Lai Hong Lounge's Must-Have Cheong Fan | Chinatown, San Francisco

Cheong fan, or rice noodle rolls, are a common sight on dim sum carts, and just as commonly thick or gummy. Not at the new Lai Hong Lounge, where the cheong fan with fish and yellow chives are one of the dim sum restaurant's best dishes, or at Yummy Dim Sum & Fast Food, where the rolls enclose dozens of fresh cilantro leaves. 

Armitage Pizzeria

Eamonn's

The Brixton

Piccolo Sogno Due

Golden Deli

Tsujita

La Mascota Bakery

Red Hill

A lot of people hate the three-legged chairs here, but the quality of the food outweighs any décor concerns. The mussels, cooked in orange-scented wheat beer, are a delicious mainstay. We enjoyed the California squid with black-olive vinaigrette on a recent visit too.

Diablo

Should bananas and peanuts ever be featured on a taco? No, probably not. But they are here, so do with that what you will. The Micheladas are similarly novel, but in a more delicious way: Instead of mixing beer with spiced tomato juice, the brews come with a popsicle full of those Mexican flavors, which you can dunk and bite and melt at will. The sweet paletas are quite good too.

New Tu Do

Nothing cures the summer doldrums like a plate of cha gio (imperial rolls) and a bowl of bun (cold Vietnamese rice noodles). At New Tu Do on the eastern edge of Chinatown, the cha gio are left whole for handy lettuce-leaf rolling, and the bun is available in a blissfully limitless variety of protein permutations.
