Suppenküche San Francisco

A little bit of Germany in SF

""Suppenküche" in San Francisco is a German restaurant right around the corner from where I live, and let me tell you, it's as authentic as it gets..."

I live right around the corner from this German restaurant and I always see the long lines outside the door and smell the delicious food coming from the open windows, but after a whole year I finally made it there! And I have to say, it did not disappoint.

I traveled around Germany all of June, and since being back I have craved meat, beer, and bread the true German way. Now that I've tasted Suppenkuche, I know my cravings will just get worse!

The portions here are large, and don't expect to go eating a healthy meal. Germans are all about heavy meats, sauces, and carbs. Which are some of my favorites. The bartenders know their beers though, and are happy to give you a taste of the draft choices since they are all German.

This spot is as authentic as it gets! Prost!

Trouble Coffee

Coffee with an edge!

"Trouble Coffee" in San Francisco is a category of its own. Let's say it belongs to the 'badass coffee' category. Makes me feel like a rough surfer girl!
