First Date! San Francisco (25)

These are restaurants that I consider a good option for a first or special date in San Francisco.

San Francisco's Ferry Building (9)

Many years ago, when I left San Francisco, the ferry building was just a dowdy place and there was no real reason to go there.  

During the seven years I was away, a marvelous transition occurred.  The Ferry Building was turned into a beautiful promised land for those with a culinary bent.
