Typical San Francisco style cooking. Fresh, seasonal, local, mostly organic. Barely any dressing on the salads, since the fresh sweetness in the greens speak for themselves. This was yet another one of those 48hour weekend trips to San Francisco - and recently my approach has been to treat my work "base" as any other stay-cation city I frequent. Sounds so oxy-moronic I know, but it certainly is true.
Everything is very fresh and sourced locally. A minimum requirement for any restaurantto survive in San Francisco. The cooking style here is just clean.
I was not too satisfied with their wine list, but I guess, the food is simple and clean as was their accompanying wine list. Alright, then.
Update: lundi 30 mai 2011
I have just been informed by a fellow wine enthusiast friend that Heirloom Cafe has a Cellar List for wine that can be requested. Also, they give 60% off corkage fee for older vintages. Thanks TJ!

Love sitting upfront and personal with the chefs, watching them make the magic that feeds our souls!

Little gem lettuces, citrus, avocado, fresh herbs. My San Francisco!

Watching the action....
