Overheard on the San Francisco Bay Area Board

"It's a slow-cooked delicious thick square of pork belly served in a little jar. Maybe 3'' x 3'' x 1.5''. It's super-fatty and delicious, and stands up well to the ones I've had in Shanghai itself. And it's four bucks! It's small enough that one person can have it alone without feeling silly and bloated afterwards." – David Farris on the dongpo rou at Bund Shanghai

"This is a wonderful little shop that in addition to its menu of soups, salads, sandwiches and pasta sells wine, cheese and artisan groceries. ... [The] squash pear soup is the only dish I’ve ever awarded an A+ [and] the frittata is also one of the best I’ve had." – rworange on The Epicurean Connection in Sonoma

"Many places make naan too thick so that it's spongy. Ajanta makes it thinner with a nice exterior that's slightly flaky. ... [The] Bay Area has many Indian restaurants to choose from but I've never found anything to compare with Ajanta. The prices are very reasonable and it's a lovely room to dine in. The staff is experienced and I've never felt rushed." – Andrew H on Ajanta in Berkeley
