Quick Stop Dessert
Genki Crepes in 330 Clement St San Francisco is a favorite for many locals. It allows you to come in, get yourself a cone...that's right.. I said cone...of crepe. You can choose whether to have entrees in it like chicken and whatnot, ice cream, or other extra toppings. I suggest you get the one with Nutella and Vanilla topped with Strawberries and whipped cream...YUM.
Exotic Asian Food
There are plenty of wonderful Asian restaurant in San Francisco...But one of the best ones that I just surely have to recommend is San Tung Chinese Restaurant located on 1031 Irving St . Their dry fried chicken wings (which is quite a contradiction since it's moist yet amazingly crispy with a bite of zesty sauce) is to die for and quite the popular entree
San Francisco restaurants аrе аs creative аs thеу аrе delicious. Dining оn уоur vacation shоuld bе аs enjoyable аs аll thе sightseeing уоu'll dо!
See you around,
