I don’t know if that technically still counts as touristy lol, but some of the food in San Francisco is just fantastic, especially Asian foods in the region. I highly recommend Palette Tea House if you enjoy Dim Sum (small plates of things like dumplings, noodles, etc. that you can order at will). Amazing service and food, also near the water and in Ghirardelli Square. I also enjoy Sutter Pub, really cute decor and restaurant front, great food, local beer. The Irish Bank is a really great tavern actually owned by an Irish man lol, great fish and chips. Posh Bagel and Home Coffee are right between the entrance to Chinatown and FiDi, my favorite morning spots when I’m in San Fran.

my fav place in the city right now. A completely non-alcoholic bar + cafe that also feels unpretentious (idk ive been to some non-alc shops that are just sooo pristine/sterile/stuffy). I thank the surfer vibes for the good atmosphere. 🤙🏻
VERY busy during the weekends, I recommend visiting during the week.
A great cocktail (mocktail?) list, they have thc/cbd and kava drinks as well, plus good food and coffee! They will make you custom drinks.
People are friendly and chatty! I've been so comfortable going there and talking to people ~soberly~ :)

Oh, the lure of San Francisco… I always dreamed I would end up living there as an adult because my parents lived there when they were young and hot in the 90s. I visited a lot growing up and was always enchanted. Ended up going to Berkeley for school and by then the vibe in SF… was already off. Expensive and full of tech bros wearing backpacks at bars and increasingly soulless. The housing crisis is devastating and visible on every street you walk down. I went last October for work and it felt so haunted.
But if you must… 🖤 Scoma’s (fancy lunch in fisherman’s wharf, get the Crab Louie and a martini) 🖤 Tommy’s Joynt (no fuss meat sandwiches & cheap cocktails) 🖤 Vesuvio (perfect bar, iSpy vibes in terms of decor) 🖤 Tommasso’s (best italian. Get the chilled broccoli and some sort of pizza with arugula on it) 🖤 Swensen’s (my favorite ice cream in the world. I miss it and dream of it. Get sticky chewy chocolate or banana) 🖤 House of Nanking (go when you’re starving for Hot Food! you may have to wait a little but it won’t be that long. Get the green beans and if they have congee, by god get that. Also ask for chili oil) 🖤 The East Bay!! (Go to Berkeley and Oakland. They’re better lol)

I’m trying to do this more in life and feel like it’s helping me get ahead. There’s nothing to lose. Sing that song at karaoke. Wear those pants you’re not sure about. Ask the clarifying question.
