What is your favorite eatery in #SSF? Thanks to William Shon for this share! "South San Francisco, California is one of our favorite towns for food. The cuis...ine is so fresh and nosh-worthy, not to mention nourishing and somewhat robust. Yet to this day, too many furious critics have not given skilled culinarians in South San Francisco, California a fair chance. The skeptics will all be proven wrong once they see the hotness on Facebook. Californians who vote with their tastebuds have elected South San Francisco, California as a legit, leading restaurant town. Firstly, the palatable temples of feasting can get the job done for happy hour with colleagues from work. Humans craft the edibles by hand here but girls and boys don’t have to engage with them and hear their irregular stories if you are introverted. A handful on this list have had the same menus and hot dogs, wraps and milk shakes for decades. Others keep changing their menus by adding apples or kiwis. And lastly, there are those with hidden menus you didn’t know existed. The following select bistros and cafes have the choices you need to eat really well and absolutely enjoy the best of South San Francisco, California. Be happy. It can be deviant yet successful to eat like a horse this New Year’s Eve."

When the Michelin penned letter arrived at Flavas Jamaican Grill last fall, owner Leroy Douglas was thrilled to realize his restaurant had earned this prestigious ranking. "I wasn't expecting it at all," Douglas said. "Michelin sends anonymous inspectors in, so I didn't even realize we were in the running! It was neat to see what they noticed about the restaurant to put into the guide, from our authentic food, to our service and even our music." Read more at: http://ssf.net/DocumentCenter/View/12168

We are excited to announce that Flavas Jamaican Grill is a 2016 Michelin recommended restaurant! We are grateful for this honor and thank all our customers for their loyalty over the past one and a half years. "South San Francisco has never been a restaurant hot spot, but this rookie could be a sign of things to come. The secret is already out with local residents and Genentech employees, who fill the casual space for its good food, gracious service, and soundtrack of reggae... beats. Flavas is simply decorated with basic furnishings and ocean-themed art, but its appeal is right there in the name. Authentic dishes brim with herbs, garlic, and Scotch Bonnet peppers, like the smoky, boldly spiced jerk chicken with caramelized fried plantains; or the fork-tender curried goat stew with coconut milk and chilies. Don't forget to keep an eye out for the intriguing daily specials, which can include jerk shrimp and snapper, saltfish and ackee, and other island favorites. " See more

"My first experience with Jamaican food--and I can't imagine experiencing this anywhere else! We ordered 1 of every appetizer, along with side of plantains, rice and beans, festivals and a side of braised oxtails. Jerk chicken wings, baked mini chicken and beef patties, codfish fritters, jerk pork pieces, fried corn crusted shrimp. Have I mentioned dessert? Sweet potato pudding with rum raisin ice cream and Jamaican rum cake. Heaven on Earth!!!" Thank you Kathleen!(from tripadvisor.com)
