Golden Gate National Recreation Area chronicles 200 years of history, from Native American culture, Spanish Empire frontier, California Gold Rush, the evolution of American coastal fortifications, and the growth of urban San Francisco. Comprised of 19 separate ecosystems and home to a multitude of different plant and animal species, the varied landscape has hundreds of ways to recreate including horseback riding, ranger-led programs, bicycling, hiking, and running.
Food & Drink
After the Hike: Local Favorites
Cassava
I can't go more than a fortnight without the Meatballs. Also, if you haven't added the Friday night Pop-up dinners to your bucket list, well then you know what has to be done.
Seakor Polish Deli & European Foods
Great place to pickup a bag or two of frozen perogies and smoke-cooked sausages.
Han Il Kwan
SF Weekly's Best of Winner 2010 - Editorial Pick - BEST ONE-DISH FEAST: DOLSOT BIBIMBAP
Fiorella
I really enjoyed the Green, Eggs, and Ham Pizza. Great local Italian spot.
Pizzetta 211
Don't come here with more than 2 people. Tiny spot!
Kabuto
Beware the text on the Omakase menu. It says $65 (good for 2 ppl), but it actually means $65/person!
Halu
You'd be hard-pressed to find better okonomiyaki in the city. Throw in the Beatles decor, the offal-laden yakitori, and the friendly family vibe and the tiny Halu's a win. [Eater 38 Member]
Schubert's Bakery
Try a slice of the Princess Cake - authentic flavor!
Burma Superstar
Sharing borders with India, China, Laos and Thailand, Burmese cuisine is inevitably influenced by the spices, seasonings, ingredients, and cooking styles of its neighbors.
Mandalay
Go to Mandalay and order the Tea Leaf Salad.
Arsicault Bakery
Holy cow, if you like savory pastries, the ham and cheese croissant is no joke.
Noe Valley Bakery
Their crusty white loaf is hands-down the best bread available anywhere in SF...
Lucca Ravioli Company
This windowless shop is the secret trove of mozzarella, pasta, pesto and spices that your imaginary Sicilian grandmother left for you in her will
Lolinda
everything is amazing, but definitely don't miss the croquetas and the bone marrow.
Beretta
If you like Bon Iver, pizza and hipster chicks, you've found a home.
Arizmendi Bakery Panaderia & Pizzeria
One of the best slices in the city for only $2.50
Papalote Mexican Grill
Have some good ol' chips and salsa...it's #46 on 7x7's Big Eat SF 2010.
Taqueria El Farolito
7x7's Big Eat 2012 says the super carne asada burrito is delicious. Yum!
