Velo Rouge Cafe - Review - Richmond - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"The bike theme runs deep at this Richmond cafe—but you don’t need to ride up to this all-day spot on two wheels to enjoy it. There are espresso drinks and pastries for a quick refuel before a walk in Golden Gate Park, plus great breakfast plates and wraps filled with fried chicken or hummus and vegetables. The sleeper hit is their tuna melt, a saucy and slightly sweet panini that’s designed to be taken away and eaten during a sunny lunch. Food Rundown The Ullrich Tuna Melt Charred grill marks, salty-sweet tuna salad, and a swipe of dijon—Velo Rouge keeps it classic with their tuna melt, and the commitment to simplicity pays off. This sandwich is fantastic, and it also comes with a generous side salad. photo credit: Julia Chen Merckx Wrap The components of this wrap—fried chicken, red onion, and mixed greens—are great on their own, but it's overdressed and ends up tasting mostly like honey mustard." - Julia Chen
