It??s that time of year when we look forward to those warm nights, perfect for an outside dinner.

On our San Francisco Food Tour of North Beach\Little Italy and Chinatown, it??s a great time of year to enjoy the outdoor cafes at night. It??s warm enough to enjoy the evening accompanied by some great food and wine . In the daytime , on our San Francisco Food Tours, it??s definitely short sleeve weather. The good news is that it never gets too hot, if gets hot for very long, it usually pulls the fog in off the ocean and cools the city down. The result is that most of us here dress in layers, you never know when we can go from warm to cool. Not too cool fortunately, we don??t get snow and it does not get much below fifty degrees The good news is that also the perfect time to enjoy ice cream. For me, there??s something about making my own ice cream. I get to pick the flavors, choose the ingredients and then make my favorite. It used to be hard to do. Nowadays, I just use the ice attachment on my mixture and it??s pretty simple to make my own. The good news is that still tastes good. I??m not sure if tastes better than what I can go out for because it does, or just because food that you make on your own for some reason always seem to taste better. Either way, its?? the perfect thing to enjoy on these warm nights.
