MICHAEL MINA BRINGS BACK THE TRIOS MENU 

Sure, you've heard Michael Mina's name touted everywhere from San Francisco to Santa Clara, but if you still haven't stopped into his flagship restaurant on California Street, then you are missing out on a divine dining experience. Here's the perfect opportunity: the chef just brought back the Trios Menu, a delicious prix fixe menu that allows you to try one signature, seasonal ingredient cooked three very different ways at once. While the menu can be a little overwhelming (you'll definitely want to eat it ALL), here's what we recommend: heirloom tomatoes to start, baby pig as the entree, and the dessert trio to round out the perfect meal. Plus wine pairings, duh. // 252 California St, San Francisco, michaelmina.net
