After exploring the new
Exploratorium on
Pier 15 in San Francisco, we drove to
Tartine Bakery
on 600 Guerro Street for a quick lunch. When we finally arrived, around
4:30pm, the line to the bakery looked like a scene from old Soviet Russia.
We decided we could not wait this long, no matter how delicious the bread
and pastries looked.
We decided to have lunch/dinner nearby at the Pizzeria Delfina. We ordered two pizzas: the Margherita and the Fungi (mushroom).
Both pizzas were delicious and reminded us of the fine pizzas we ate recently at Ferraro's Bar e Ristorante in Maui, Hawaii.
After finishing the pizzas, we saw that the line in Tartine Bakery had
shortened considerably, so we decided to wait and see what all the fuss was
about. We ordered a Bavarian coconut 6" cake, a chocolate eclair, and
country bread.
Inna ate the eclair and thought it was perfect compared to the eclairs made by Amour Patisserie in Los Gatos.
The coconut "Bavarian" cake was also very delicious, and we had it during our New Year's Day Celebration.

The country bread was outstanding and had to be the best bread I have tasted
in the U.S. (except for the bread at
Bouchon Bistro in
Napa and the Plumed Horse
in Saratoga). I can understand why people wait in line at Tartine Bakery.
