Restaurants, Bakeries, Cafe’s, Food Trucks, etc.
Any place that you’ve tried amazing food and want to share.
I find community input much more reliable than Google reviews, share your favorite spots!
Eem (Thai) and Gado Gado (Indonesian) are two personal favorites! Both have really delicious food and drinks.
Khun Pic’s Bahn Thai on Belmont (a k a: the secret Thai restaurant). Hard to spot place run by 2 people, a cook and a waiter, in an incredible house. You can walk right by it without noticing it tucked in a garden nook behing an iron gate between old city buildings. No credit cards, no reservations, no phone, open only three days a week for a few hours. Order the catfish (really!). Delicious food and a one of a kind experience.
Love me some Marrakesh, though Moroccan food is eaten barehanded, so not everyones cup of tea.
Pelmeni Pelmeni in Hawthorne Asylum is a great cart, though area parking is kind of a pain.
Jame John Cafe was awesome.
Ken’s Artisan Bakery has been the best Cafe I’ve tried so far, but it does get very busy
Edit: looks like James John Cafe is permanently closed :(
Beau Thai
It’s been a long time since I was there, but I loved the tempeh pad thai.
