"There aren’t too many diners like New Taraval Cafe left in San Francisco. It’s both a timeless piece of Americana nostalgia, with Irish breakfast and omelets on the plastic-sheathed menu, and a part of the city’s specific flavor of immigrant-owned and Asian-infused breakfast joints. New Taraval Cafe is even more singular, though, and that’s because its owner also has a penchant for baking inventive, delightful cookies on the side." - Paolo Bicchieri
