It’s always fun to be at the Ferry Building Marketplace in San Francisco especially to meet old friends for lunch or dinner. I met up recently with long-time friends from Honolulu who were in the City for a few hours layover. Their cruise ship was docked right behind the Ferry Building so the Market Bar was the perfect venue for our get-together. It was not easy to decide which of the appetizing entrées to choose from and I narrowed my choices to three: 1) Local Halibut a la plancha with Asparagus, artichokes, leeks, citrus butter , 2) Wild Shrimp Linguine with olive oil, chile flakes, arugula , 3) Asparagus & Wild Salmon Risotto with fava leaves. Really loved my risotto! It was quite tasty and the kitchen didn’t skimp on the chunks of salmon. We were a large group and arrived at various times but the staff was accommodating and attentive. 1 Ferry Building # 36 San Francisco , CA 94111-4230 (415) 434-1100 http://www.marketbar.com/ * * * Image by Charie
