are competative price-wise. When BB was selling Masa Organics rice it was more expensive than at FP. I could tell you a story there but it isn;'t appropriate for a public forum. Acme is no cheaper at BB than at FP. Same prices...

strongly second the notion of going to FC for brunch—their brunch is truly excellent, up there with Universal’s or Citizen Cake's. Also, I strongly second either L’Osteria or Mario’s in North Beach for...

curry which was spiced to perfection, eaten with balls of sticky rice. Fantastic. I tried Thai Nakorn’s “wok-hey” pad see ew which was quite delicious (and I’m sure I’ll be going back for it) yet...
