Several days ago, my friend Emily, a beauty blogger on Instagram, and I met up for dinner at Fisherman’s Wharf. We live in the same city, but it’s so difficult to sync our schedule together just to go grab lunch or dinner. It’s not even funny how so often life and work gets in the way. But we try to meet up as often as we can. We had dinner at Fog Harbor Fish House for seafood and a great view.
Can you see Alcatraz in the distance?
I haven’t been to Fisherman’s Wharf in years. Partly because it’s all the way across the city, and partly because it’s always crowded since it’s a tourist destination. But I loved the amazing views as the sun set. Plus, it’s always fun to pretend to be a tourist in your own city.
In this week’s finds…
I seriously love soft pretzels and these pretzel rolls look like a fun addition to dinner.
This frozen raspberry peach bellini looks perfect for hot summer days.
Omg! How gorgeous are these s’mores brownie cupcakes? I mean it’s brownies + s’mores + cupcakes. My idea of a perfect dessert.
I’ve always loved coffee cake and this vanilla glazed blackberry peach coffee cake sounds exactly what I’m looking for.
These sweet cornmeal scones look so deliciously savory.
If you’re looking for a delicious comfort food with a servings of vegetables in it, you might want to try this sneaky zucchini mac and cheese with everything bagel chip crumbs.
Salads with a ton of ingredients and flavors are my favorite ones. This peachy chipotle chicken tortilla and avocado rice salad with fried halloumi sounds amazing.
Omg, what?! Hot bacon caprese salad with heirloom tomatoes.
Such a beautiful photo!
Thank you!
I love Fisherman’s Wharf- moved away years ago, but still one of my favorite places for chowder in a bread bowl (with a view!).
Oh my gosh, yes! What’s your favorite restaurant for chowder? I’ve been obsessed with clam chowder lately. lol
Always enjoy going to fisherman’s wharf and wandering along Embarcadero. 🙂
You are amazing! I love the recipes and photos. Living in San Francisco has to be a dream come true! Good luck in your job search, but I hope you never stop blogging!
Lovely photo! While living in Seattle, I made a point of visiting all the tourist spots!
I have never been to Seattle, but I really want to go!
Great post! I think I’m going to go to Fisherman’s Wharf, never been.
You have to visit!
I haven’t been to Fisherman’s Wharf in decades but have fun memories of it. Glad to know it’s still a great destination. Hope I get back there some day.
Definitely go back =)
Two things, I can’t believe that I was in San Francisco just after 9-11, and I took lots of pictures but never thought of sunrise or sunset photos. Where was my head? And the Frozen Raspberry Peach Bellini link is perfect! We were to Macaroni Grill and I got a frozen raspberry bellini, and I don’t remember what I ate that night but I’ve always remembered that drink! Thank you. Make it three things. Did I realize that you were a hygienist? Me too, or was for 40 some odd years…
I’m a dental hygienist. I’ve been working for about 3 years now =)
We too love playing “tourist in my own city” sometimes – it’s fun!!!
Definitely!
