Some streets in Florence just never get too old ❤️#travelerinitaly Back in the 'hood 💚💚💚#chefico #firenze Stumbled upon this gem of a snack bar @bodegasf in North Beach: quaint selection of wines including some juicy natty picks from @idlewildwines and @broccellars and sweep you off your taste buds bites like sweet potato tacos and za'atar spiced lamb meatballs over thick labneh decked in fresh dill, mint and sumac 😍 🥂🌮🍠#eaterSF Bodylicious wowza yum blanc de blancs champers, unusual creamy funky cheese (redhawk by cowgirl!) with a salty shell and a few dears @vervewine is all this lush could have wished for in a birthday Aperitivo! 🎉Thanks for all the wishes, too 😍 😘 See ya in a few, Italia! 🥂🧀🍾👅#sanfrancisco #leoseason Spending my last Sunday in San Francisco and last day as a ripe 32 perusing the fragrant bounty that is California at the Civic Plaza farmer's market- very affordable, varied and delicious seasonal produce here! 🍑🥗#califresh #leoseason The mission district in San Francisco is a very special place, besides burritos and bi-rite ice cream there are socially impactful mural projects and hubs like the women's center here- a non-profit with community programs like financial and wellness coaching plus other resources for female empowerment. So far, the mission is proving to be my favorite quarter of San Francisco ❤️ Who says food tours can't be integral to a balanced travel diet? Our culinary walks include vitamins, protein, fiber, essential fats and antioxidants as you see- and the other stops fill in the rest of the food groups- like gelato! Plus with walking in between, they are basically the best way to diet when in Florence. Auguri are in order to @mz.nutrition- thanks for sharing your food-filled pics from our progressive dinner crawl, it was a close call but you won July's #curiousinflorence tour giveaway! 🎉 And grazie mille to all our guests who also participated, your bites made us hungry! 🇮🇹 🍷🍝#Florence #foodtours A few months later and tasty wine memories still lingering from visiting @ariannaocchipinti's vineyards in Sicily's lone DOCG of Vittoria, in what I'd deem the wild "east", speckled with yellow broom shrub. Arianna's biodynamic, terroir-driven wines are fresh and elegant, her Nero d'Avola blossomed with raspberry, spiced lightly like pie, ethereally earthy and goldilocks "just right" juicy. Anyone been down the gusty, meadow road of SP68? #vinepair 🍷 🇮🇹 Kinda dug this whole weekend in Sonoma wine country reunited with real deal besties like @jenna.e.40, but also the part about visiting @ryme_cellars, their ribolla gialla literally made me dance- fermented with a touch of skin contact for those waxy, caramel nosy notes I personally love plus freshly bloomed white flowers and a juicy bite of a crunchy bartlett pear 🤤🍐👯#leoseason #winelife Maccarrones de Busa cun Arrizonis- Sardinian for: fresh maccaroni melded with a creamy uni tomato sauce and grated with dried tuna heart. I've been to Sardegna, I eat around Italy but San Francisco is where I've first tasted this region's plays with fish offal and its coveted umami taffy of the sea (bottarga- the spag buried in it is unreal too), if you live in SF you've probably heard of regional Sardinian La Ciccia and if you haven't been and have a voracious palate- then do yourself a favor and eat here. If you're (sadly) not into seafood, they do have some other goods like grilled lamb, meaty sughi, saffron and pecorino pastas, in-house charcuterie and addictive warm crisp oily pecorino dusted flatbreads pani guttiau 🍞 🐟 ❤️ 🍝 #eaterSF Curious about Persian food? This Sunday August 5th I'll be matching wines with Northern Iranian culinary bites by chef Hanif Sadyr @komaajfood from 6-8pm. Pictured here are addictive "zeitun parvardeh", a green olive appetizer smothered in a herby walnut and pomegranate molasses paste- there will be 4 savory snacks with 3 different wines plus a saffron honey sweet pastry "komaaj" to match with a splash of pomegranate wine!Tickets & menu deets via @komaajfood- hope to see you there! 🍽🇮🇷❤️#komaajfood #curiousappetite #popup "Four courses, four restaurants, a knowledgeable guide to tell us about this captivating city as we walk through cobblestones streets which feel like home" Just a few words from @curvesandacarryon's review of our Progressive Dining Crawl in Florence- a concept food walk I brought to Florence after working as a food tour guide in my hometown of Seattle with @show.me.seattle. I'm so grateful too how far this unique feast has come, and the support friends like @girlinflorence have shown. I always remember my home on the dinner crawl, so I'm glad others feel at home here too ❤️#curiousinflorence #foodtours Exploring Chinatown, historic dive bars, San Francisco's slutty past and snacking on dumplings thanks to @keanetravels aka best tour guide award winner 2018 #SanFrancisco Are you in San Fran or know folks here? Lovely @ashleygoldsmith_ has organized a bake & craft fundraiser to help families separated at the border. The sale is tomorrow (monday) from 4-7pm @alsplacesf on Valencia where all cash proceeds will go to @raicestexas, a non-profit apart of the persistence to make America kind again. There are tasty crafty tables on the list from cookies, breads, illustrations, body chemistry, performances and more! I'll be contributing fresh watermelon "fauxitos" to thirsty visitors- hope to see you there and please pass the word along! #keepfamiliestogether 🌎
