Michelangelo Café

Sunday, June 04, 2006
I had a bad experience in college where I was in a dark club and someone passed to me what I thought was a bowl of grapes… but they were olives and I was jolted so badly by the discontinuity of tastes that I was scarred for many years. It was at Michelangelo Café that my taste buds spontaneously opened up to their fantastic olives. From that moment on olives have been amongst my favorite foods. So, I'm endeared to this place, and the rest of the food here too. I wish they didn't bring that bowl of gummy bears at the end of the meal (olives are ok, but I'm not willing to open up to gummies quite yet). In terms of what to order, I've always had great success with the fish, especially whatever they have special. This is one of the few places I take guests to give them the authentic North Beach experience.
