(About 100 miles South of S.F.)


Has not only great ribs, brisket, chicken & hot sausages, but a nice selection of sauces at each table to add extra "fire"

Do want to give them a `thumbs up' recommendation. They're one of the few places where you can get _real_ slow smoked B.B.Q. here in Silicon Valley.

Located on the lake in Camp Richardson just up hwy. 89 from the intersection with hwy. 50. You have to pay $3 to get into Camp Richardson; they'll deduct it from your bill at the Beacon.
Outstanding garlic and chile shrimp appetizer with a respectable andouille sausage sandwich

A must for any chile-head. Their Jamaican Jerked Chicken is almost up to Jon Shemitz's standards (less heat, but all the flavor). Garlic smashed potatoes for those who need something to cut the heat. Highly recommended

The Columbus location is older, more traditional chinatown decor, the Broadway location is black tile with neon. Be sure to order the smoked duck. When I order, I order "medium" and it's about as hot as I can manage. Also very good onion cake (not spicy, just good).

Garlicy and rich. Avoid "The Stinking Rose" around the corner.

Some of the best food I've had anywhere. Order Tapas rather than main dishes. Let me know and I'll be more than happy to join you there - it helps to get more different kinds of tapas

(on Sansome, 1/2 block off Broadway)

Has excelent house-smoked ham. I invariably order a dish of/containing they ssmoked pork, such as "Marty's Special." Also right up there: Hot & Sour Beef, the Cold Eggplant salad.

Open since 1965. Standard Mexican fare along with Yucatecan specialties. Absolutely the best Margaritas north of the border (except my house) made with fresh lime & house-made Controy, & an extensive selection of premium tequilas.
Great red & green salsas served standard with meal, but when you ask for it you can get fresh salsa de habanero (roasted chile, lime juice, salt, little grated carrot) or even a whole, roasted hab in a little dish!!
Family run joint...Tommy, mama @ the register, son's in bar & kitchen, new grandbaby being shown off.
Oh, also habanero infused tequila.

Have Tabasco Habanero. The price at the Camden location is $4.25 for the 5 oz bottle. I'm just a happy customer. Do want to give them a `thumbs up' recommendation. They're one of the few places where you can get _real_ slow smoked B.B.Q. here in Silicon Valley.
