Brown Sugar Kitchen

THIS LOCATION HAS CLOSED! For those that didn't have the opportunity to sample the food served by BSK, the flagship restaurant of Ms. Holland is located in Oakland and a truly unique dining experience and the signature hospitality that I've come to love and respect. To the staff @ SF ..... you were great! Please remember that SF is a hard market simply because to the sheer volume and varieties of places to eat. It has taken several 18 years and longer to get established. Please, don't give up or give in. Just remember that is not just about bringing your "A" game ..... For me, 'Dog Patch' is a more hospitable area of the city ..... and, oh yeah, new home to the Warriors! My hope is that BSK will partner with travel agencies and bundles dining packages with travel packages. Did I actually just put a well kept secret out there, for gratis? I'll CONTINUE to make my 11 mile trip to The Town for BSK cuz you keep it real! CJ

# Fried Chicken and a Waffle. Get it. That's all you need to know. This is the best fried chicken in San Francisco right now. The precision in which they mix the tarragon, paprika, onion powder, cayenne and the other dozen ingredients is world renowned. Michelin, especially in the United States, oddly refuses to give a star to quick service restaurants for the most part. Just because a place only has plastic forks doesn't mean it's not the best meal you that you can buy for any price. This is less than $13 for two pieces of heaven.

Fantastic addition to the Ferry Building. Everything is just perfect. The chicken is juicy and the waffles and light and crispy. If I was closer i'd come here for some of my lunches. lol. Maybe I should run here and then come back, then I could justify chicken and waffles. Happy to have Brown Sugar on this side of the bay :D

Brown Sugar Kitchen Oakland is insanely good. The waffles are the perfect blend of light, flaky and crispy. The chicken is tender with a savory, crisp fried crust. Oakland BSK has the best chicken and the best waffles on earth in my humble opinion. Sadly, the waffles at the ferry building are soggy. The chicken is still perfect though, maybe even better. I don’t know if the soggy waffles at The Ferry Building is because they come in a box and get sweaty before you get them to the table or the waffle pan is not hot enough or the fog from the bay makes them wet: I wish they were as perfect as the ones in Oakland. At least there is only a fraction of the wait at the Ferry Building.
