The Best Dishes Eater San Francisco’s Editors Ate in October | Eater SF

"When I think of squid dishes in San Francisco now, I think of the stuffed squid at this pop-up: a meaty, enormous trio that riffs on Lebanese kousa by stuffing the bodies with duck fried rice. Cutting through one feels like slicing a sausage; microgreens and oily dates add textural contrast alongside pepitas, while a smoked Aleppo labneh circling the plate creamifies every bite. Maz Naba’s finesse—honed at Rich Table, Coi, and Moongate Lounge—shows across the menu, but nowhere more than here; these punchy cephalopods feel like a hat trick announcing his victory." - Paolo Bicchieri
