OLIVIER'S BUTCHERY

Last week I stumbled upon a great little spot...Olivier's Butchery. Located in the heart of the Dogpatch district in San Francisco, this old fashioned French butchery offers high quality meats that they age, select and hand cut to order. In addition to their fabulous selection of meats, they also offer classes and recipes. A great San Francisco find!

THE ICE CREAM BAR

I am beyond excited to try out this new Cole Valley gem: The Ice Cream Bar (815 Cole Street, San Francisco, CA). This soda fountain and ice cream shop is a art deco lovers delight with 1930's vintage touches. Sit at the bar and watch mixologists make made-to-order sodas, milkshakes and floats just as they were made back at the turn of the 20th century (long before the soda fountain era of the 1950's that everyone associates with milkshakes and poodle skirts).  Along with shakes and malts, this menu will feature phosphates, crushes, lactarts, and panaceas. Never heard of them? Now it's time to try. The Ice Cream Bar opened on Saturday so you have no excuse not to try these tasty treats.

Miette, a San Francisco based bakery, always makes the most charming treats.  Of course they've done it again with these adorable Wallpaper Cookies.  Not just cute, but also an inspiration for entertaining at home.  What a great idea to create a cookie that matchs your tableware or room decor when hosting your own soirée.
