Hard to believe... twelve years…read more I continue to stop here but it's been that long since I first reviewed this reliable and popular stand. On Saturdays, it's located in the back lot area between the Grande Creperie and Cholita Linda. I normally get the almond tart, one of their focaccias if I'm in a savory mood, or a brownie. Recently, I've been getting their scones and random things for myself and bran muffins for a friend. On a recent visit, I noticed a new item, the citrus syrup cake (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=0REiDP9oNibl7KpR4vDItg); a few days later, I cut a slice (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=mQnjKG7wYMJdMOqGFPe0xQ). Sigh, this brought back childhood memories of a moist butter cake that my mom used to buy for our family to share during after school or after dinner at home. Pair this with a cup of hot tea, coffee if that's your preference. Thank you, Levi, for being there from the beginning for me, offering suggestions. Eye the selection of goodies before hopping in the line to keep it flowing. I'll be here this morning and see what else is new.

Flavors are Jasmine tea, Vietnamese coffee, pho, sriracha, durian, guava, passion fruit, lychee and cognac. I discovered different flavors I've never had in chocolate. If you're adventurous with flavors, treat yourself or share with others. I love their durian truffle. The smell can be a turn off when you bite into it, but the smooth, creamy flavor is tasty. I wish it was more affordable, so I can indulge in it more often. They sell them in boxes of 4 for $20. I also like the jasmine tea, matcha chocolate. I stop by whenever I get the chance to get some for myself and gifts for others.

I stop here everytime when at the ferry building. I love the pastries they always have on display…read more The other chocolates on display always seem intimidating. One of these days, I will try one of the boxed chocolates they have. The person who helped me was super nice and gave me an honest opinion of the desserts on display. I was able to easily share my fears and thoughts. It was nice to be able to talk to someone about the items and understand what I was explaining. It wasn't too busy for a Thursday so maybe that's why he was able to take the time. All of the pastries I tried were beautiful, delicate, and as tasty as the display. 1. Peanut butter bar : I wasn't sure what to expect with this. It reminded me of a candy bar but 10xs better. The creamy chocolate and caramel with the crunch from the bits of nuts were perfect. It is a little rich. I wish I had a nice glass of milk or coffee to complete it. 2. Dandelion chocolate chip cookie : Nice buttery cookie that had a perfect crunch to it. It holds up perfect and it has perfect balance of chocolate. This is something my friend would love because she loves chocolate chip cookies but it didn't have too much if that makes sense. 3. Double chocolate cookie : This was chocolatey like he had explained but it didn't have the strong dark chocolate taste at the end. Personally, I think I prefer the chocolate chip cookie. 4. S'more : This by far was my favorite and I did not share. He had grabbed a handheld torch to roast the marshallow. What came out was perfection and it made the ride home in one piece. It tasted just like a s'more you would make when you're camping. It was fresh and marshmallow gooeyness that makes a delightful mess with every bite. I highly recommend this one if you love smores. Items were reasonably priced and each one was delicious. I highly recommend it for everyone to try.

I was hanging out in the Ferry Building at the end of a business trip and I decided to bring some…read moretreats back to my office. I'd driven past the Dandelion factory and wanted to experience a true San Francisco treat! I ended up ordering a box of dark chocolate brittle ($60 for a large box), not cheap but definitely high quality and locally made. My colleagues in the office LOVED it; people came into my office just to talk about it and some of them brought it up to me days later. I'd never had brittle like it... it was a thin layer of crunchy, flaky toffee sandwiched between coatings of the richest, velvetiest dark chocolate. Even though I meant for this to be a gift, I snagged a few pieces for myself for the drive home. I didn't know how legendary their hot chocolate was until reading these reviews, so now I have another good reason to go back!

The style here is more tender somehow, the pastry tends to crumble in tiny pieces rather than flake off in big flakes. But they do have some fun flavors and appreciate the savory options. Breakfast burrito w brisket - at $24, it's a bit steep, but man do they stuff it full of brisket. It's mostly meat, and the salsas are unique and delicious. Cookies - "levain" style cookies that are thick and tall, not the crisp and chewy kind. Fun flavors, I especially liked the salty sombitch and pistachio.

I got the iced mocha and the salty sombitch. The coffee was decent but the sombitch may not have been my cup of tea. It was a bit dry and too sweet for my liking but I can see someone else loving it! My only thing about this place was that it was a bit expensive for what it is. The prices were a bit above average compared to other places with similar aesthetics.

We are scone fanatics and Batter Bakery more than satisfies our scone taste buds!…read more We visited their pop up at the Ferry Building Farmers Market on Saturday and ordered their lemon currant scone and peach blueberry scone.

But now that I'm trying to get a little more plant-based, I have a little more motivation these days, plus I have this neat canvas bag I got for free from the Halal Guys at 53rd and 6th in Manhattan. So now I can carry produce and compete with all those elderly Chinese women with their flimsy pink bags. Oh yes, that last Chinese eggplant is MINE, old lady! I actually come here for the produce I never see at Safeway or even Whole Foods like Romanesco zucchini. Y'know, the big gray-green ones with the prominent ribbing and nutty taste. No inappropriate jokes please. I also come here to get at least a couple of bunches of Chinese long beans and those silky-firm white peaches. I have to say I have no problem filling up my Halal Guys bag with fresh goodies because the vendors here always have quality produce (see my photo gallery). It's worth coming just for the free samples but expect to get an elbow in the face from the more aggressive cheapskates. Nothing is ever free, is it? The market fits snugly into the ground floor of the Crocker Galleria every Thursday from 11AM to 3PM (plus Tuesdays during the summer). Come early if you want your pick of the freshest produce, but get your stinking hands off my Romanesco zucchini. That's mine!
