The Farallon Cookbook: The Very Best of San Francisco Cuisine

Rating:
Summary: Sumptuous San Francisco Food
Review: I am surprised that this book has not been reviewed before...I have been to Farallon for lunch today as part of San Francisco Dine-About-Town promotion, where a set 3 course lunch costs just $19.95 during the month of January. This is one of the top sea food restaurants in town and I was not disappointed. Both the food and the decor were outstanding. I enjoyed my lunch so much that I went and bought the book from the near by Borders Bookstore on Powell Street.

Tonight, I put the book to test and invited few friends over to dinner. After a hard days work in investment banking, together we prepared Rosemary-Seared Prawns with Saffron Risotto and Roasted-Beef Vinaigrette with Pea Shoot Salad. It took a long time to prepare the food but the result was a sumptuous dine in with friends. What a way to relax! I gave this book only four stars just because the menus are very complex and time consuming but well worth the effort. I'll definitely visit the restaurant again.
