Perhaps more than any other season, the apex of summer is about finding the very best in seasonal ingredients, from basil to tomatoes to stone fruit to … mussels?
Washington mussels can be found at the following San Francisco dining establishments, among others: Kuleto’s, Foreign Cinema and Anchor Oyster Bar.
Large, succulent and pristine, without a trace of muddy-bottom flavor, they are superlative. A wonderful spring plays off your teeth when you bite down; there’s no mush anywhere. Most important though, is the clean taste - there is not a trace of dirty guts in any mussel I’ve slurped from Washington state. You just get firm but tender muscle.
