Sushi in San Anselmo

Posted by: admin | Comments (2)

Last week we took our oldest daughter shopping for her prom dress at Gioia Boutique in San Anselmo which just happens to be located right next to Sushi 69. We stopped for sushi lunch before beginning the prom dress selection process. I had great plans to write up a fabulous post for Sushi 69 but my friend @SFDoug beat me to it. He writes so eloquently I thought I’d just send you to his blog to read about Sushi 69 instead of boring you with my rambles.

You may wonder why it is called Sushi 69. (Get your mind out of the gutter!) It’s called Sushi 69 because their address is 69 Center Blvd, San Anselmo, CA.

Healthy Yummy Food at Comforts in San Anselmo

Posted by: Sally | Comments (2)

If you are in a hurry and want something healthy and super yummy then Comforts Café in San Anselmo is the place to go. My favorite dish from Comforts is their Chinese Chicken (or Tofu) Salad. It has got to be the best Chinese Chicken Salad ever! It is always fresh and the dressing they use is delicious. The Chicken Okasan is also very popular in my household.

Comforts always has their fresh Chinese Chicken (or Tofu) Salad in a box and ready to go. This is a great lunch to grab when you are on the run. They also have a huge selection of prepared healthy food which you can pick up in the afternoon and bring home for dinner.

Comforts Café has two sides. One side is a sit down more formal café the other is the take out, more casual side. I usually go to the take out side because… I’m usually in a hurry but both sides are good and on a sunny day it is really nice to sit outside while dining.

In addition to all delicious and healthy meals they have a full service café where they serve excellent tasting cappuccinos, lattes, mochas, etc…

After filling up on fine food at Comforts you can take a stroll down San Anselmo Avenue to Gioia’s for a little boutique shopping.

Comforts is located at:

335 San Anselmo Avenue
San Anselmo, CA 94960
415.454.9840

Chocolate Delights

Posted by: Sally | Comments (1)

I like dark chocolate. I already finished the big box of chocolates that @octupusgrabbus sent to me from Turtle Alley so I needed to find some local chocolate. Actually, I wasn’t looking for chocolate, I was looking for a good coffee. I was craving a latte and I was in San Anselmo near Redhill shopping center and wanted something besides Starbucks or Peets. I saw the little, tiny, charming store in Redhill called Chocolate Delights and remembered they had coffee. We went in and were greeted by a very friendly woman who made us some delicious lattes; you know the kind served in a glass mug so you can see the layers? It was pretty and yummy. Of course, since I was sitting in the cute, little shop staring at the abundance of chocolate I just HAD to try some. I had a dark chocolate Belgium truffle. The truffle with the coffee was an absolutely wonderful tasting experience. It was also quite cozy to sit in this little shop while it was raining outside.
