Dinner at LuLu, San Francisco, CA
Hooray for solid food! This was our first foray into the realm of real food since getting sick on Monday night. LuLu's has made a few tweaks to their menu, but Friday night is still Suckling Pig night. Yum.
Sauteed Spinach $5
Not quite salty enough, but maybe I just can't taste because I am sick.
Roasted Sea Bass $20
The fish was tender and delicate and the mediterranean-eque compote upon which it was served balanced the fish nicely.
Short Ribs $22
These were both tender and flavorful. Although the accompanying veggies were a bit lacking.
Cheese Plate $12
A creamy camambert, a delicate blue, and a soft goat cheese served with a fig compote and apple slices. We forgot to take the picture until we had practically devoured the whole plate. It was that good.
Broccoli Rabe $5
This was flavored with chili and garlic and was cooked perfectly.
Suckling Pig $26
We always order this if we happen to be eating at LuLu on a Friday. It has not failed us yet. Those cripsy bits spinkled all over are fried pig skins and add a great texture. The only drawback is that the salad is always overdressed.
Apple Turnover $7
This was mediocre--a bit too sweet and not sour enough for Alexis. But Giao seemed to like it.

The service was again slipshod and late, so that 0 rating seems to be sticking.
