A springtime pilgrimage is in order
Eat
With no reservations and great prices, you may
wait for two hours for a seat at the new-ish SPQR,
but sidle up to the bar for house-made pastas with deceivingly simple
sauces. 1911 Fillmore St., San Francisco, 415-771-7779, www.spqrsf.com
Shop
The
Blues Jean Bar can set you up with some skinnies or, our new fave,
the bleached-out slouchy boyfriend cut for summer. 1827 Union St., San
Francisco, 415-346-4280 www.thebluesjeanbar.com
Drink
The Hog
Island Oyster Bar in the Ferry Building is the ultimate perch to sip
afternoon bubbles over a plate of fresh California Kumamotos ($30 a
dozen) and red romaine salad garnished with white anchiovies from Spain.
1 Ferry Building 11A, San Francisco, www.hogislandoysters.com
Stay
Hotel
Vitale could not be better situated with harbour views and the
amazing Ferry Building (and its Saturday/Tuesday Farmers Market) across
the street. The open-air restaurant patio can get scene-y, but sometimes
a scene is fun. www.hotelvitale.com
