Francisco (Plouf) and the pastry was a heavy and a little underdone, and the sauce was overwhelmingly sweet. Marigold’s version was perfect – the pastry airy and crisp, the fish tender, and the sauce (mushroom) light...

Might think about B44 or Plouf in Belden Place. B44 has lots of tapas that are really good. Plouf has some excellent first courses, calamari w/fennel, oysters, a number of others plus mussels and clams served in a big cast iron...

So confusing . . the message I clicked on even talked about a "Luna Park" Wrong Union Square, however. Usual recommendation is for one of the restaurants on Belden Lane, Plouf especially. Link: http

While I agree that the owners of Chez Papa and Chez Maman are very talented at making high quality restaurants (they also own Plouf on Belden alley) and that it will be nice to have yet another high quality restaurant on the...

We will be coming to SF from Orange County in October with family from England. These restaurants have been recommended – I’d sure appreciate your comments. Carnelian Room (for the view) Crustacean Hyde Street Bistro Ana...

And right down the alley (Belden Place) from Sam’s are B44 and Plouf. The former Catalan and the later French. Lots of great fish (especially salt cod) at B44, and some of the best bivalves around have ended their existence...

The $2 croissant is rich and flaky and very satisfying with a $3 bowl of cafe au lait. Are these are the same folks who have Plouf on Belden Place? They also have a bakery in Paris. Chouchou is open from 10:30am at Dewey and...

Le Petit Zinc or Lilly’s. (Or, better still, Plouf in SF.)

Plouf is my favorite place for mussels.

's Plouf Sam’s Grill If you could only pick 4 or 5 restaurants, which ones would you choose

Anjou Cafe Bastille Cafe Claude Cafe de la Presse Le Central Plouf Rouge et Blanc (wine bar, new) Lots of reports in the archive.

I read a nice review of Plouf a few threads down below. I love Plouf and especially crave their mussels. However, I remember reading in Anthony Bourdain’s first book how one his his main rules for dining out was...

Scala’s on Powell is trendy, fun but expensive. Daily Grill on Geary is informal . If you want to walk down to Plouf, very French and fun.

I have a 1:00 a.m. craving for Sunday morning French fries. Any suggestions? Plouf's are okay, as are Jeanty @ Jack’s. Campton Place has pretty good fries. What about Cafe de la Presse? Any low key options? I’m looking...

In downtown SF, I would recommend Cafe Claude, Cafe Bastille, Plouf and Anjou.
