New Sushi Restaurant Ahii in Tracy Ca.

Went here for lunch today it opened up two weeks ago very nice place of course very clean also very eleagant for a plce thats in a strip mall next to a walgreens. I was very surprised what also suprised me was there menu no lunch menu or specials no bento boxes all ala carte. I feel it is little on the pricey side. I ordered miso soup which was not so hot just warm and also california roll had water to drink cost me almost $11.00 dollars for one person. The california roll as you can see in the pic was not so large of pieces and also the rice was alittle warm that kinda of turned me off. Sorry to say I dont feel like I would go back to pricey and not as good as Blue fin here in tracy.

Fraiche Yougart and coffee shop, San Francisco ca.


Had a very delish cup of coffee this place is right next door to the woodhouse fish co. When we walked up to the restaurant the smell of the coffee was over whelming as we were waiting for our table at woodhouse we went and bought ourselfs a cup of the coffee it had a very bold but smooth flavor loved it. We asked what kind of coffee they used they told us it is Blue Bottle coffee. Also whats so special about this place is they make your coffee one cup at a time in these porcelain cups. After dinner went in for a second cup. I cant wait to go back to this place for a cup of coffee. and next time im also going to try the yougart.

Woodhouse Fish Co In San Francisco.


Went to a new resturant last night in San Francisco, It's called woodhouse fish company they have two locations one on market and one on fillmore i chose to visit the new location on filmore Nice place small but nice also has a bar you can sit and eat. We went around 4:30 close to 5pm and we had to wait about 15mins for a table its first come first serve their was 5 of us.As the time went on the place was packed and people were waiting outside for a table.We ordered thier make it your self lemonade it was kinda fun they give you a glass with ice and lemon juice and on the side a kraff of sparkling water and simple syrup something differnt little to tart for me. Now to the food for starters we ordered  New England clam chowder Excellent flavor nice and thick and you can taste the bacon flavor nice sized clams, Wedge salad comes with maytag blue cheese and fresh beets fresh cherry tomatoes it was excellent also. Prawn cocktail I didn't care for it myself thought the prawns were small and little on the mushy side.We also ordered the garlic bread it had alot of flavor garlic and buttery. For the entrees I ordered the Lobster roll sanwich I was not happy I didn't taste the lobster flavor and I called ahead to ask if it was a warm sandwich and the lady on the phone told me it was thats what I was looking for but it wasn't it was cold I guess she didnt understand my question. The bun was warm of course cause it was toasted. My Husband and our friends ordered the Fish and chips its Alaskan Cod they were Excellent the batter was nice and crispy had kind of a sweet flavor nice size pieces. Our friend ordered a crab salad he didn't like it said it was fishy and he found pieces of shells it was given back. For dessert we ordered the sourdough bread pudding we loved it nice and warm good flavor and housemade whipped cream.The wait staff are very friendly and ready to serve and their always watching your table to see if anything is needed and clean off any dishes. All in all it was a good meal I will defintly return the prices are moderate I would give it 5 stars I do recommend this resturant.

Mama Sue's Soul food.


Well we went to this soul food resturant in Sacramento ca, Last night well looks can be deciving soon as the food came it was like WOW food looks great thats about all it was looks the chicken was good but they refried it and it was very greasy the pork chops were mostly fat and bone not good at all. Waffle was soggy not crispy. The first clue for me when i walk into the place should have told me everything it was a ghost town no one was in there and it was saturday night at 6:30pm. Mac and cheese was ok Cream corn ewww was very dry rice and gravy was ok, Corn bread was dry I make excellent collard greens these were very bitter. I do not recommend this resturant at all Sorry.

Shrimp Scampi and Lobster Risotto!


Went to this resturant in mid december it's called Chops in Sacramento Ca, This resturant was also Excellent from the bread to the dinner Had the chopped salad to start we shared it. The scampi was very good but the Lobster Risotto was excellent there was a basalmic glaze on the bottom and the lobster chunks were very large and they gave you a very good amount. It is a moderate priced resturant. Service could have been alittle better i cant stand when they leave the empty plates on the table and i know they saw them many times. I do recommend this resturant it was very nice it was packed we took the last table in the bar very nice atmosphere.
