this post is filed under Cuisine - Fusion, Location - San Francisco

I was only in SF for one night, and got in this one meal with my mom. Went to a newish fusion-y place called Butterfly near our new apartment.

ahi brothers tempura roll, tobiko caviar with thai black rice, cucumber salad and wasabi sauce

bowl of gnocchi and spring pea stir fry, chilled hearts of palm and asparagus salad with grated parmesan and white truffle oil

ponzu grilled niman ranch hanger steak, portobello mushroom and sweet pea stir fry with cabernet jus de veau and a potato gratin

Good food. The ahi roll was nice, but nothing too different from the crazy rolls you get at sushi places nowadays. The gnocchi was nice... good texture, but the dish as a whole was a bit bland. Hanger steak was good. Overall it was a nice meal. Place was a bit loud; there was a DJ and a lot of talking. Great view of the waterfront though.

bart and i were going to eat there around valentines day after i read some things about it online. i dont remember why we didnt go, but thanks for the review. what a good lil guinea pig.

For some reason, this post seems to draw a ton of comment spam, so I'm turning them off...
