Kim Thanh

607 Geary St
(between Jones St & Leavenworth St)
San Francisco, CA 94102

Occasion: Tony's Bday Dinner!


Geoduck Sashimi
Yum! If you can get past the fishy taste and the cartilidge like texture of this creature from the sea, you'll definitely know how to enjoy it. It tasted really fresh. What's good about a lot of seafood is that it has it's own natural sweet flavor. We don't really have to season it much, maybe just squeeze some lemon juice over it and its ready to eat!

Geoduck Soup
With the leftover geoduck, they made it into a geoduck with veggie soup. Perfect for the cold weather and very refreshing.
Prawns
These suckers were huge. Love its natural sweetness. Dipped it in some soysauce with chopped green onions dip. Tasty and juicy. YUM

Sauteed Crab
This restaurant is known for their seafood. The first few dishes did not disappoint and this one didn't either. With about 10 people per table there just wasn't enough of this to go around. Good thing not everyone likes crab. It was DELICIOUS!
Roasted Chicken
Meat was nice and tender, not too dry just the way I like it. The skin was roasted to perfection, nice golden brown and krispy. I don't think I ended up eating the skin, since taking off skin has just become a habit of mine.

Fried Rice
Nothing all that special. I think it just served as a filler for our stomachs. From what I recall, they skimped out on the meat. O well.

Chinese Brocolli with Oyster sauce
My favorite vegetable. I love the crunchiness of the stems and the full leaves. Delicious.
Walnut Prawns
Did my taste buds some good. Very tasty. You just know when its good or bad. Trust me, it's good here! I also loved how the walnuts were not burnt or too sweet. Perfect!
Beef Cubes
So good and so full of flavor. I don't know what they used to marinate it, but it was delicious. I'm not even usually a meat person, but I caught myself going for seconds and thirds.
Snow Pea Shoots Stirfried with minced garlic
Always a favorite for the Chinese. It was alright. From what I can remember, the vegetable was a bit old, which made it hard to chew and swallow.
Sweet and Sour Pork
I really feel as though this dish caters to white people and ABC's (which I totally am). I think I like the more authentic Chinese dishes.

Fried Banana with Ice Cream
Delicious! I've had really bad fried banana before, but this one was good. I loved the balance of hot and cold. Complimented each other very well. Yummay!
