The San Fran Experience

We had such a great time and were able to cram quite a bit of activity into our short two day stay.  Mike took us to some of the coolest bars and best places to eat, although he said the food is amazing almost everywhere.

Every trip needs a theme song, this seemed to fit our mood and was stuck in my head the whole time.

Here are some pointers, tips and suggestions if you're thinking about taking a visit.
  • Tacolicious - we heard it was amazing, but it wasn't open when walked by and we were starving so we didn't want to wait.
  • Aub Zam Zam - cool, quiet dive bar. Perfect for a cocktail.  The boys had old fashions and I stuck to my vodka water (strong drinks).  The outside is turquoise and has a Moroccan feel to it. You just stumble upon it, they seem to enjoy their secrecy so there's no website. Address: 1633 Haight Street
  • Hobson's - fun feel. It was crowded for Halloween, but they have a wii upstairs you can play.
  • Squat & Gobble -  Amazing! They have all sorts of crepes, I had the Italian and Tyler ordered the Hawaiian.  It was so good.  Fresh ingredients, cheap prices, and great tasting grub. 
  • Beretta's - I can't describe the atmosphere accurately, cookie influence, but the food was awesome.  Meatballs are the bomb and the pizza is so good.
San Francisco is full of culture, energy and love.  The people are so laid back and if you have the energy to walk it’s a great place to see by foot. Take in a park or two and just sit down and people watch.  If I had more time and money I’d definitely be shopping for days.  They have the coolest shops on Haight street!!
