Great dinner spot for a group or a date.. located on Chestnut literally 4 or 5 blocks from my front door. The scene is romantic, and they have amazing wine experts that can help you pair your wine and food.

Make your reservations as far in advance as possible... this is one of the finer restaurants in SF, and requires reservations (way in advance) and a credit card with high limits. :) This place is amazing.

Drinks & Nightlife
Great spot! I've been a patron for over 20 years. If you stay in my home, ask my about the Phu Special before you visit Perry's. Good brunch, and great place to watch games with friends.

Sightseeing
Walk up to Fort Mason on any Sunday to find our local weekly farmer's market. Continue walking up to the Fort Mason park - don't forget your camera, you'll want to take pictures of the Bay and Golden Gate bridge. If you are up for it, continue down the path to Ghirardelli Square and Fisherman's Wharf.

Must see... it's 3 or 4 blocks from my house, so definitely motivate after a morning coffee, or check it out during a sunset. You'll find me with a book reading in the morning sun with a cup of coffee there most Sundays.

A big park with a beach and hiking trails through the Presidio... and outstanding views of the Golden Gate Bridge. One of my best friends proposed to his wife out here, and I help set up the scene for him in a grassy knoll out near the pier... on the right day, could be one of the best picnic spots ever.

Take a ferry to Angel Island and hike it! If you are the adventurous type, make your way down to Fisherman's wharf for a ferry boat to Angel Island; Once on the island, trailheads are easy to find, and the hike will take you all the way around the island with breathtaking views. If you're even more adventurous, take a picnic with you, and make your way down to the south east beach just past quarry point. You're likely to find yourself on a beach by yourself, with the mountain blocking the wind, and the sun warming the sand. Great spot for a day date. :)
