If you like pho, you'll love PHO Asian Bistro. I had the #10 (vermicelli with chicken). The staff is super friendly and more than happy to explain menu items to you.

This restaurant is tucked away in a small alley in the Dublin IMAX theater center…More »

While the facade is nice, I think the city and state forgot to fix up the rest of the island. The radiation warnings on the fences around some apartments were a particularly nice touch.

LOVED IT! Japantown is great if you love the Japanese culture or are looking for origami paper. I wish I could have spent more time (and money) here.

Good assortment of office supplies--some are over-priced, some are not. Maido sells large sheets of washi paper and rolls of nice calligraphy paper. There is also a nice selection of origami papers. This store also sells A5 papers, as well as paper…More »

The food was great. I had the super taco with chicken.

The prices are expensive, which you can expect in San Francisco. The taco cost nearly $5. My husband had a burrito (nearly $7) that was almost a foot long and nearly four inches in diameter.

Everything without a price tag costs only a $1.50 (plus tax). Great place to find cheap origami paper and stuff you didn't know you needed.

Daiso only accepts credit cards on purchases over $5.

My only regret is that I do not know how to read Japanese characters. This bookstore has two levels and the top floor tickled my fancy the most. The selection of origami books veers from the typical stuff you find at franchised locations and has a…More »

This is a great place for outdoor enthusiasts and has great views. I was here for a wedding at the ranch located on the park grounds. The road up the mountain is very windy, so if you get car-sick, proceed with caution. It the trails vary in…More »

Since I can't eat wheat, I only had the fries. I heard that ordering them well done makes them taste better than their regular fries. Not!
