Three Spots, Three Meals, One Clear Winner!…read more Three of us decided to do a little food sampling at the Emeryville Public Market. We each ordered from a different vendor and shared everything. What a mixed bag! Super Duper Burger was hands down the winner! OMG, that burger was delicious! Juicy, perfectly cooked, with a great bun and homemade pickles that took it up another notch. Even the fries were hot, fresh, and cooked just right. We were all impressed! Next was Tasty Soul Food. Unfortunately, we weren't nearly as excited about this one. The lamb chops were extremely salty, even with the sweet Thai chili sauce. And trust me, nobody at our table is shy about salt! The garlic noodles were decent, but the sauce tasted more bottled than homemade. The basa fish was just okay. Nothing particularly memorable. The barbecue spot was another mixed experience. The ribs were disappointingly dry, but the cheddar jalapeño links were pretty good. They offered a nice selection of sauces, which we enjoyed. The mac and cheese was bland, and the greens were a little too salty. The restrooms were large and clean and well supplied. The cleanup staff was also very attentive with helping you with collecting your trays and sorting your recyclables very very helpful. And the PARKING was free, ample and across the street. Overall, it was fun trying three different places and comparing notes. That's one of the things I enjoy about a food hall. Everybody can get what they want, and nobody has to agree on where to eat! Would I go back? Absolutely. But next time, I'm heading straight to Super Duper for my own burger instead of sharing a bite!

There is plenty of parking on the street.

To those that closely follow the revitalization of the Historic R Street Corridor that took place…read morein the mid-2010s, "WAL Public Market" played a major role in renovating an old historic building and bringing it back to life. Located at this historic Lawrence Warehouse (built way back in the 1910's) and directly on R St. and tucked in between 11th & 12th Sts, WAL which is an acronym of "Warehouse Artist Lofts" became the focal point as this indoor area accommodates and operates various businesses year-round. Here, you will find a broad collection of small independently owned businesses that include "Fish Face Poke Bar", "MediumRare Records & Collectibles", "Shop Old Gold" (clothing), "bsR brand" (designer clothing), "Kechmara Designs" (Moroccan rugs), "Roderick Cooney Photography", and "Warehouse Artist Lofts" which showcase creative artist spaces for people that wish to live and be a part of this community experience. Additionally, there are several other small businesses that offer food & drink options which makes it an excellent one-stop shop. I will say that public access is readily available as normal business hours run from 8am-9pm Monday through Saturday and 11am-9pm on Sunday. Parking is surprisingly not too bad as I've been fairly lucky in the 10+ various times visiting here. However, it does get quite busy during the morning and lunch rush so keep that in mind. I also wanted to add that there are public restrooms (which require a code) but any WAL employee will be happy to provide that code to you. All in all, "WAL Public Market" is a truly unique, innovative, and rewarding experience. Whether you wish to indulge in an espresso drink, a poke bowl, a vinyl record, a vintage shirt, this place offers things that you can't find elsewhere. With the dazzling and eclectic creativity that went into this renovation and the surprisingly uplifting service I've received here over the years, I am giving this market an above average four-star rating.

"And I shall watch the ferry-boats And they'll get high…read moreOn a bluer ocean Against tomorrow's sky" (Van Morrison) The blue waters of the San Francisco Bay serve as a beautiful backdrop to the San Francisco Ferry Building Marketplace. It's more than just a food hall, it houses over 40 restaurants, cafés, and retail shops, so if you're looking for food, beverages, groceries, consumer goods, or bakery treats, the odds are excellent that you'll find it here. Oh, and they host a Farmer's Market three times a week too. The building has been around since 1898. Its name traces back to what was located on the site in the 1870's - a ferry boat house that was the only way most travelers and commuters could reach the city. Today, the building offers 65,000 sq ft in the first-floor Marketplace space, plus over 175,000 sq ft of upper floor office space. The Marketplace was buzzing with visitors on the day we stopped by. The building is gorgeous with a very high arched glass ceiling that lets natural light pour in on sunny days. We strolled through the Marketplace, stopped at Humphry Slocombe for ice cream cones, grabbed a bench outside on the pier, and just enjoyed the waterfront views and the great San Francisco vibes.

Same predictable crowd, just with different faces--fresher, younger, and probably with higher valuations. I'm here on a Thursday, right when the circus rolls into town. The food trucks and artisanal tents arrive to feed the hungry, self-proclaimed "elite" crowd. You know the type: tech bros and corporate mid-managers willing to wait forty minutes in line for an organically harvested heirloom radish just to feel something. Yet, against my better judgment, I kind of miss the hustle of coming out here. There's a manic, beautiful energy to it all. It's comforting, in a twisted way, to see those who stood the test of time. Take Gott's Roadside. It's a temple to the American classic, and by a wide margin, the best damn burger I've had in San Francisco. No unnecessary pretense, just grease, beef, and execution. I'm making it a personal mission to crush one before I escape next week. But let's be honest. The RoliRoti Porchetta Truck is the real, singular reason we are here. A traditional Italian sandwich hacked apart on a folding table on the sidewalk. It is a certified delicacy in this town--fatty, unctuous pork, crispy skin, and herbs, stuffed into a roll that has no right tasting that good. It's the kind of street food that makes you forgive this city for everything else.

They are in process of resto-modding it into a new food hall and market which I'm sure will be a huge hit when complete. The original signage was discovered in the building and is now back on the tower outside. Love how they are preserving as much as they can respectfully while upgrading necessarily to modernize. The design work is by Architect Kelly + Morgan and even though it's currently still WIP you can visit and have a peek before it starts getting crazy busy once its complete. Worth a fast 5-10 minute stop if you are into architecture.

Since I'm passing thru Napa, I didn't buy any "produce", as I will be on flying, and that doesn't make sense. However, I was able to taste and try many of the food vendors present. First off, OHM Coffee. As it was 83 degrees, I didn't want anything hot --- I opted for the Iced Matcha Latte. It was delicious! Nothing that made it "stand out", but I know a good Iced Matcha when I taste one --- definitely started my rounds around the market right! For breakfast, I've been craving a good breakfast burrito and found the vendor, "Earth's Bounty". It was a bit of a healthier take on the chorizo and potatoes --- they swapped it out for bacon and roasted veg. which included zucchini and sweet potatoes --- but I was pleasantly surprised! I devoured the whole thing!! The tortilla was warmed perfectly, and the melted cheese that crisped up on the grill made it EXCELLENT! To top it off, I visited a stand selling "MAUI STYLE POTATO CHIPS", helmed by the most friendly woman, named Sara. She was so awesome, and let me sample whatever I wanted. Needless to say, I purchased 3 bags of chips for $27. If bought individually, it would be $10 per bag. Such a great market to visit whenever your in Napa! 10/10!
