workin' The Corner

My newest discovery is a restaurant called The Corner - located in the Mission district, right on 18th and Mission.  The owners of a restaurant two doors down called Weird Fish (they only serve fish for all you Pescetarians)- opened a wine bar that serves a specific but deliciously unique menu that ranges from items like slow cooked pork shank w poached egg to smoked butterfish and beef tongue.  They even serve Barbecue Pigs’ Feet & Deviled Egg Salad 5.00$ as an appetizer (OK! "how you gonna serve pigs feet w no collard greens?!" OK! Precious) The wine list is impressive, the menu is decently priced, and the atmosphere is warm yet cozy.  A perfect place for a first date or to meet my friend Conor from Ireland for dinner.






the Meat Plate - Lomo ((cured pork loin))
Bresaola ((air dried beef))
Speck ((cold-smoked pork))
with mustard, pickles, turkish dates, hard cooked egg & toast
& Roasted Cauliflower, Black-eyed Peas, Fregola


















my friend Alex showed up and joined us which was a nice surprise



























































I am new to remembering to document my food before we eat - However, a slightly mangled entree that came out much prettier than this.  

Roasted young chicken 12.75$ potato purée, escarole, baby carrots, prunes & saba


















Here is an exterior daytime shot of the restaurant I found online
