Neighborhoods
Five minute walk from the house, the Great Highway is closed to cars on weekends now & is full of bicyclists and walkers and kids, and often closed during the weekdays too because of coastal erosion. One of my favorite places to have a quiet stroll.

Ritzy and a little high end, but a wonderful little secret shopping district in San Francisco, with a couple great brunch spots. Super close to Japantown.

Cute and small but some of the best little shops in San Francisco. No curry house is bad, and it boasts at least two of SF's best ramen spots as well as my favorite treat night sushi spot (An Sushi - reservations required, omakase only).

Dive Bar
Greatest little honky-tonk dive bar in SF. Catch a four piece rockabilly band here on a Sunday (but check the website listings first), have a cold Trumer, watch the game or talk to a true local. My partner & my date night.
