This week, we cruise down to Daly City for breakfast for dinner at Tselogs, where the Sisigsilog, a sizzling platter of savory chicken, a fried egg and garlic rice, is a fan-favorite. Then we’re off to San Francisco's Mission District for Beef Tartare at Ernest, a twist on the steakhouse staple that’s topped with ikura and served with sushi rice and nori. Finally, we land in Pacific Heights for made-to-order Korean comfort food at Zazang Korean Noodles, where we dig into Jajangmyeon, a handmade black bean noodle dish.

This week's special guests include Golden State Warriors superfan Robin Schreiber, the famed Dance Cam Mom, TikTok creator Nick Cho — Your Korean Dad — and local foodie and social worker Aisha Nelson.

Host Leslie Sbrocco joins social worker Aisha Nelson, Golden State Warriors superfan and Dance Cam Mom Robin Schreiber, and TikTok creator Nick Cho — Your Korean Dad — from Mersea Restaurant on Treasure Island.
