"At State Bird Provisions, food moves around on dim sum-style carts and trays inside of a rainbow-colored dining room—this is a night that’s all about pointing to whatever seasonally changing small plate looks good. The answer here is everything, from the crispy corn mochi balls and oysters leveled up with tangy kohlrabi kraut and sesame seeds to the pork belly “salad” that’s actually about 75% meat. Get here for birthdays and date nights, or any time you want to dive into a spread of the most exciting dishes in SF. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
