Welcome, SB. Be aware that this is an open forum, and things sometimes
get a bit heated, if you'll pardon the pun. And sometimes, for no
reason you can discern, folks'll get rude. In general, with those two
caveats, folks here are just fine and a pleasure to converse with.

Enjoy,

Unless you can find a specialty baker, you're not going to find *good*

Alas, there is no more large producer of quality sourdough bread left

Hit your local Trader Joe's, sf, and look for a Super Sourdough Boule.
It's about the size of one of those round loaves used to make those
kitschy sourdough chowder bowls. But, don't use it for that. This is
some seriously good bread, as good as Columbo's used to be. I'm
certain it's true SF sourdough. Nothing else has that flavor. If
your local TJ's doesn't have it, tell them to get it. It's in their
warehouses and I had to get pushy when my local TJ's stopped stocking
it all of a sudden. It's even more important now that D-crab season
is on. You won't be disappointed. I gar-ON-tee!

I'm going to have to try that. I love sourdough also. I am
fairly satisfied with the Acme sour batard, but it's not quite
sour enough.

A pizzeria, one of the most famous just for the pizza. Traditional napolitan
pizza, with a tall ledge around.

That's because it's bunk! Acme, La Brea, Semifreddie's, etc, are
all pretender wanna-bes. They make the claims, but don't deliver.
Even Columbo's restaurant grade sourdough has lost it. TJ's SSB
puts the sour back in sourdough.

yuo're not a fan of Boudin Bakery? Every time we're in SF< we end up
there for chowder in bread bowls....I ordered my dad a gift box from
them for his birthday, he loves their sourdough so much.

Yes. It is on the corner of Cedar and San Pablo, in the little
"shopping" area that has Kermit Lynch on one end and Cafe Fanny in the
middle.

Boudin's is a special trip. I'm saying I was used to just picking up
a loaf at the grocery store anytime I wanted some (which was always).

TJ's isn't even once a week shopping for me. I pick up sourdough when
I go there though, nb... I'm saying there isn't a bakery left that
produces decent sourdough in the bulk needed to be available at the
same time in Safeway and Albertson's etc.

Hasn't been for a long time. Colomobo's still sells their big
sourdough rounds in the white paper sack that say's San Francisco
Fisherman's Wharf Sourdough, but it's hard to find. Last time I saw a
loaf was in Gene's a few years ago. But, that was their store grade
sourdough and it hasn't been any good for years. The last place I
bought real SF sourdough was from a local Tri-Valley chain called
Strizzi's, a nice little pasta place that carried Columbo's restaurant
grade sourdough. I'd walk downtown and buy one at least once a week.
The real deal ...San Francisco sourdough. But, when Columbo sold out
to the conglomerate that owns Hostess and a bunch of others, even the
restaurant grade bread went to Hell. Not only that, but they cut back
delivery to only 3 days a week. Imagine a bakery expecting customers
to serve day old bread a few days a week. Even Strizzi's said to Hell
with it and dumped Columbo's.

This turned the whole SFBA into a SF sourdough wasteland for about
seven or eight months, at least out here on the frontier. Finally I
stumbled across the SSB at TJ's and was saved.

One of my favorite "comfort" restaurants is serving sourdough that's
almost as good as it used to be. I think their bread comes from a
bakery in Santa Rosa.
