Kimchi Donuts from Dunkin' Donuts in Korea

This looks a lot like the curry pan buns I used to buy from Japanese bakeries, except with kimchi filling. I love curry pan and kimchi, so I'm pretty sure I would love these too :)

Street Food Profiles: Coolhaus Ice Cream Sandwiches in Los Angeles, California

These ice cream sandwiches look great! I know the wrapper is edible, but do people actually eat with their ice cream sandwich? What is the taste and texture like?

Crawfish at The Boiling Crab in California

@Burger365 They're not. The only ban I know of is in San Francisco supermarkets (someone can correct me on this). The Boiling Crab is safe for now :)

Does one need a microwave?

I agree with sousvide. It's convenient for leftovers when I'm not patient enough to wait for the oven to heat, and you can buy them for far less than $130 (craigslist, garage sales, flea markets...).

Pascal Rigo's Goat Cheese Tart with Pears (Tarte au Chevre avec des Poires)

Wow, this looks so luxurious. I wonder if it would go with the mulled red wine syrup I made a few weeks ago.

Karen Bornarth's and Roger Gural's Croissants

This looks like a fun project, but I don't have a stand mixer. Would it be possible to make the dough with a hand mixer or by hand?

Cook the Book: 'Gourmet Today'

The first cookbook I bought was Washoku. Oddly enough, I just opened it up yesterday for the first time in months.

First Look: Some Great Pizza at Emilia's Pizzeria in Berkeley, California

I used to live 2 buildings away from this intersection! Why did I move?!

San Francisco food trucks

Sorry, I wish I could be of more help, but honestly I've never eaten from a food truck in SF. Here's most of the info I could find:

Serious Eats just had a post about a creme brulee cart in the Mission District (they also mention a magic curry cart-magic curry!)
http://www.seriouseats.com/2009/05/creme-brulee-cart-man-san-francisco-bay-area-dolores-park-ca.html

I have also heard good reviews of a Belgian Waffle truck at the Civic Center Farmer's Market (I think they may be on Wednesdays): http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/458178

Mission Street Food used to be in a truck before it moved to a more permanent location: http://blog.missionstreetfood.com/

You might also try doing a search on the SF boards on Chowhound. I think I remember seeing some threads about food trucks, but some may be outside of SF proper.

Good Luck! Hopefully, others have a better suggestions :)

Where to eat in SF?

Wow, I need to eat out more, because I haven't been to any of those places, but out of the list, I have heard good things about Boulangerie, Zarzuela, and Anamandara :)

You can also take a look at this list for ideas:
http://7x7.com/content/eat-drink/big-eat-sf-100-things-try-you-die

Some places on the list I like are:

-Turtle Tower for pho ga...try #10 if you like offal :D
-La Taqueria for burritos/quesadillas/tacos...but I'm sure others can chime in with another taqueria (everyone has their own favorite)
-Tartine Bakery for breakfast/brunch. I'm partial to their almond croissants, bread pudding, and cafe au lait, but just know that lines can get long.
-Burma Superstar for Burmese food. The wait for this place can be heinous, but you can put your name & cell phone # down and then walk to Green Apple Bookstore to pass the time
-Blue Bottle Coffee is pretty good if you like coffee. I'm a lightweight, so I like the New Orleans Iced Coffee.
-Hog Island Oyster Co...the recommended clam chowder is pretty good
-Zuni Cafe for their roast chicken & bread salad. It's priced for 2 people and it takes 50min-1hour to cook, so I wouldn't go it alone unless you REALLY want to try it.
-never been but want to try: SPQR/A16, Rosamunde Sausage Grill (I hear you can grab a beer next door), Delfina/Pizzeria Delfina (check out Slice for their review), Aziza, San Tung, Sebo...

Ok, this post is getting way longer than I intended. I'll leave the rest to other SF Serious Eaters :) I hope you have a good trip and happy eating!

Genius Idea or Absolute Disaster

I recently tried to make zucchini bread pancakes, which made sense in my brain, but didn't translate well to the plate. I still ate them : \

Potato leek au gratin sounds delicious. I think I'll give that a try some day after our already over-stocked Thanksgiving dinner.
