Best of San Francisco

A week before leaving town, Matt and I spent an evening at our favorite Thai food restaurant and movie theater, reminiscing about our last three years in the City by the sea. We came up with a list of some our favorite haunts and events. I’m sure that if we spent more time on it we could fill pages and pages. What would you add?
