This is a streeeetch, but we ate at a restaurant in SF a few years ago and it was so wonderful. I've since lost the business card and can't for the life of me remember the name. They had the best scallop dish I have ever had in my life! I think it may have been a schezuan restaurant (it was definetely asian).
Anyhow, we stayed on Nob Hill and the resturant was within walking distance, towards the italian section (I think). It had a variety of different restaurants around it (none asian other than it), but it was kind of a hole in the wall from the outside but nice inside and the service was awesome. Anyhow, if anyone can help me narrow down this crazy dream I have of finding the placa again, I'd be beside myself with delight! Thank you!!!
