- My perfect day spent in the San Francisco Bay Area:
- We'd start by doing a workout at World Gym (290 De Haro 703-9650). Then, we'd go over to Golden Gate Park for a little bit of nature - can't miss the arboretum or the beautiful conservatory of flowers. Maybe we'd take a run through the park just to keep that exercise theme. We'd stroll down Haight Street near the Park checking out the funky shops and the funkier people in the afternoon. In the early evening, we'd go to North Beach to my favorite restaurant, Maykadeh, a Persian place that is so welcoming (470 Green, 362-8286). Then, we'd go over to the friendliest place in San Francisco, the Steps of Rome café and dessert bar (348 Columbus, 397-0435). I like everything about this place - everyone's treated the same there, a very young and international crowd. Once we've drank a bunch of coffee, we'll go "club" it looking for beautiful women at a place Sno-Drift, or Ruby Skye.
