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri, 5:30pm-11:30pm; Sat, 11am-3pm and 5:30pm-11pm; Sun, 11am-3pm and 5:30pm-10pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/dosasf/\" target=\"_blank\">DOSA\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/dosasf\" target=\"_blank\">@DOSASF\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/dosasf/\" target=\"_blank\">@dosasf\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$-$$$ (Entrees $11-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Udupi Palace\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111082\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111082\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696.jpg\" alt=\"A spinach paneer dosa at Udupi Palace.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7696-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A spinach paneer dosa at Udupi Palace. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Udupi Palace\u003c/strong>, from Uday Shetty and chef Prince Baby, is a popular restaurant. It’s popular enough for two locations, in Berkeley and in San Francisco's Mission. It’s so popular that a random Thursday dinner at the San Francisco location required a shivering 20-minute wait outside the crowded restaurant. Once you’re finally in, you skirt groups of families and dates to pick something from the large menu, the bulk of which is made up of dosas and their thicker cousin Uthapam in flavors like spicy cauliflower and hot chili. Dosas are served on huge cafeteria style trays with built in sauce divots to hold the chutneys, which provide an ideal accompaniment to the comically large dosa, each half the size of a super burrito. A spinach and paneer dosa was a refreshing variation on that classic combination, with salty cheese mixing into a flavorful mess of spinach, mustard seeds and onions. It’s comforting, familiar and and rich enough to keep you warm as you trundle off into the 50-degree summer night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111079\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111079\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa.jpg\" alt=\"A spinach paneer dosa at Udupi Palace.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/dosa-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A spinach paneer dosa at Udupi Palace. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.udupipalaceca.com/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Udupi Palace\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1007 Valencia St [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/K6robg8q7Ez\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94110\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 970-8000\u003cbr>\nHours: Sun-Thu, 11:30am-10pm; Fri-Sat, 11:30am-10:30pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Udupi-Palace-333277190040780/\" target=\"_blank\">Udupi Palace\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $ (Entrees $10 and under)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Juhu Beach Club\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111083\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111083\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769.jpg\" alt='A fried chicken \"dosawaffle.\"' width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/IMG_7769-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A fried chicken \"dosawaffle.\" \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The fusion-y dishes at the colorful, bustling \u003cstrong>Juhu Beach Club\u003c/strong> are the result of chef Preeti Mistry’s creative brain, a mix of traditional Indian benchmarks spiked with French, Bay Area and traditional-Americana touches. One of the dishes that best encapsulates Mistry’s approach is the fried chicken dosawaffle. There are a few dosawaffles on the menu, an inspired mashup of a traditional dosa and Belgian waffle (as they note, it’s a “gluten free diner’s delight”): one served with the traditional potatoes and sambar, and one slathered with Nutella and cardamom whipped cream. But the chicken and waffle version is the most ambitious. The light, crispy sourdough-ish waffle is topped with two gigantic pieces of fried chicken, spicy and tangy from a batter of yogurt, chickpea flour and spices like turmeric and curry powder. Each element, from the fiery maple syrup to the smear of black pepper butter, is well-thought-out, and increases the dish’s salty, sweet and spicy contrast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Their menu is a large, welcoming collection of chaat classics, including dosas filled with potatoes, mung beans or vegetables. A masala dosa was perfectly crispy, without the midpoint gumminess that can afflict a lesser dosa, and filled with a bright yellow mash of potatoes and colorful vegetables like carrots and peas.

The restaurant, from chef and owner Bishnu Bhandari (a former manager at Vik’s Chaat) is a mix of Indian and Nepalese dishes, and they offer two types of dosas as well as Uttappam. A crispy paneer dosa was thankfully restrained, mixing a moderate amount of cheese in with large chunks of well-seasoned vegetables. You’re asked how spicy you want your dosa, but the sauces--a creamy coconut chutney and a scorching chili paste--allow you to ultimately control the spice level, with just a dab of the chili sauce enlivening the dish.

Its moist silky softness with just enough tooth resistance is a sublime accompaniment to sauces and -- of course -- lots of melting cheese. Sure, the debate rages on about the merits of \u003ca href=\"http://www.thedailymeal.com/difference-between-fresh-and-dry-pasta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dried versus fresh pasta\u003c/a> noodles, but those living south of the city can happily munch on pleasing, locally-crafted products from a handful of pasta makers while deciding for themselves. And there's no contest in the case of filled pastas, with fresh the only way to go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the Peninsula and in the South Bay, \"fresh\" frequently means fresh frozen when it comes to ravioli as producers seek to get an optimum product into consumers' hands. As Santa Cruz Pasta Factory owner Steve Simonovich explains it, \"The shelf life of ravioli is very short. Ravioli immediately start degrading because of the interaction between the wet filling and the dough. I believe that when you immediately freeze a ravioli after making it, the product is better compared to a two-day-old fresh ravioli or older. I also believe that a frozen ravioli boils better.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Often proving his point is how the high-volume brands of so-called fresh ravioli found in supermarkets can lack the pleasing texture and otherwise elude satisfaction compared to local products. In the case of fresh versus fresh-frozen versions from local producers, it's difficult to tell the difference after they're cooked. However, purists can definitely find fresh, non-frozen, house-made ravioli in the region if they desire. Locally-made noodles are invariably fresh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tasty pasta found in the area is often quite good without a formal sauce. Toss these silky pillows or toothy noodles with a favored combination -- select among cooked vegetables, mushrooms and various kinds of protein -- add chopped herbs, a little reduced stock or demi-glace and a little splash of pasta cooking water, sprinkle on cheese and dive in. Here's a handful of fresh pasta sources on the Peninsula and in the South Bay region, listed roughly from north to south. If your favorite isn't included, be sure to add it and recommendations on what's best to buy there in the comments section.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Home Maid Ravioli/Organic Maid Pasta\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110191\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-110191\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli.jpg\" alt='The \"North Beach style\" ravioli from Home Maid in South San Francisco scream old-school Italian, with a fine-grained beef filling touched with Italian seasonings.' width=\"1920\" height=\"1384\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-400x288.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-800x577.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-768x554.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-1440x1038.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-1180x851.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-960x692.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The \"North Beach style\" ravioli from Home Maid in South San Francisco scream old-school Italian, with a fine-grained beef filling touched with Italian seasonings. \u003ccite>(Susan Hathaway)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Generations of an Italian family have run this pasta production company for many decades, with its noodles and ravioli showing up in a variety of delis and restaurants like Original Joe's as well as at farmers markets all around the Bay Area and markets such as Lunardi's, Piazza's and Mollie Stone's.

Frozen Saporito gnocchi and tortellone are also available in the Sigona's case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Saporito Pasta\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nBest selection available at \u003ca href=\"https://www.sigonas.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sigona's Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2345 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA 94063 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/80xIta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nTel: (650) 368-6993\u003cbr>\nHours: Summer: Mon-Fri: 8am-8:30pm; Sat-Sun: 8am-7:30pm | Winter: Mon-Fri: 8am-7:30pm; Sat-Sun: 8am-6:30pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"http://Sigona's%20Farmers%20Market\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sigona's Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: Noodles, $6 per package; ravioli, $9-15 per package\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Bertucelli's La Villa\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110196\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-110196\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/LaVilla-lobster-rav.jpg\" alt=\"Bertucelli's La Villa, a classic Italian deli in Willow Glen, makes amazing lobster ravioli that burst with the unmistakable flavor of this kingly crustacean.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1245\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/LaVilla-lobster-rav.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/LaVilla-lobster-rav-400x259.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/LaVilla-lobster-rav-800x519.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/LaVilla-lobster-rav-768x498.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/LaVilla-lobster-rav-1440x934.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/LaVilla-lobster-rav-1180x765.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/LaVilla-lobster-rav-960x623.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bertucelli's La Villa, a classic Italian deli in Willow Glen, makes amazing lobster ravioli that burst with the unmistakable flavor of this kingly crustacean. \u003ccite>(Susan Hathaway)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Like a transplanted old-school deli from Little Italy, this cramped, busy spot on the main drag in Willow Glen has been keeping pasta lovers happy for generations. The smells upon entering tell the tale, redolent of homemade Italian food. While a few products from the Pasta Shop in Rockridge are sold here, what brings pasta people in are the house-made ravioli -- small, fat little pillows of goodness with no fancy-schmancy flavors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Offered in petite squares filled with beef, cheese, chicken, feta or lobster, the ravioli are just what one expects in a classic ravioli, with fine texture and abundant filling. A small case by the front door usually contains boxes of frozen ravioli -- which are still seriously tasty after cooking. However, La Villa also takes online ravioli orders via the \u003ca href=\"http://www.wglavilla.com/RavioliOrder.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">website\u003c/a> for those who want fresh ones or a larger quantity. A few sauces are also available online or in the store.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since ravioli are just a small part of La Villa's business, peruse the shelves full of Italian ingredients, order one of their popular sandwiches or snag some of the renowned, ready-to-go items such as killer arancini, canneloni, or lasagna. The unbelievable crème brūlée cheesecake is worth a trip alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111050\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111050\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/fettucine-pesto.jpg\" alt=\"Fresh pasta noodles are a perfect accompaniment to a pesto sauce made from whatever main ingredient one desires-- basil, cilantro, sun-dried tomato, beet, parsley or this version, from carrot tops.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1180\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/fettucine-pesto.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/fettucine-pesto-400x246.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/fettucine-pesto-800x492.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/fettucine-pesto-768x472.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/fettucine-pesto-1440x885.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/fettucine-pesto-1180x725.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/fettucine-pesto-960x590.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fresh pasta noodles are a perfect accompaniment to a pesto sauce made from whatever main ingredient one desires-- basil, cilantro, sun-dried tomato, beet, parsley or this version, from carrot tops. \u003ccite>(Susan Hathaway)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.wglavilla.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cstrong>Bertucelli's La Villa\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1319 Lincoln Ave, San Jose, CA 95125 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/DVjQ10\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nTel: (408) 295-7851\u003cbr>\nHours: Tues-Wed, 9:30am-6:30pm; Thu-Fri, 9:30am-7pm; Sat, 9:30am-6pm.

Its moist silky softness with just enough tooth resistance is a sublime accompaniment to sauces and -- of course -- lots of melting cheese. Sure, the debate rages on about the merits of \u003ca href=\"http://www.thedailymeal.com/difference-between-fresh-and-dry-pasta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dried versus fresh pasta\u003c/a> noodles, but those living south of the city can happily munch on pleasing, locally-crafted products from a handful of pasta makers while deciding for themselves. And there's no contest in the case of filled pastas, with fresh the only way to go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the Peninsula and in the South Bay, \"fresh\" frequently means fresh frozen when it comes to ravioli as producers seek to get an optimum product into consumers' hands. As Santa Cruz Pasta Factory owner Steve Simonovich explains it, \"The shelf life of ravioli is very short. Ravioli immediately start degrading because of the interaction between the wet filling and the dough. I believe that when you immediately freeze a ravioli after making it, the product is better compared to a two-day-old fresh ravioli or older. I also believe that a frozen ravioli boils better.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Often proving his point is how the high-volume brands of so-called fresh ravioli found in supermarkets can lack the pleasing texture and otherwise elude satisfaction compared to local products. In the case of fresh versus fresh-frozen versions from local producers, it's difficult to tell the difference after they're cooked. However, purists can definitely find fresh, non-frozen, house-made ravioli in the region if they desire. Locally-made noodles are invariably fresh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tasty pasta found in the area is often quite good without a formal sauce. Toss these silky pillows or toothy noodles with a favored combination -- select among cooked vegetables, mushrooms and various kinds of protein -- add chopped herbs, a little reduced stock or demi-glace and a little splash of pasta cooking water, sprinkle on cheese and dive in. Here's a handful of fresh pasta sources on the Peninsula and in the South Bay region, listed roughly from north to south. If your favorite isn't included, be sure to add it and recommendations on what's best to buy there in the comments section.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Home Maid Ravioli/Organic Maid Pasta\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110191\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-110191\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli.jpg\" alt='The \"North Beach style\" ravioli from Home Maid in South San Francisco scream old-school Italian, with a fine-grained beef filling touched with Italian seasonings.' width=\"1920\" height=\"1384\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-400x288.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-800x577.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-768x554.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-1440x1038.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-1180x851.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/ravioli-960x692.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The \"North Beach style\" ravioli from Home Maid in South San Francisco scream old-school Italian, with a fine-grained beef filling touched with Italian seasonings. \u003ccite>(Susan Hathaway)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Generations of an Italian family have run this pasta production company for many decades, with its noodles and ravioli showing up in a variety of delis and restaurants like Original Joe's as well as at farmers markets all around the Bay Area and markets such as Lunardi's, Piazza's and Mollie Stone's.

There are many other noodle choices like pappardelle, red pepper linguine, radiatori, rotini, rigatoni, whole wheat spaghetti and more. Meanwhile, 10 ravioli offerings are always available, ranging from the classics like meats and cheese to mushroom medley, roasted garlic-chèvre, sweet pea-zucchini, chicken-prosciutto and others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110202\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-110202\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-sq-ink-dish.jpg\" alt=\"With its faint seashore flavors, the squid ink linguine from Pasta Pasta is great paired with seafood, such as this mélange of corn, tomato, smoked salmon and herbs.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-sq-ink-dish.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-sq-ink-dish-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-sq-ink-dish-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-sq-ink-dish-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-sq-ink-dish-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-sq-ink-dish-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-sq-ink-dish-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">With its faint seashore flavors, the squid ink linguine from Pasta Pasta is great paired with seafood, such as this mélange of corn, tomato, smoked salmon and herbs. \u003ccite>(Susan Hathaway)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110193\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-110193\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-case.jpg\" alt=\"A big selection of fresh noodles and ravioli is just one reason to head to Pasta Pasta in San Mateo.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1240\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-case.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-case-400x258.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-case-800x517.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-case-768x496.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-case-1440x930.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-case-1180x762.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/06/PP-case-960x620.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A big selection of fresh noodles and ravioli is just one reason to head to Pasta Pasta in San Mateo. \u003ccite>(Susan Hathaway)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One of the chefs is usually on hand behind the counter to answer any questions and make recommendations.

And when it comes to sauces suitable for such well-crafted pasta, this shop also excels, offering 10 choices. Mini riots among customers would start if the kitchen were ever to run out of the remarkable \"matriccina\" red sauce with prosciutto and garlic or the rich but not gloppy-thick creamy mushroom sauce.

A small case by the front door usually contains boxes of frozen ravioli -- which are still seriously tasty after cooking. However, La Villa also takes online ravioli orders via the \u003ca href=\"http://www.wglavilla.com/RavioliOrder.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">website\u003c/a> for those who want fresh ones or a larger quantity.

The sweet and tart lychee tea is perfect for sipping on a warm summer night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110662\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1440px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeLychee.jpg\" alt=\"Lychee milk tea from Verde Tea Cafe in Mountain View.\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1920\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110662\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeLychee.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeLychee-400x533.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeLychee-800x1067.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeLychee-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeLychee-1180x1573.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeLychee-960x1280.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lychee milk tea from Verde Tea Cafe in Mountain View. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110663\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeTea.jpg\" alt=\"Counter inside Verde Tea Cafe in Mountain View.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110663\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeTea.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeTea-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeTea-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeTea-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeTea-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeTea-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/VerdeTea-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Counter inside Verde Tea Cafe in Mountain View. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://verdeteacafe.net/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Verde Tea Cafe\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n852 Villa St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/owHTiv\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nMountain View, CA 94041\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 210-9986\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Thu 11:30am-11:30pm; Fri-Sat 11:30am-12:30pm; Sun 11:30am-11:30pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Verde-Tea-Cafe/114204595267846?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Verde Tea Cafe \u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $ (Bubble Tea under $10)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Tpumps\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110661\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1440px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/TpumpsRose.jpg\" alt=\"Rose vanilla green milk tea at Tpumps.\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1920\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110661\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/TpumpsRose.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/TpumpsRose-400x533.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/TpumpsRose-800x1067.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/TpumpsRose-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/TpumpsRose-1180x1573.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/TpumpsRose-960x1280.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rose vanilla green milk tea at Tpumps. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>This peninsula tea cafe allows customers to customize their tea drinks exactly to their liking from a colorful menu of sweet and fruity options.

Every week it seems like a new store has popped up offering their take on this classic Hawaiian dish. Traditionally, the dish is served as a mix of raw seafood tossed in a soy marinade and served over rice. There are a number of variations of poke in Hawaii but not nearly as many as those that have emerged with this new trend. As usual, San Francisco serves as the hot bed for the recent poke bowl trend in the Bay Area but the peninsula and South Bay are speckled with plenty of great options. Here are five great restaurants to enjoy poke bowls South of San Francisco.

Toppings such as avocado, masago eggs and crab meat are included in the price. However, seaweed salad and extra scoops of avocado or fish are an additional charge. The soy-based house dressing is a tasty balance of sweet and savory but for a creamy, umami-packed treat go for the miso dressing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110611\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi.jpg\" alt=\"Ahi tuna and yellowtail with cucumbers, green onions, crab salad and avocado at Poki Bowl.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110611\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ahi tuna and yellowtail with cucumbers, green onions, crab salad and avocado at Poki Bowl. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110610\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl.jpg\" alt=\"Customers in line at Poki Bowl in San Jose.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110610\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Customers in line at Poki Bowl in San Jose. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.poki-bowl.com/menu\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Poki Bowl\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n4750 Almaden Expy.

For seafood options, Poki Bowl serves Ahi tuna, albacore, salmon, yellowtail and shrimp as well as octopus and tofu. For a traditional bowl I recommend the ahi tuna over kelp noodles and rice with a side of spicy crab salad and seaweed salad topped with a salty and sweet furikake seasoning. However, the kale salad topped with mixed seafood, creamy bites of avocado, cucumbers and onions is a delicious alternative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110606\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl.jpg\" alt=\"Salmon, ahi tuna and shrimp with mangos over a kale salad.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110606\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Salmon, ahi tuna and shrimp with mangos over a kale salad. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110604\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery.jpg\" alt=\"Customer ordering at Pokeatery in San Mateo.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110604\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Customer ordering at Pokeatery in San Mateo. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pokeatery.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Pokeatery\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n407 S B St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/VRLIRo\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Mateo CA 94401\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 389-2672\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Thu 11:30am-8pm; Fri-Sat 11:30am-8pm; Sun 11:30am-8pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pokeatery\" target=\"_blank\">Pokeatery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/pokeatery\" target=\"_blank\">@pokeatery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($10-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>PokéLOVE\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110608\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi.jpg\" alt=\"Ahi tuna and salmon in ponzu and spicy shoyu over cabbage slaw and brown rice.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110608\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ahi tuna and salmon in ponzu and spicy shoyu over cabbage slaw and brown rice. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>PokéLOVE\u003c/strong>, a brand new shop in Palo Alto, is already generating a good deal of attention with their extensive menu of high quality and sometimes unconventional ingredients.

Continuing with the theme of straying away from traditional poke, PokéLOVE’s dressings include sweet Thai chili, masala curry, and Korean chili paste.

The spicy tuna is a perfect option if you enjoy spicy tuna rolls at your favorite sushi bar. If you’re more a fan of the salty and savory flavors the shoyu dressing is your pick.

Every week it seems like a new store has popped up offering their take on this classic Hawaiian dish. Traditionally, the dish is served as a mix of raw seafood tossed in a soy marinade and served over rice. There are a number of variations of poke in Hawaii but not nearly as many as those that have emerged with this new trend. As usual, San Francisco serves as the hot bed for the recent poke bowl trend in the Bay Area but the peninsula and South Bay are speckled with plenty of great options. Here are five great restaurants to enjoy poke bowls South of San Francisco.

Toppings such as avocado, masago eggs and crab meat are included in the price. However, seaweed salad and extra scoops of avocado or fish are an additional charge. The soy-based house dressing is a tasty balance of sweet and savory but for a creamy, umami-packed treat go for the miso dressing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110611\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi.jpg\" alt=\"Ahi tuna and yellowtail with cucumbers, green onions, crab salad and avocado at Poki Bowl.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110611\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowlAhi-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ahi tuna and yellowtail with cucumbers, green onions, crab salad and avocado at Poki Bowl. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110610\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl.jpg\" alt=\"Customers in line at Poki Bowl in San Jose.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110610\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokiBowl-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Customers in line at Poki Bowl in San Jose. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.poki-bowl.com/menu\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Poki Bowl\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n4750 Almaden Expy.

Customers can begin their creations with options such as traditional rice as well as kelp noodles or a zesty citrus kale salad. For seafood options, Poki Bowl serves Ahi tuna, albacore, salmon, yellowtail and shrimp as well as octopus and tofu. For a traditional bowl I recommend the ahi tuna over kelp noodles and rice with a side of spicy crab salad and seaweed salad topped with a salty and sweet furikake seasoning. However, the kale salad topped with mixed seafood, creamy bites of avocado, cucumbers and onions is a delicious alternative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110606\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl.jpg\" alt=\"Salmon, ahi tuna and shrimp with mangos over a kale salad.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110606\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeateryKaleBowl-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Salmon, ahi tuna and shrimp with mangos over a kale salad. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110604\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery.jpg\" alt=\"Customer ordering at Pokeatery in San Mateo.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110604\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/Pokeatery-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Customer ordering at Pokeatery in San Mateo. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pokeatery.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Pokeatery\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n407 S B St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/VRLIRo\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Mateo CA 94401\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 389-2672\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Thu 11:30am-8pm; Fri-Sat 11:30am-8pm; Sun 11:30am-8pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pokeatery\" target=\"_blank\">Pokeatery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/pokeatery\" target=\"_blank\">@pokeatery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($10-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>PokéLOVE\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110608\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi.jpg\" alt=\"Ahi tuna and salmon in ponzu and spicy shoyu over cabbage slaw and brown rice.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110608\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveAhi-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ahi tuna and salmon in ponzu and spicy shoyu over cabbage slaw and brown rice. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>PokéLOVE\u003c/strong>, a brand new shop in Palo Alto, is already generating a good deal of attention with their extensive menu of high quality and sometimes unconventional ingredients.

Among the seafood options, PokéLOVE offers sustainably-farmed organic salmon from Sweden. The restaurant also serves organic chicken and tofu as protein options. Continuing with the theme of straying away from traditional poke, PokéLOVE’s dressings include sweet Thai chili, masala curry, and Korean chili paste. For those who enjoy the traditional flavor, the citrus forward ponzu sauce is wonderful over cubes of ahi tuna and yellowtail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110609\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveKaleShellfish.jpg\" alt=\"Scallops, octopus and shrimp in shoyu dressing over kale and roasted vegetables.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110609\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveKaleShellfish.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveKaleShellfish-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveKaleShellfish-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveKaleShellfish-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveKaleShellfish-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveKaleShellfish-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLoveKaleShellfish-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scallops, octopus and shrimp in shoyu dressing over kale and roasted vegetables. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110607\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLove.jpg\" alt=\"PokéLOVE employees building poke bowls\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110607\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLove.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLove-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLove-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLove-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLove-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLove-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/PokeLove-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">PokéLOVE employees building poke bowls \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://pokelove.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>PokéLOVE\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n855 El Camino Real #9 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/ZJ3P1C\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nPalo Alto, CA 94301\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 800-7388\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sun 11am-9pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/thepokelove/?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">PokéBOWL\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/thepokelove\" target=\"_blank\">@thepokelove\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($10-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Hawaiian Poke Bowl\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110602\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/HawaiianShoyuSalmon.jpg\" alt=\"The shoyu salmon bowl at Hawaiian Poke Bowl.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110602\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/HawaiianShoyuSalmon.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/HawaiianShoyuSalmon-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/HawaiianShoyuSalmon-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/HawaiianShoyuSalmon-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/HawaiianShoyuSalmon-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/HawaiianShoyuSalmon-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/HawaiianShoyuSalmon-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The shoyu salmon bowl at Hawaiian Poke Bowl. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Hawaiian Poke Bowl\u003c/strong> started small by only offering their organic poke creations from a tent at the San Pedro Square Farmers’ Market.

The concise menu offers salmon or ahi tuna in either a spicy mayo or shoyu dressing served over rice or mixed greens. Then top your bowl with green onions, ginger, avocado and jalapenos. The spicy tuna is a perfect option if you enjoy spicy tuna rolls at your favorite sushi bar. If you’re more a fan of the salty and savory flavors the shoyu dressing is your pick.

They offer a breakfast burrito, stuffed with the traditional scrambled eggs, cheese and potatoes, with the option to add sausage, bacon, ham or spinach. Then there’s the Burrito de Desayuno. The difference in names indicates whether you want a typical American-style breakfast burrito, or one that more resembles an actual burrito. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ordering the Burrito de Desayuno gets you a burrito filled with rice and beans, and allows you a more interesting range of filling options: chorizo and potatoes, \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machaca\" target=\"_blank\">machaca\u003c/a>, or huevos con nopales (eggs with cactus).

A French-ish riff on a breakfast burrito? Pourquoi pas! While there are standard touches--large slices of avocado, melted cheddar, pico de gallo — It diverts from tradition in several ways. It comes on grilled lavash instead of a tortilla. Instead of scrambled eggs, the eggs are gently fried and runny. There are no potatoes in the burrito. Instead, there’s a side dish of roasted fingerlings, which come with a delicate shallot cream. It’s drippy and delicious, but frustrating to eat: there’s not a lot of structural integrity, forcing you to eat as fast as you can before it falls apart. But the ignominy of eating it is worth it: for one, it’s delicious.

A French-ish riff on a breakfast burrito? Pourquoi pas! While there are standard touches--large slices of avocado, melted cheddar, pico de gallo — It diverts from tradition in several ways. It comes on grilled lavash instead of a tortilla. Instead of scrambled eggs, the eggs are gently fried and runny. There are no potatoes in the burrito. Instead, there’s a side dish of roasted fingerlings, which come with a delicate shallot cream. It’s drippy and delicious, but frustrating to eat: there’s not a lot of structural integrity, forcing you to eat as fast as you can before it falls apart. But the ignominy of eating it is worth it: for one, it’s delicious.
