Saturdate in the City

What happens when you have to plan a date encompassing the words: batter, north, red and new adventure

First  you go to Stable Cafe and eat scones made by Batter Bakery.  Second you drive north to that big RED landmark.  Third instead of driving over it, your adventure is to walk it!  Although walking the Golden Gate bridge is a tourist thing to do, as a Bay Area resident everyone should try this once. Views are breathtaking and even though we started the walk in fog, before we knew it the sun was out and it felt like summer (for like a minute).  Here is our Saturdate in pictures.

I think this is postcard worthy...

Caffe DeLucchi

Breakfast Pizza

Ever go to a restaurant and they run out of the dish you were about to order? Well that happened to me today.  When I saw Caffe DeLucchi was serving buttermilk biscuits and gravy my mind and tummy was made up.  As I gave my order to the waitress, she told me the table next to me just got the last one. Darn it!  As I skimmed over the menu one last time, I decided to try something different and ordered a breakfast pizza.  Not really sure how the flavors would work for breakfast, I was overwhelmed by the tasty goodness this breakfast gave me.  My only complaint.... It was HUGE.  Next time I go back this is something I would definitely split with someone.

After breakfast, I went for a nice walk with Stella and took a few pictures of Sts. Peter and Paul Church before my battery ran out.

Name: Caffe DeLucchi
Where: North Beach, located on the corner of Columbus and Stockton
What I had: Black Forest Ham pizza with cheddar cheese, green onion and two sunny side eggs.
Did You Know: Caffe Delucchi has won SF Weekly "Best of 2pm Breakfast"
