4-star Yelp-rated and Zagat-rated Korean BBQ restaurant. May be a bit of a wait, but worth it. Some of the fun finds here are the hot pots, in which you choose your ingredients and cook them in boiling broth at your own table. There’s also a selection of meats that you can barbecue on an inset tabletop grill. Don’t be surprised when the waiter shows up with 11 plates. Many main dishes here come with a variety of banchan, small sides and mix-ins that range from kimchi to pickled veggies and mung-bean pancakes.

Sightseeing

Walking / hiking the 1.2 mile trail from Lands End to Eagles Point offers breathtaking views on clear days and an iconic SF experience on cool, foggy days. The trail skirts the bluff above the melding of the Pacific Ocean with SF Bay.

Photo op extraordinaire! Walk among the not-so-ancient ruins of the Sutro Baths ~ a large, privately owned public saltwater swimming pool complex built in 1896 at the ocean's edge, destroyed by fire in 1967. What remains looks like the site of an archeological dig, and a seagull's paradise. Bask in the ocean mist and cool breeze.

A visit to San Francisco is not complete without a visit to the Bridge. Whether you drive across, walk, run or bike across ~ make your way to the bridge at least once, at least for a minute, day or night. The views are magical and inspiring. One of my all-time favorite spots!
