The 2010 Big Eat SF: 100 Things to Try Before You Die
Fried chicken and waffles at Little Skillet
Welcome to the second annual Big Eat: a serious melting pot of flavors made up of timeless classics, off-the-beaten-path gems and a few – how shall we put it – experiences. Because restaurants in this town are always on the move, 40 of last year's picks have been replaced with memorable newcomers, as well as some oldies and goodies. There's just one caveat: You only have one year to get San Francisco in your belly.
• Think you can spot all 100 in the next year? Take the challenge -- for prizes and glory -- by joining our Big Eat 2010 Scavenger Hunt! (powered by our friends at Foodspotting).
• Or do you think we missed something? Add it to I can't believe it's not in The Big Eat 2010!

The author has written an excellent article. You have made your point and there is not much to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not argue with: No truth is universal, everything has its exception. Thanks for the info.

That fried chicken sure looks tasty, but not sure all that grease is good for the heart. I prefer to eat falafel when I'm on my Israel Tours rather than fried chicken, no matter the taste!

What better way to cancel out a 2 hour 4th of July morning workout than having a 3 piece Chicken & Waffles at Little Skillet!! One thing that I did notice about my order was that the box felt a lot heavier than the last time I had it.

Michael Jordan wore the Nike oxygen Jordan II through the 1986-1987 NBA season, and while quantity No. 23 is something but ordinary, mundane is precisely what these shoes are. The layout is amazingly conservative. The shoe by itself is typically dark and white, with only a hard of red-colored near to the heel. This shoe certainly could have benefited from escalating the broad variety of colours on it, especially red. Just by altering the laces to red-colored would have designed a massive difference. Even a giant Nike confirm mark could have designed this shoe so a good offer an exceptional offer greater than it is. This layout is notoriously simple, a tag that just doesn't suit MJ's actively playing style http://www.coolestchinaclothes.com
