Pork Store cafe on 16th between misson and valenica. Greasy spoon, but the best biscuits and bacon in the city. I highly recommend the scralifornia.
what if I don't eat pork?
Kate's Kitchen on Haight between Fillmore and Waller. Beware the enormous portions: If you get the "French Toast Orgy" it is so huge that two people can't even finish it.
Chloe's in Noe Valley.
there's more than pork at the pork store...but why eat a full brunch when you could ditch eggs for the truly transcendent pastries at Tartine (18th at Guererro). Seriously, it's on another plane. Try the morning buns and bread pudding.
and then stroll over to dolores park for some people watching
am I allowed to say "hi orli" in fluther?
this may be a problem
Hi !
There needs to be a click on orli's name and go to a chat room function
You are allowed...
lol
This is a crazy free for all, where everything goes
ok...but if I want to have a chat with the woman responsible for a democratic congress
without her nosey boyf peeking
and what if there are other people in here trying to actually talk about brunch?
you need a different service :)
good poind
point
but I just met her here, she's my brunch specialist
I guess for now it should be more "on topic"
and I have a question
that she needs to clarify
I should be able to type to her, or email her (craig's list style)
Righto... yeah, a lot of people are saying that
but we don't know the first thing about programming
if I could click on the green name, and type straight to obs, that'd would be useful
and would cut down on clutter
good idea
this is fun btw
glad you like it :)
It's a difficult thing, though, because then we have public AND private converstaions
true, but if people start askinng one another direct clarifying questions in the public convos you'll get the situation where you can't follow any one track
mmm... how do you mean?
like if you want to ask a question that's related?
well, say I'm looking at brunch places, and then someone says the pork store's good, but I wanna know if they have eggs benedict, but that's not really important to the other people who are more into tartine and it's trancendent morning buns
then I should be able to ask pork store lady without cluttering the page
ah.
there's alway the string model
where you can have further conversations linked under a part of one
that's a good point
with the outline style so they're usually minimized
right... or maybe we can color-code things
either you can click on the person and chat straight to them, or even better, you click on them for a "clarification" that would come up in their boxes on the rigth
Interesting
then you get a sub-string and that line becomes, say blue, meaning I can click on it to follow it out of "good brunch places in SF", into "more on the pork store"
fave brunch place: boogaloo's @ 22nd and valencia. food's awesome, people are friendly, place is cool. long lines if you're not a parent and there at 8:30am. i'm a parent and i get there at 8:30am.
otherwise, if there are enough people here to make this more than just fun, it'll be too cluttered to be useful
oops...see
get a room
exactly :)
EXACTLY!
this is where the ascii porn kicks in
it's our "special feature"
warning...layman present
warning: girlfriend present
don't patronize me
how do things make it into my "questions for you" box?
I'm the layman
oh. carry on then
:)
back to that breakfast conversation: if you can make it to the east bay, you must check out the Thai Breakfast near Ashby BART.
I wouldn't know an ascii if it kicked my ass (can they do that?)
ooooohhhh...ben! I should be able to put a "hell yes" check next to orli's answer without wasting valuable scanning space
that's in our next batch of features, rating answers.
we're still feeling out how best to guide this live-post/chat/ so we can balance simplicity, ease of information and live-ness.
I know what I'm looking for now... and then back to work. I need this page to be only actual answers to questions, but those answers should be further discussable without making the page unusable (as this one now is) so...I should be able to click on a string and ad to it in a way that you could see there more to it, but you'd have to click to expand
and while I like the idea of rating answers, I don't know that a rating system is necessary or would be used. I think just double click if you agree and it gets a star or something
It'll be a good/no comment sort of thing
yes, pork store is good...I don't need to give it (or moreover the assertion that pork store is good) a number of stars
no stars for questions.
If I wanna, then I double click and can add to the string under pork store, turning that answer blue to indicate that there's more under it if you're interested
if you're more into tartine, then there's no mess under pork store to distract you and bury the tartine rec in a pile of commentary on the morality of eating bacon
I click on the green name and get a drawdown that say agree, comment, etc.
good work you guys. I'm out and will be back
Luna on Castro b/n 18th and 19th. Great food, heated garden, cat.
Sears has the best pancakes i have ever had...ever!
It looks like a certain kfingerman is really dominating this discussion. But, if I may have a word in edgewise, I would suggest Mama's in North Beach. The omelette's are fantastic.
also, la note in berkeley. f-ing fantastic cuppa coffee and french toast.
and if you think that "brunch" might be equated with "adventure," the farmer's market at the ferry building on saturday -- sample your way through!
La Note. holy crap. its amazing.
Hello all the people in this crazy conversation I know and love.
I agree that La Note and Boogaloos are excellent. Also Mama's in Oakland for the scene, the coffee mugs, rocking waitresses, and good omlettes.
And if you like southern food, the Chicken and Waffles place in Jack London Square. awesome any time of day or night.
Maybe its just because i know who some of you are but that was hysterical and made me smile so if you had to stay on point and not have silly side talk, you’d be missing out on people smiling. maybe you could have something where if you are trailing off you could click and trail over to a sidebar conversation thats still visible to anyone on the page but not getting topic oriented people mad.
i just realized that this topic is 2 years old and most likely you’ve cleared all this up anyway. but since i already typed all this, i’ll just go ahead and post it then. what the hell.
oh but also “weird fish” on mission is supposed to be amazing for brunch, though lately i’ve been dining at “craigs place” accross the st. from tartine even though i’m theoretically against it in principle. good veggie burgers.
There’s several places in lower haight.
