Waves crashing beneath the Golden Gate Bridge. This is an incredible backdrop to views of the Bay, Marin, the bridge and the waterfront. I think this view surpases walking across the bridge by a long shot and avoids the crowds.

Very close to the house. Great Chinese food, also good for takeout. Each of the half dozen Chinese restaurants in our neighborhood are very good and all have their own distinctive regional focus, although I couldn't tell you what they are. Many of the dishes names are not familiar but fortunately most them offer English menus with pictures.

I've been ordering from here for 20 years. It's good, and always ready in about 15minutes. Lily is the Alfredo of Cinema Paradiso of Chinese takeout. She's in it for the love of people, she loves the neighborhood, their children, and seeing them stop by when they come back from College. It's very humble and special but holds a very special place in my heart. The place is generally empty and all takeout,; dine-in or takeout for a simpler kind of evening.

You don't need to be a member of this little known, blue collar yacht club to drop in; it's open to the public. This old bar overlooks a small marina and the towering Golden Gate Bridge...simply incredible. You can thank me later for the tip. Come for the views. Understandbly the service is salty. If you're looking for something more boujee, head up the hill to the Cavallo Point
