Beyond Downtown San Francisco


Now that I have a little more time to spend outside of work I was able to catch up with some friends that I've been meaning to see.  I caught the correct train in the right direction and got off at the right stop without mishap and even got a seat and got in some knitting.
I was a little early so I got to people watch outside the train until Sarah walked up at the appointed time.  After a little indecision we decided to go to a place we thought would be Oaxacan, but turned out to be Salvadoran instead.  But that turned out to be ok, because after a peek at Cafe Platano's delicious sounding menu we were sold.

While waiting for Alain, Sarah and I poured over the menu and had everything picked out before he arrived.  Although we didn't even make it off the small plates menu.  We made excellent choices including: fried platanos, fried yuca, an avocado salad, pastelitos, corn tamales and of course pupusas.  Sadly as often happens with food I was to excited to remember to take and pictures of anything.  But it was great to catch up with Sarah and Alain, to get a glimpse of their neighborhood, and to help them find a tasty new place to eat.
