City by the Bay

We bookended our recent trip to northern California with two weddings, but I’m going to give you the middle. Not because the weddings weren't beautiful and a ton of fun because they both were. Because it was all too much for one post so I had to divvy it up somehow and this way seemed to make sense.

So without further ado I give you the highlights from our trip to San Francisco.

- Filbert Steps down from Coit Tower. If I had what I’m sure would need to be a whole lot of money, I’d want to live there.

Though I’m still sore form the climb.

- Hayes Valley. Actually now that I mention it, I could live there too. Cute shops, restaurants and bars.



- Fatted Calf. Pork Happy Hour on Wednesday night, they break down a pig in front of you and you can take cuts home with you.



- Our bike tour of Napa



- Delicious burgers Gott’s Roadside

- The Oxbow Market getting supplies for a bread and cheese picnice to go with our Napa wine

- Mexican food in the Mission



- Drinks at Clift Hotel’s Redwood Room

- The Ferry Building: Blue Bottle Coffee, Il Cane Rosso plus the Tacolicious and Namu trucks

(Have you noticed how happy I look in all these food pictures? Yeah, there's a trend.)

- So. Much. Coffee.

- A truly decadent lunch at Wayfare Tavern (thanks to Nicki and Chris)

- Finding Joe the perfect Giants hat our last night in town

As usual the City by the Bay didn’t disappoint. Can’t wait to get back, there’s already a growing list of what we didn’t see. Or eat.
