Good Seafood Place (oysters a must) near public transportation.
Bart to the Embarcadero and walk to the Ferry Building. Hog Island for oysters and the rest of the building for anything else. It ain't elegant but it should be fun.
Jewish food in the Bay Area?
In the words of the immortal and paradoxically soon to be dead T Soprano "Fa getta bout it".

Sorry Pistou, back to the ophthalmologist. That small print is getting is getting harder and harder to read but at least I can still see colors.

"There is a small chinese restaurant in the peppermint plaza in El Cerrito just a few doors down from Ba Le (good bahn mi) that has egg foo yung." One large omelet. Sorry no name. More research since first posting.

900 Grayson Breakfast/Brunch recs
That is what the man said. I did not ask for an ETA.
Road trip from Smithsburg, MD to Montoursville, PA
Montoursville misspelled according to google maps. I'm sure Pennsylvanians would know that but being in Berkeley I had to look it up in case my PA family was nearby and could help. Too far.

I went one morning too early and the waffle batter was not ready. Sort of like my post on
Guiness from the tap. My breakfast was good with eggs over very hard, toast and an excellent hash brown patty. The bacon was ok but not ethereal even with the source. I guess I'm not a bacon sort of guy. Call before to check you go so you will know when chicken and waffles are available.
NBA Finals AND Great Food?
If traveling by foot overdress. It gets cold in SF in the evenings.
Dried porcini cheaper?
I'm sure they are cheaper in PA but this was may source for my last batch.

Need place to eat & watch NBA Finals
Try them at 415 974 0905. Perhaps if you try reservations they can tell you if those things pictured above their bar are TVs that you can watch a game on.I think Tim Duncan is great but, go Fort Wayne!
Belden Alley?
Restaurants in Belden Place keep evolving. Is this helpful?

In-N-Out Burger near SFO
I was wrong in this post. Get these folks out of the airport and across the bridge.
I was only making fun of robert's question about a full sushi restaurant at 9AM. With
the traffic to and from Japan and the time difference it might really make sense.

No Maria I mean the Bridge down the hill from the Waldo Tunnel that spans
the water between Marin City and the Strawberry shopping center.

Napa trip
That is it. Megababedeluxe left out the detail that they went to Berkeley. Berkeley and Napa the city are about 40 miles apart. Napa Valley is further and is different cities; Yountville, St Helena and Calistoga etc. Locals tend to lump them as Napa Valley. As in
I'm going to the French Laundry in Napa .
In-N-Out Burger near SFO
Do not dawdle south of the Golden Gate. Scoot before the afternoon traffic buildup
and following jungleboy's route it is 25 miles and about 35 minutes to INO Mill
Valley. It's the exit right after the Richardson Bay Bridge. Then Melanie's route to
Napa. You didn't specify. Is it the City of Napa or just Napa Valley.

You could try sushi at the international terminal while you are waiting for them to unlose you luggage.

recs for Kensington Bistro
Courtesy of liujenny recently:
My boyfriend took me to the Kensington Bistro today for brunch, such a bright, pretty and cozy space! We ordered the famous "The Number Nine" as well as a Fresh Strawberry Pancakes that's on the brunch specials menu. As everyone says, the Number Nine is outstanding... crispy potato pancake on the bottom with just the right amount of crunchy bacon shreds topped with creamy hollandaise sauce and eggs on top. The pancakes were fluffy and good, but they are just pancakes with sliced strawberries on top. Both of these came with a small cup of fresh fruits. Overall, a very nice neighborhood restaurant with very friendly service.

Healdsburg help, please
Years ago I took my son to the Madrona Manor. I enjoyed my meal but you could use an updated review. My boy asked to order from the prie fixe menu and I acquiesced on the condition that he, being veggie averse, eat everything even if it was red, green or purple. The first course was white asparagus apparently not covered in the oral agreement.
They substituted carpaccio.
Chinese/Asian splurge
Koi Palace is difficult to get to by public transit and probably prohibitive by cab.
Empress of China is 1/2 mile and not an unpleasant walk from Union Sq. Tommy Toys
is 1 mile.Based on a quick net search the fare to 365 Gellert, Daly City for Koi Palace a distance of 11.5 miles is about $27. Bart to Daly City and a cab is beyond my capabilities without more data, size of party. Cab fare $2.85 first 1/5 mile, 45cents each additional.
Sushi San Francisco
Akiko's Sushi Bar, 542 Mason. Near by. Has good reviews. No boats. Small. Perhaps someone can fill in the latest word on quality or go by reviews. I went down the sushi road with my son. He developed a habit of never ordering anything but the most expensive thing on the menu. Good luck.
Looking for a great celebration restaurant in the city
Too many Als in this thread. Not Capone but still Italian in Locke Ca.
