Out the what?

There's the Slanted Door and now Out The Door. How peculiar I find these names. Just like its sister restaurant, OTD is a Vietnamese fusion restaurant, with French influences. After taking a walk at the Golden Gate Park in the cold cold but beautiful day, we went for our lunch at OTD. I really liked the interior of this restaurant. Reminded me of my little dream of opening my own restaurant one day. It's a long restaurant, there are tables along the pine wood wall on the right and on the left it's the open kitchen with bar stools along the counters. The floor consists of granite tiles and they have marble/granite counter tops as tables. If you want, you can sit along the counter and watch them prepare the food while you eat, that is if you want to see how they handle your food. If not, I'm happy to be just sitting by the wall and enjoy my meal away from the kitchen. It is a really simple chic restaurant.

How many types of eggs have you tried? Sunny side up, scramble, over easy...but have you tried slow cooked egg? *chuckle* well it's just like poached eggs. We started the meal with some beignets and Vietnamese coffee, for our main, we ordered the slow cooked eggs, soft scrambled eggs and french toast. Ah, you'd say, why do we bother to eat out such simple meals?

Here's the catch:

Slow cooked eggs come with niman ranch brisket, caramelized onions and crispy potatoes. Soft scrambled eggs come with dungeness crab, crispy creamer potatoes, gribiche, and chives. Mixed berry french toasts come with strawberries, blueberries, mint, lemon creme fraiche, and maple syrup.

Now wouldn't you be enticed to check this place out? :)
