7x7 Big Eats 2012 - Scream Sorbet
Location: 1 Ferry Building, San Francisco, California 94111
Date: Saturday, June 2nd.
Food: Any seasonal flavor
Price: $3 for a single scoop
Comments: Tiny scoop but it packs a big punch. The blood orange flavor was really
strong & almost crossed the line into bitter. $3 for such a tiny thing may
seem to be a lot but it is well worth it for a once in a while treat. We also
tried the Coconut Thai Basil which was a little too lime'y & basil'y. The
Coffee hazelnut our friend got was repeatedly described as "Wow, there's
like 10 cups of coffee in here! And real hazelnuts!"
7x7 Big Eats 2012 - Humphry Slocombe
Location: 2790 Harrison Street, San Francisco, California 94110
Date: Saturday, June 2nd.
Food: Secret Breakfast
Price: $3 for a single scoop
Comments: Who knew bourbon in cornflakes can taste so good?!? The actual ice cream
was creamy & really bourbon'y & the cornflakes added just the right amount
of sweet to the whole thing. I think we got a little happy afterwards, if you
know what I mean. We got this scoop @ the Ferry Building Farmers
Market so it is definitely lacking some ambiance which can only make this
better.
7x7 Big Eats 2012 - Namu's Ferry Plaza Farmers Market Stand
Location: 1 Ferry Building, San Francisco, California 94111
Date: Saturday, June 2nd.
Food: Korean Taco
Price: 2 for $5.00 (or 1 for $3.00)
Comments: Interesting. These were definitely innovative but they were difficult to eat &
they weren't very Korean at all. The chicken (left) was better than the beef
& the salsa on top was bland & took the flavor of kimchi'y rice down. Oh,
the seaweed was great except they got soggy & was difficult to wrap up the
inside
7x7 Big Eats 2012 - Hog Island Oyster Co.
Location: 1 Ferry Building #11-1, San Francisco, California 94111
Date: Saturday, June 2nd.
Food: 1 dozen Sweetwater oysters
Price: $24.00
Comments: There is this rule to only eat oysters in months that has the letter r but as
long as they are selling them, I'l going to buy them. These were meaty,
sweet, sea watery, & the metallic after taste just lingers in your mouth.
The only thing that I would have liked different was ice on the plate; they
make a huge difference in enhancing the flavor & texture of the oysters.
7x7 Big Eats 2012 - Miette
Location: 1 Ferry Building #10, San Francisco, California 94111
Date: Saturday, June 2nd.
Food: Ginger Snaps.
Price: $8.00
Comments: Perfectly stacked in their container, these ginger snaps really snaps when
you take the first bite. While you can definitely taste the ginger & the
spiciness does stay on your tongue for a while, you can also taste an
overwhelming amount of butter which was unexpected.
