Bourbon & Branch

By Nicole | August 13, 2009 |

A fantastic experience, Bourbon & Branch is an old-style speakeasy. You actually need a password to get in! The drinks are expensive, but well worth it because they are liquid works of art. Plan ahead and get a reservation for the best drinks in SF.

Beach Blanket Babylon

By Nicole | May 17, 2009 |

Stage show – a musical with some crazy large hats. Best to buy tickets in advance, the seats fill up quickly. The show is quite funny and the jokes reflect current affairs with politics and actors. It’s a bit of a walk from BART or an easy cab ride.http://www.beachblanketbabylon.com/

North Beach / Coit Tower

By Nicole | May 17, 2009 |

A cute Italian neighborhood with good food. I enjoy walking around, stopping to have coffee here and desert there. The area offers many good restaurants, cafes, bakeries and bars. Here you’ll find Coit Tower, one of San Francisco’s most recognizable landmarks. It’s a long walk from BART, or you can drive there, but parking can…
