Bidwell Street Bistro

The seafood bisque was YUMMY! It was so well balanced all the flavors danced in my mouth. The seafood, the broth, the seasonings; all delectable!
The sandwich was a grilled chicken breast with artichoke pesto, goat cheese and baby arugula on a very soft roll. I was sort of wishing for a firmer roll, but otherwise it was great. The artichoke pesto threw me for a minute because I was not aware of the different ways to make pesto. I always thought of pesto as being basil, garlic, pine nut and olive oil. I didn’t know there were other pestos! I like it.
This restaurant looks like it would be a little fancy shmancy for dinner, but for lunch we fit in fairly well. The dessert menu was pushed on us pretty hard. The waitress went on about how everything was freshly made in house, blah, blah, blah, but we skipped it as we were filled to just the right amount.
