Food Scene

Everything on the menu is solid italian food - and the pizzas are oven baked; you basically can't go wrong with any pizza you pick. Also - the bar is great to watch a game and have dinner!

Rocco's is a great straight forward, Italian-American diner where you can find solid food, including breakfast. Nothing mind blowing, but definitely solid.

One of the most famous coffee shops in the city, and definitely the neighbourhood. You'll find the coffee shop is basically a massive building where they roast and distribute their coffee. It is now a flagship store with any more franchises around the Bay.

Everything Else

Every Thursday and Saturaday, the Farmers market is open from 8 am to around 1-2 pm in the afternoon. The Ferry building is an iconic, pre-earthquake building that ties the whole city together.

Sausalito is a fantastic place to visit for the day - you can get there by ferry, bicycle or drive. It's a small boutique city, with gorgeous views of San Francisco. If you want to rent a bicycle - let me know, and I can recommend several places. Ferries run from the "Ferry Building" in San Francisco to Sausalito.

Arts & Culture

I wouldn't call this a museum per-say, it's contains two very cool things: 1 - A living Borneo Rainforest, with a lower level that is probably one of the best aquatic areas in North America 2 - Digital Planetarium, and one of the worlds largest. On Thursday nights, they turn the academy into a nightlife with drinks, djs and mingling.
