As Vanessa and I wind down our time in SF, we are trying to visit old favorites one more time. On Friday morning, I went by Tartine, the awesome bakery in the Mission, picked up some treats and met Vanessa near her office in the financial district. This allowed us to avoid the weekend crowds.
We had a gougere, this amazing puff pastry, that is very light. This was made with gruyere and pepper. See photos 1 and 3, below.
I had a frangipane tart with seasonal fruit on top. It was super tasty, but unfortunately V had to avoid it due to her food allergies. See photo 2.
V also got a currant scone, great as well.
I’ll miss Tartine. Shame I didn’t go more during my time in the city, although that is probably good news for my waistline.
