We spent 4th of July weekend in San Francisco. We love to walk all over this city – hills included – to work up a thirst and an appetite. There’s no shortage of great neighborhood places to eat – from long-time favorites to new-to-us discoveries.
Mr. Jones’s favorite: A slice of meat pie at Henry’s Hunan Restaurant on Sansome Street between between Broadway & Vallejo near Levi’s Plaza.
Crunchy bruschetta washed down with a glass or two of Sangiovese at Sodini’s in North Beach. We love sitting at the bar – tended by either Mark or Anna.
The Ferry Building offers a cornucopia of food choices. After browsing all of the bottle selections, we enjoyed a glass of champagne and the cheese plate at the Ferry Plaza Wine Merchant.
A new discovery in the Inner Richmond neighborhood on Balboa Street: Piroshkies at Cinderella’s Russian Bakery & Café. We loved the beef and the mushroom versions, plus the chocolate éclair.
At the recommendation of our waiter at the Hilton, we had a delicious Italian dinner at Allegro Romano on Jones St in Russian Hill.
And for a sweet treat, the original Swensen’s Ice Cream at the corner of Hyde and Union streets.
A nice way to end an evening is with an ice cold martini at the Pied Piper Bar at the Sheraton Palace Hotel on Market Street.
