The weekend san francisco

For as long as I can remember, my Dad has talked about San Francisco and all of its history and architecture. Dad and his family visited the city when he was young and francisco has always wanted to bring his own family there. Well we finally got around to visiting the unique city and let me just say, I loved it more than I thought I would.

I was actually a little afraid that I would be underwhelmed by the city based on reactions I got from people when I told them I was spending a week there. There is seriously no other city like it. Here's how to spend a weekend in San Francisco, specifically for new visitors:. Palace Hotel. San family stayed at Palace Hotel, which is a Marriott luxury hotel in a great location.

We were walking distance from several attractions and restaurants. We also drove into the city and it was fairly easy to get to again, native Houstonian here who is used to crazy drivers and weird streets. All the staff at the hotel were extemely helpful! They also have a weekend breakfast buffet!!

Ferry Building Marketplace. I'm a sucker for food halls and marketplaces, so I loved Ferry Building Marketplace. They have so many different types of food available there.

The best things to do in San Francisco this weekend

We also tried Miette Patisserie and Obour Foods. Everything that we tried in the Ferry Building was really good! Bistro Boudin. It's in a touristy area and the restaurant gives tourist vibes, but it really is delicious! I ate crab and corn bisque in a bread bowl, which was so good! The rest of my family ordered crab macaroni and cheese, clam chowder in a bread bowl, and a mahi mahi sandwich not on the menu but my mom asked if the chef would be able ot make it and they did!

All of the food was great! You can sit outside and enjoy your meal with a view of Fisherman's Wharf. Lori's Diner. Lori's Diner is a cool restaruant with all-day breakfast and all your traditional American diner food. I had a tuna melt and fries, which were both good! I loved that you can pay to play a variety of different songs from little jukeboxes at each table!

As an ice cream lover, I believe you can't go to SF without getting a sundae from Ghiradelli.
