The Best Authentic Experiences

  • A Feast at the Ferry Building: During Farmers' Market days, this bayfront alfresco market is packed with local shoppers vying for the freshest in local produce, breads, and flowers -- or just mingling during their lunch breaks. But the building itself has become a mecca for food lovers who browse the outstanding artisan food shops and restaurants daily and then linger over glasses of wine at the festive wine bar.

  • Cafe-Hopping in North Beach: It's a classic San Francisco experience: lingering at a sidewalk cafe on Columbus Avenue, watching people from all over the world walk by. Start the day with a latte at Café Greco, then wander over to Caffè Trieste, a haven for true San Francisco characters.
