Yojimbo sushi (Alameda): my go-to local spot. Good Korean style spicy miso pork ramen

Ramen shop (Oakland): "fancy" ramen, yummy but kind of on the expensive side. Gets really busy, come early to avoid the long wait.

Sobo ramen (Oakland): crazy number of different broths (tonkatsu, shoyu, etc.) but I love the tonkatsu with a little mayu (black garlic oil).

Went to Teo Chow Noodle Shack on Cushing in Fremont for dinner tonight. It was surprisingly yummy. Simple, clean but full flavor and lots of meat, veggies and noodles. Has potential for a meet these upcoming cold months.

I do not think the ramen is worth how much I paid for (comparing to other places I like better for a cheaper price) but I will DEFINITELY come again for those delicious sweet potato fries with the curry aioli ! Panko deep-fried egg is good too !

Hey peeps just a quick heads up for people not-in-the-know in that area !

I recent picked up some food at one of my favorite spots in SF which I personally think is the best place to buy "sushi to-go"

Yum Yum Fish
2181 Irving St
San Francisco, CA 94122
b/t 22nd Ave & 23rd Ave in Outer Sunset

I have been buying sushi here since I first moved to SF in 2011 and I want to let everyone know that I am always satisfied and happy when I order !

I classify sushi/seafood in three categories :
-Super-duper dirt cheap (Low quality sushi that you can fill up on $2-$4 per roll)

-Best bang for your buck (Moderate-high quality sushi that your wallet can handle)

-High-priced overly expensive (Grade A sushi made from licensed chefs where a few hand rolls will cost you this week's paycheck)

Everything is very subjective depending on individuals taste but overall many people can tell what what is bad , what is good , and what is better :p

Yum yum fish is the best bang for your buck !

Chirashi bowl $15.45
This is my usual I get when I am here ! You will actually be surprised that it is a pretty big bowl of chirashi ! I drop in and order a chirashi bowl to go , walk over to Wonderful (my favorite boba place) to get a drink and come back to see my order is ready ! Also try to get there earlier in the day ! Obviously because the seafood is fresher but they close early as well when they no longer have rice to serve !

OMG. That egg in the Ramen. There's a place in Hawaii just outside of Waikiki that has a panko egg over a pork bowl. The place is called Your Kitchen. It was the most magical thing I've eaten in a while.

I go nuts for chirashi so far haven't been impressed by the ones in SF when you consider price/quality/quantity. Yumyum I'll make a mental notes to try.

Have you ate at Tomodachi in Hayward or Sushi House in Alameda. Tomodachi is the better of the two, sushi house is a slightly less flavorfull on the rice but makes up for it in shear qty. Both are reasonably priced around 15-18.

Thanks for this bump. I totally forgot about this thread!

Recently had some fresh Ahi Poke at:

Poki Bowl
4750 Almaden Expy
Ste A
Blossom Valley
San Jose, CA 95118
(669) 247-7654

http://www.yelp.com/biz/poki-bowl-sa...f=yelp-android

It's Chipotle style (process not lack of quality) where you go down the line to pick your ahi, salmon, etc. then your toppings. Everything is super fresh! I had my bowl with rice. Next time I might have it as a salad.

There's another new poke place in downtown San Jose that I will have to try. Then another opening up soon in Cupertino.

Poke FTW!

Another place I've been frequenting is:

Kotetsu
2089 El Camino Real
Santa Clara, CA 95050
(408) 557-0822

http://www.yelp.com/biz/kotetsu-sant...f=yelp-android

I just can't get enough ramen! Especially now that the weather is calling for warm slurpy bowls of broth! Kotetsu is yummy and consistent. Try the black pepper chicken karaage as an appetizer :)
