Larkspur Adventure Part II

Today I ventured back to Larkspur! I seriously love that place. It was a good day for the farmer's market because the weather was nice and hot. There were quite a few people there today.

Anyways, today I ate at Namu Street Food stand. It's a Korean food stand that is at the Larkspur landing every Saturday during the farmer's market. They have a varying menu with different specials.  My favorites from the stand are the okonomiyaki (I think it would be a Korean take on it, seeing that it has kimchi in it) and the kimchi fried rice.

I always get the extra egg on top of the rice. I like how they cook the egg a lot. It's slightly crispy on the bottom and the yolk is still The rice isn't that spicy even though there is kimchi and the bacon and sausage add a nice flavor to the koshikari rice. 

The okonomiyaki was pretty good too. I had okonomiyaki while I was in Japan, but it was a different style. I always have problems remembering the difference between Kyoto and Hiroshima style okonomiyaki. This Korean version that I ate from Namu was the starchier one without the noodles. I like both versions though, so it wasn't a problem at all. I liked the flavor of the kimchi, the kewpi mayo, and the bonito flakes together.

Beside going to Namu's street stand I went to Miette (also located in the Larkspur landing) to pick up some French macarons. I absolutely love macarons and I look forward to trying Miette's. I usually like Bouchon's macarons from Yountville, but Yountville is kind of far. If Miette's macaron are good then maybe I don't have to take the long drive to Yountville every time I craving macarons. I picked up grapefruit, rose, and strawberry macarons from the shop today.

Next blog will probably have a review of the macarons. C:
