Thanh Long
Since Ken’s sister, Flo, and her husband, Paul, used to live out in San Francisco, they knew a bunch of good places to eat in the bay area. We ventured to Thanh Long while we were in San Francisco because it used to be a favorite of theirs. Thanh Long has a few sister restaurants but I think they are all known for the same thing – crab!
Thanh Long has been around for over 30 years (so they must be doing something right!) We started off the meal with some calamari:
And then got straight to the main course – fresh crab (don’t worry, it wasn’t crab from the California coast, which you’re not supposed to eat right now!):
The restaurant is also known for their garlic noodles and garlic rice (by the time the rice came around, my hands were way too greasy):
Another shot of the crabs and the garlic noodles:
The food was very good (although I thought the garlic noodles were a bit on the plain side) and it was just enough food for all of us. We had a really fun time and then got an uber to Flo and Paul’s favorite ice cream place, Mitchell’s, afterwards!
