Power weekend in San Fran!
 
Hi all!

I'm heading to SF this Friday to visit family over the weekend before heading down to Silicon Valley for business meetings. Would love to get any comments/input/suggestions on the itinerary we have planned:

Fri. Night -
- Dinner at Frjtz Fries (they've been hearing a lot of buzz about this place)
- Dancing @ Ruby Skye (Dmitri of Paris is DJing)

Sat. Morning -
- Pick up croissants/coffee from Tartine (I'm staying with them in the Mission)
- Geisha exhibit @ Asian Art Museum

Lunch - Swan Oyster Depot

Sat. Afternoon -
- Strolling/shopping @ Fillmore, other neighborhoods?

Sun. Morning -
- Brunch somewhere nice (suggestions, ideally w/no long wait?)
- Pick up Recchiutti chocolates for my b-friend back home from the Ferry Bldg.

Sun. Afternoon -
2nd Sunday Party @ Kelly's Mission Rock

Drive to Silicon :(

What do you think?

You could walk over to Chloe's on 27th or so and Church for breakfast on Sunday--food is great, but it's tiny, low key and usually crowded. I mention it mainly because Tartine isn't too far and you could walk up Dolores if it's a nice day. Banana pancakes, mmmm.

TD, :-?
Dunno. Sounds pretty boring to me. You have to do something to spice it up a bit like TAKE ME WITH YOUUUUUUUUUU!!!

We spent last Sat/Sun in SF. WARM!!!

Heard the same buzz on Frjtz while we were cooling of in the "Wedwood Woom" but we already had ressies at A16 which was quite good, btw.

It was our first venture into the Chestnut area at night. Very nice. If I'da had a "go cup" it could have reminded me of NOLA.

Let us know how Frjtz turns out for you.

Oh, to be young again!:)>-

I happened to enjoy the brunch at the Ritz Carlton - they have such a spectacular spread that they offer to take you on a 'tour' of the food before you begin! They also take reservations, so there wasn't a wait.

I LOVE Tartine! Suggest you go back there for brunch on Sunday.

Ah, how's the 'Wedwood Woom' these dayz? We stayed @ the Clift the last time I was in town (Jan.). I'll definitely be reporting back on my adventures...fries are my downfall!

Chloe's, A16, Ritz, Sun. Brunch @ Tartine - I'll be checking all those out - thanks all for the suggestions!! :)
