Home's Sunday Brunch

Yesterday, three friends and I went out to Home's sunday brunch.

Needless to say, it was a butter filled brunch. A small plate of pound cake and cranberry bread came out accompanied by butter. Jonah promptly spread butter on the poundcake and took a bite before realizing what he had done. Needless to say the bread were quite nice but two big pats of butter? Really?
Kathryn ordered the Croissant sandwich, which I've always wondered about. Myself, I'll eat pretty much anything, but a croissant sandwaich? Butter filled pastry sliced in half and stuffed with egg, meat, and cheese. Now thats how America took a decadent thing from the french and became obese.
I, myself ordered a bloody mary from their build your own blood mary bar. A wonderful sampling of condiments. I love condiments!!! So by the time my meal of beef brisket hash I was swimming in a tomato haze, but certainly remember eating the plainest hash I've had in a long time.
So if you are thinking about trying Home's brunch, do yourself a favor, order a blood mary and pile enough condiments on so you wont need to order anything else.

Bossa Nova's Mussels

Sunday October 26th,
Hanging out at Bossa Nova in San Francisco's SOMA, listening to live brazilian music from a real live brazilian I stumbled upon a wonder "bucket" of mussels. I love trying everything, which is not to say I love everything, but last night I found a wonderful dish which will remain with me for quite awhile.
The Bossa Nova's mussels are an experience! With a coconut milk sauce infused with cilantro, onions, and peppers I'd recommend this dish to everyone. Accompanying it, I sipped on one of their Caiprinaha's infused with jalepeno and watermelon.
Tell the bartender, Cat, to grind up a little extra jalapeno if you're into a real kick and do what I did. Stop talking, stop socializing and eat.
