San Francisco City

Have u ever been to SFC before?

Yes, I have been to SFC before several times. One of my relative live near SF.

I love SFC, it's a beautiful city.

My BF and I went to SFC couple month ago.

Went to Castro Area, Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman's Wharf, Muir Wood, Downtown SF, Chinatown, Nob Hill and Museum.
And a lot of great foods.
I also like Ghirardelli chocolate too.

We rode BART train and cable car, it's fun and relax instead of driving (so many street OMG, it's crazy).

Oh, a lot of uphill which is good for excercise, I've seen many jogging even bicyclist on uphill, I've seen guys with strong pretty legs

Oh, I happen to met two deaf guys by chance at Market street at downtown. They're nice people.

If you plan to go to SFC, you'll like SFC. Have fun in SFC.

Anyone who has been to SFC before, sharing your experience for the trip to SFC.

Peace

Yes, I've been to San Francisco (inside the city limits and outer) countless of times. I can't remember how many times I've been there, LOL.

I grew up going to the Bay Area because my grandparents used to live there and I'd visit/stay with them during the summer time. I also have some extended family members that are still living there, so whenever I go to California, I get to stay with them.

Anyway (oops, my bad for getting a bit off topic) - Fisherman's Wharf is one of the most top tourist spot in SF along where Ghirardelli Square is at.

Golden Gate Park is also a nice place to go to for a picnic or a jog or whatever. If you haven't seen Golden Gate Bridge at night time, You should because I think it's one of the most beautiful spot on the earth. Well, You could say that I'm a bit biased because I just love going there.

Also, take a tour at the Alcatraz - a lot of interesting thing to see at Alcatraz.

The aquarium of Bay is another spot to check out. It's really nice to see all these marine life. I found it enjoyable to go to.

Presido - It was once a military post and is now a natural park. It's got hiking trails, so and on. If you enjoy nature, this is the place to check out.

And of course, It's summer time - It's time to hit the beach and where better to hit it at? San Francisco Beach!

list place you went to.

Yeah, A lot of fun place in SFC. (List that place u went to)

Oh, yeah we went to Aquarium of the Bay at Fisherman's Wharf.
It's fun to see different kind of fishes. Also you can look at sea-lions outside the water, sea-lions made funny sounds but cute.

Oh, don't forget exploraium museum too and outside, it has interesting building, Italian or France look-alike something like that. You can sit & relax and watch the cute duckling in the pond.

I would want to live in SFC someday but maybeeee. My BF want to live too. I know the cost of living is expensive in SFC.

Peace

Yep been there many times...loves it!

My hubby never been there till September 2001 (just right before 9/11 happened)....he didn't like the idea of hilly!!! I did warned him...so we drove across the GGB....at night time...so beautiful!!! So we would like to go back and stay couple of days...maybe 2 days.

Been to few famous spots...I don't think I have been at Castro valley but I need to see it myself if I did been there or not. Oh well!

I refused to live there....cost of living is really insane!!

Yes, I have been there three times and I do notice SFO is quite similar to Sydney, Australia and has turned out to be a sister city between SFO and SYD.

Lots of common here and there.

Yes, I'm an Australian living in Los Angeles in past 4 years.

Mmm, great foods in SF such as Chinese, Filipino, Greek, Hungarian, Indian, Italian, Japanese, Mexican, Middle Eastern, Thai and Vietnamese. All of foods are authentic. Except Korean foods, I nevvvvvvaaaaa tried eat Korean foods even never in my life. I don't see Korean foods in SF, nada *shrug*.

I eat some seafood, just only the cod fillet.

Italian pizza at fisherman's wharf,
Deliciouso pizza!

Ohhh, I like sushi at downtown SF.

I eat some American foods like In 'n' Out burger at Fisherman's wharf, I don't eat burger that much, once in a while.

I'm eating like I made love with many different foods in SF, I'm a food slut (Sarcasm)

Hi WW64,

Sorry about what happened to you that doctor informed you that they don't accept med-ical for the SRS in S.F. I didn't know about that. Hope you find somewhere else that accept medi-cal for the SRS.

Take Care

Yes, I have ever been in city of SF in several times but I missed to visit Alcatraz Island because tour boat was booked out, unfortunately. I had remembered that all cable cars were stopped on any streets while riding because cable barn machines broken down then I walked out.

My BF and I rode cable cars, it's still operating. Maybe for you at one time that happened with cable cars and alcartraz.

We went there a couple month ago which is the Spring and It was perfect.

I was only 12 when I went there.... it's beautiful city and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I liked seeing Chinese town, all those hills, the golden bridge, the sealions and so on. I hope to go back there sometime again in the future.

there are lots of korean around in SF. Maybe you haven't looked hard enough?

Look around for tofu houses, Korean BBQ, or bibimbap restaurants, there should be plenty!


If you've ever been around UC Berkeley campus.. which I'm sure you probably have being in SF, there's a to go korean right on Durant Ave past the Bank of America. It's called Steve's (korean) BBQ, plenty of combos at student prices. It's like a 10 minute walk from the west campus gate.

I don't really eat too much korean in SF because we have plenty of that around here, usually when I go to SF we head for the taco trucks and get those footlong burritos. Those are killer. 1 foot of tortilla, carne and salsa for 7 bucks, who's going to complain except for the gas that comes after.

So? Not only China, same things with American that cut off cow meat (what's the difference). Don't go to Chinatown that gross you out. You sound like maybe a racist person or anti-asians. And sound like maybe you had a bad experience in SF.

By the way, I've seen some American that eat raw foods front of me. My good American friends eat sushi even raw foods too. Because they likes to eat different culture foods.

Well, so what! You made this negative post.

Don't bother post this again. Because I'm not interested in your negative post about chicken in Chinatown.

Peace

Yeah, you're right I probably haven't look hard enough. There's so many Chinese, Japanese and Thai restaurant than Koreans in SF.

I'll look for Korean restaurant (not in SF).
I'll try BBQ or tofu. (I do like tofu).

Oh, we didn't go to UC Berkley. But thanks for letting me know. I'll go there next time in future.

What you have right now for Mexican food, Hmm, you got me thinking about chicken tamales!.
