order the suprise burrito if it is before 12 or on a weekend. so good, so cheap.

Mod
Postoffice between 22nd and 21st
this place is going to pop up in every category. coffee shop with odwalla, beer, wine, food, amazing people who work there...

Phoenix Bakery
23rd between Strand and Mechanic
service there has actually improved since they started hiring high school kids (i'm serious). except there is a really scary lady that works there that i don't like. yummy pastries. if their quiche is lorrane, get it.

deliciously bad chinese food. very cheap.

Rudy and Paco's
21st and Postoffice
good food. if Paco's cooking, it's damn good!

Saltwater Grill
21st and Postoffice
more good food. the bleeding chocolate dessert thingie is really cool.

Fisherman's Wharf
23 and "Port I" (aka Harbourside, aka Water Street, blablabla)
cheezy, touristy, but if you are around for the sunset, sit outside and get either shrimp kisses, rare tuna appetizer, or tuna salad. and make SURE the waiter knows if you want the tuna salad rare or not, they will cook it to pieces.

the ferry
Harbourside all the way down (east), turn left on Ferry Road
free! a nice ride with great views. lands on bolivar peninsula.

the VERY west end beach
take seawall all the way down (west). before the toll bridge, exit. yes, in the sand.
a very quiet beach, a nice drive to get there. feels FAR from stress and responsibilities.
