We’ve been in San Francisco since very late Thursday. The first three mornings, Lisa had to walk to meetings that had working breakfasts and on her way had walked past a place she wanted us to try for today’s breakfast. So we went there today when she finally had a free morning.
On our stroll there, I had to stop and ogle at this beautiful sight of goods on a pallet jack awaiting delivery into a restaurant:
How could over 300 pounds of genuine Caputo 00 pizza flour not stop any of you pizza nerds dead in your tracks? And what looks to be high quality olive oil? And although not San Marzanos, good local tomatoes canned in season?
The restaurant is Delarosa. I had not choice but to reserve a table for lunch. We split a pizza and I let Lisa choose (she’s getting us a free dinner tonight at Morton’s so gotta keep her happy).
The oven looked promising from across the room.
The funghi pizza had incredible mushrooms and red onions that clearly had been either soaked in ice water or otherwise treated to calm them a bit. It’s Roman style pizza, so the middle was a bit soft but still tasty. The dough hadn’t had a long ferment, so no complex yeast flavors.

I only wish I'd been there with you.
