San Francisco- Bar Crudo

We were up in the Es Ef for 5 days. It was fun, though our reason for being there was far from fun.

Right off the airplane, we threw our stuff down at the apartment, and walked down to Bar Crudo, on Nob Hill. Celeste and John recommended the Lobster Salad. I gotta say that the ala carte shellfish bar and the sashimi inspired fish creations were the gig here at this little find. To our delight, there was a succinct, but well-represented beer and wine list. Lots of Belgians.

Here's an interesting review. Click here.

We've always had a soft spot for tasty morsels out of a half shell.

I had never tried this Hair of the Dog double IPA. I'd say it was a 19.5/20.


As advertised, the lobster salad was awesome. Seafood goes great with Belgian beer.

Two days later, we stopped by Mollusk Surf Shop and perused their wares just before closing. A candy store for soulful surfers, it was.

It was nice to be able to have some tasty IPAs available at all times. You can't even get middle tier California IPAs like these in Hawaii. Honolulu needs a Bevmo!
