Nothing better than a chocolate-coconut raised to kick off a session at the Alemany Flea Market with Bloughnut collaborator and Just Fine conspirator Matt W. Open 24 hours for breakfast-lunch-dinner and snacks in between, the Silver Crest fries up their own doughnuts daily! Ding dong!
This specimen was springy and coconuty. It was so delectable I was compelled to eat it with a fork.
Every time I go in there, this place feels a little closer to shutting their doors for good. But I hear that has been the case for a while now. Give it a try, if not only for the doughnuts for the chicken fried steak and the Greek music.
Bloughnut collaborator Kevin B. tells the story of Chester D., original Louisiana bluesman, who used to ride his horse to the Silver Crest in the 1940s. Kevin B. met him much later. Chester D. was a welder in the Hunters Point Naval Shipyards who lost part of his hand in a shotgun accident. He learned to play guitar lefty--the best place to catch him was at the 24th Street BART station. Come back and visit for a little music featuring Chester D. and Brian "The Fisherman."
