An eatery that only sells grilled cheese sandwiches. Brilliant concept. Why didn’t I think of that? Food & Wine calls AGCK one of the Best U.S. Restaurant Openings of 2010 and I agree!
This was the first stop on my mega birthday weekend in SF. We rolled up on Friday (11/12/10) at noon and it was packed, but we scored a parking spot right in front….I took it as a sign…
We ordered:
Moscone sandwich (fresh mozzarella, fontina, roasted tomatoes, basil-lavender pesto, olive tapenade) + tomato soup
Mousetrap sandwich (Tillamook sharp cheddar, havarti, monterey jack, on artisan sourdough w/bacon) + tomato soup
Everything was wonderful and comes with an apple so you can feel like you ate something healthy when you really didn’t.
Tips:
Don’t attempt to eat the croutons on their own like I did. They are super peppery.
The soup is best when you dunk your sando in it or with croutons because it’s like a tomato puree and is very acidic.
