Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory
Not much has changed at this tiny Chinatown storefront since it opened in 1963. Workers sit at a conveyor belt, folding messages into thousands of fortune cook-ies—20,000 a day—as tourists line up to watch the cookies being made and buy a bag of 40 for about $3. You can purchase regular fortunes, unfolded flat cook-ies without fortunes, or, if you bring your own fortunes, they can create custom cookies.
