The Milky Way at BACAR

One of my favorite things to do with my girlfriends is to go have a glass of wine and share some dessert at a wine bar while we gush about the gossip of our lives...no matter what the current drama, a little bit of wine and sugar does just the trick!! (Fortunately, there are countless of swanky wine bars in San Francisco for just such an occassion!)

My friend and I picked Bacar, which is in SOMA ("South of Market, for those of you unfamiliar with the city). Bacar has a fantastic wine selection, good food, sometimes live jazz or piano, and a signature dessert that is AMAZING.

Their version of a Milky Way ($11): a chocolate fudge cake layer at the base, topped with malt ice cream and a thin disk of chocolate, which melts away as a warm bourbon caramel sauce is poured over it all right at the table! *YUM*
