Foreign Cinema is one of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco. I am fortunate my wonderful man-friend took me there for our year anniversary, and we stuffed ourselves full of some of the best food I've had. But seriously, oh my god, the food is fantastic. If the food wasn't enough, I love the decor and ambiance too. Inside the restaurant feels like you are in a beautiful home and the outside patio plays old black and white films projected on a wall all night. It's very chic, hip, and oh so Mission.
Insider tip: Make sure to make reservations early for a spot on the patio.
WHAT TO EAT:
Lavender baked goat cheese, chicory, strawberry-balsamic compote, toasts
