if you're visiting the Castro area, they've got GREAT kati rolls. I always stop by here to pick up my road trip food...

Some of the most inventive drinks in the city. Also a great place to eat--the pizza is delicious.

Great martinis.

You must go here. I have been searching for a French bakery like this in LA and have been unsuccessful. The almond croissants and quiches are especially incredible.

Apparently they have a baking school!

Great restaurant

Another great drinking establishment. The Mai Tai's are lethal. Be warned.

Cool, Chinese dive bar. Occasionally has shows in the basement. They're known for their mai tais that'll knock you out, but I personally find them too sweet. Everything else, though -- strong pours ;)

"Bar, I think?"

Good to hear! The baristas are super cool, too, and know how to make a mean cup of coffee :)

There are enough outlets for me! I got here early though. Great place to work!

Fantastic coffee and so many other busy bees around you! Beware of the lack of outlets though, there's only one table with outlets -- the communal one with the power strip in the back of the cafe.

It's impossible to go here without leaving with the cookbook in hand. A must visit.

When we went here, we arrived 30 minutes prior to opening and there was quite a long line; I think we waited almost 45 minutes. If you're into baked goods and pastries, it's worth the wait. I liked their banana cream pie but it's big!

Haven't been here yet, but hear great things about it. Sort of like a Disneyland for science. It's highly interactive and fun with more than one person, so it's perfect for you and your partner!

They also have the amazing Bliss Spa on the 4th Floor.

They have an amazing doggie package that make you feel right at home with treats and toys and a snuggly bed.

Boo, Isn't the SF W fabulous?!

I know everyone is saying you should stay at the Vitale, but I'm partial to the St. Regis. Or see other comment on Cavallo Pt. (heaven)

Sloane will dig all the sights and sounds, even at her age. We got Tatum an awesome hat there that she plays with to this day. Makes for great pics too.

Walk to chinatown in the in the morning

On any night, there's always a line! So whoever gets there first should definitely put their name on the list because the wait can be anywhere from half an hour to two hours. Skip the sushi. Order the ramen, of which all the choices are fantastic. I love their ankimo, too!
