The San Francisco Museum of Art is offering a delicious interpretation of the paintings it carries. At its rooftop restaurant, which is called Blue Bottle Coffee Bar, visitors will be able to enjoy the artwork they viewed with their mouths in addition to their eyes. It boasts an extensive and creative menu of art-inspired food that range from Frida Kahlo Mexican Wedding Cookies to Rosana Castrillo Díaz Panna Cotta and Jeff Koons White Hot Chocolate.
The latest dishes to be included at the San Francisco Museum of Art are Rothko Toast and Jams, Hirst Cake, Judd Tomato Soup as well as Albers Crackers and Cheese. If the museum isn't careful, people might start comings solely for the food rather than the art.
