Moving on from Mymy it was a quick trip up Nob Hill to Flour & Co that again saw me fraught with temptation and with owner Emily Day hard at work in the kitchen while her delightful staff promised me “everything” was delicious I quickly succumbed to my whims – a seven item order serving in part as a continuation of breakfast with the rest saved for dessert after lunch. All natural and largely locally purveyed it was with a duo of items that my tasting began and although the toasty sandwich of housemade jam on fresh baked bread with a touch of cream cheese was lovely the carrot cake set a new standard – its moist crumb rife spice and so well packed with nuts, carrots, and dried fruit that one wondered if there was any filler or flour at all. Moving on to more after a Father’s Day lunch with friends at R&G it was with toothsome and herbaceous cornbread that I started and with the savory option showing equally impressive as prior items it was back to sweets I turned, the crisply rimmed cookies giving way to tender centers while toasty sugared pecans crowned dense coffee-cake and an very sticky brioche swirl.

RECOMMENDED: Carrot Cake, Cornbread, French Toast Sandwich.

AVOID: While nothing was even remotely subpar bad there are simply better cookies and sticky buns to be had in the San Francisco when there is so much else to explore at Flour & Co.

TIP: Featuring Free Wi-Fi and several prepped-to-order selections with seating for no more than twenty an early arrival or off-peak visit is recommended for those desiring to dine-in.
