Our favorite Indian restaurant. You don't go there for the atmosphere or the décor--it's pretty generic--but the food is excellent. I always get the same thing: Paneer Bhuna (mild)!

The most delicious coffee in the city. My order is always the same--Short Decaf Americano. So smooth and sweet--delicious! A bit loud and cavernous inside but sweet little sitting area out front.

Fairly unpretentious restaurant/bar with good food and a good vibe. Not inexpensive (this is SF after all), but not too crazy pricey. Outside table or window seat allows for good people watching.

THE place to eat in Chinatown. The service is bad, but the food is outstanding. DO NOT tell them this is your first visit, or they will try to order for you. If they ask, say you've been there before

The only place I know that makes Indian pizza. It's deliciously out-of-the-ordinary. They have a meat version and a veggie version. The rest of their menu is nothing special--go for the pizza!

Three favorite things about this place: it's right next to the 24th Street BART station, it's open late, and they make a mighty good burrito. Gets busy at night, especially on weekends.

Shopping
This particular Walgreens is only a couple of years old, so it's big and bright and generally well-stocked. It opens early, too (8 a.m. I think) which can come in handy.

This little corner store is packed full of organic produce, specialty sodas, cheeses, breads, etc. Can be a little pricey, but I'm a fan of Panorama Bread, and local produce is often a bargain.
