With an entire week of good eats in California, it’s hard not to feature another day for my WIAW post!
On this particular day, we started with a trek to Liguria Bakery. Featured on Mario Batali’s ‘Ciao America’ for the best focaccia, we knew it was a spot we couldn’t miss! We ordered the pizza focaccia and a rosemary garlic focaccia. We dug in immediately!
Forget anything you ever thought you knew about focaccia. This was the best bread I’ve ever eaten!
And because we couldn’t just eat bread for breakfast, we headed on over to The Buena Vista, home of the original Irish Coffee. I ordered a Mexican omelette with fresh made sourdough bread. It was darn good bread, but nothing in comparison to what we had just eating from Liguria!
And then began the bar hopping..
We made the most of our walk to AT&T Park for a Giants’ game by hitting up a few local bars on the way.
Our first stop was Thirsty Bear Brewery, a CCOF certified organic brewery. We got a sampler of all of the beer on tap; it’s really the only way to go!
Second stop on our bar hopping tour was 21st Amendment Brewery. Again, another sampler of beer because there just isn’t any other way to go!
Finally, we made it over near the stadium, but we held out for just one last stop; Pete’s Tavern. I was told this was the place to be before games, so why not do what the locals do?
One (ok, maybe two) more beers and a delicious Big Kahuna teriyaki chicken sandwich with grilled pineapple topped off my bar hopping afternoon.
We ended the night at AT&T Park with an incredible view! It’s hard to complain about being in the top row of the stadium with a view like that.
A wonderful ending to another great day in San Francisco!
