Drinks & Nightlife

Our favorite historical Saloon - apparently the neighborhood got it's name from this establishment (and not the other way around). Fantastic cocktails...puts the "happy" in our "happy hour!"

This tiny coffee shop is right next to the CalTrain Station. They are famous for their "Nutella latte" (not high-brow coffee, but delicious!) They also have great panini at lunchtime.

This is the best ice cream store in San Francisco! (It rivals Humphry Slocombe and Bi-Rite). My fave flavor is black sesame (sweet and salty) but they change often. Hours limited (Tues - Sun 12-6).

In South America I fell in love with yucca fries and plantains - Gilberth's Latin fusion cuisine has these delicacies and more. I love their brussels sprouts, ceviche, & sangria. Also great for lunch.

Only open for lunch - this place has "real deal" lasagna. The proprietors are Italian and proudly make all their own pastas and sauces the old-school way. The "verdure" with pesto is my favorite!

Soul Food that is old-school (not a trendy re-invention of soul food). They have great booths and bar seating, good for a casual lunch or dinner. The fried chicken is my fave!

Entertainment & Activities

Dogpatch Boulders is the largest "bouldering" gym in the USA! For the uninitiated - "bouldering" is rock climbing without harnesses. But the floors are well padded and they have easy intro classes.

This Russian Banya is about a 6 or 7 minute drive (or taxi ride) away. Not for the faint of heart, it has fantastic steam baths and saunas. If you go, drop by the cafe for a bowl of borscht.

Arts & Culture

I enjoy bite-sized museums that don't take a full day to traverse. This museum has just a couple of well-curated galleries - a 30-minute delight. Exhibits rotate. And the museum store is fabulous.
