I have tried these guys' food and it's the real thing.

Me, being from Spain I have tried different Spanish restaurants in San Francisco and none of them had the taste of the real Spanish food.

A couple of weeks ago Tip Top Tapas were serving their food at the Dock's Clock Bar in Mission St. I think it's an ongoing thing, every Sunday evening you can find them there. They put the food trays at the end of the bar so you can pick anything you want to.

I tried the Empanada and the Tortilla de Patatas and they were good good good.

If you want to try good home made Spanish Food, you have to try Tip Top Tapas!!

This market offers high end products at a premium price. They have a good and large assortment of medium to expensive wines. The lady who works there is very nice and flirty sometimes (she openly adimts it)

While it's impressive that this creme brulee came from a food cart, the very nature of food cart preparation makes this specialty dessert a bit... well... not so special.

Foil mini-pie pans replace ramekins, but these are deeper than they are wide, minimizing the surface area of the crunchy top of the creme brulee (the best part, obviously).

Speaking of the crunchy top...he does this at the time of order, which isn't ideal, but there's probably no way around it. The best way to get a nice hard crust on a creme brulee is to totally blaze the top with reckless abandon and no concern for the custard underneath and then chill it for about 45 minutes. Unfortunately that 45 minute deadline is a hard one since the sugar will start to soften after an hour. In order to accomplish this he'd have to be completely accurate in his assessment of demand, and would undoubtedly waste a lot of creme brulee.

Since he has to rush the process, there's not much of a hard shell, and it's decidedly less satisfying to crack with a plastic spoon. The custard itself tasted lovely, however...I ordered the Lavender and it had a subtle floral overtone without being overpowering.

I'll give the Creme Brulee Cart credit for pushing the bounds of food cart cuisine, but I'll stick with ordering this dessert at a restaurant.

Here's an action shot and a photo of my creme brulee...please note that the double macchiato was made by Ritual Roasters :d

I picked up a Crispy Chicken Salad for dinner and it was massive. I couldn't finish it, the taste was good but it lacked some dressing(easily fixable in my next visit) . I payed $12 for it, first I thought that was excessive but when I got home and saw the dimensions of the container I thought it was a fair price.

The waitress and the cook were very friendly and talkative, that will make me go back there to try their steaks.

I have no picture of the huge Crispy Chicken Salad, but I will post a picture of their cheese steak sandwich.

This place is somehow creepy and dirty but that doesn't to keep me away from having the best Quesadillas in San Francisco. The size of the Super Suiza Quesailla is huge and the stuffing is good and abundant.

El Farolito is very conveniently located in 24 th and Mission, right by the BART station. It opens until
3 am, making it the best place to grab food before going back home after a night out. The crowd it tough sometimes!

This is the Carnitas Quesadilla, which is the least recommended but still pretty good:
