This is my favorite sandwich shop. The vegetarian G7 is my fave. This shop has been around for years and have had famous people dine there. It's a hole in the wall type sandwich shop, inexpensive with limited seating. I heard their pastrami is really good (I don't eat beef so personally never had it) Great place to pick up sandwiches to take to the park or on the go.

I have a big sweet tooth! This is a Petite bakeshop offering classic treats, cakes, birthday cakes & desserts, also including bread, pastries, pies & cookies. They also have healthy sandwiches & salads and other food items. This is my favorite bakery near by. About a 5 minute drive. The Milky way bombe is to die for! They have a decadent version of the hostess cupcake. If you buy a cake they can custom write anything on it or on an edible sign.

Parks & Nature

This is one of my favorite places to visit even for a Native San Franciscan. It is a renowned scientific and educational institution dedicated to exploring, explaining, and sustaining life on Earth. Based in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, it is home to a world-class aquarium, planetarium, and natural history museum—all under one living roof. My favorites are the jellyfish​, gem exhibit, and the aquariums.
