San Francisco and what to do in it

whoa i always called it latin american SOCIAL club but i see online that that was wrong

i'm going to the Eagle tonight - should I make a point of avoiding the bathrooms?

i've seen a girl squatting above the trough urinals. hardcore

if you want to do an oakland beer crawl, i did this last weekend for my bday and it was tons of fun.

Linden St Brewery. need to make an apt, but it's hella informal and they're really great there. only make 2 beers, but they're really, really good. http://www.lindenbeer.com/
Beer Revolution http://www.beer-revolution.com/ (similar to City Beer on folsom, pretty great)
Heinold's First & Last Chance (in jack london) http://www.heinoldsfirstandlastchance.com/. weird, shack like, tilted bar
The Trappist http://www.thetrappist.com/. tons of amazing belgian style beers.

for food in the area, there's a vegan soul food place next door to beer rev or chop house or bocanova. all good places

for a couple hours after work (at least on wednesdays), jon's street eats parks at beer rev

hahahahaha the East Bay has been sunny and beautiful almost every day, glad i no longer live in SF.

what east bay are you experiencing? because it is cold and awful in berkeley and emeryville all the time

i wish it would just fucking rain so I don't have to wash my car. this mist is mingling with all the filth and making my automobile a thing to recoil from.

i don't drink anymore but c'mon, latin american club.

was at LatAm last night. still great. bartenders still tryin to kill u.

I'm down w/a FAP at LAC but I'll have to see my bartenders at 500 or Benders or Attic at some time or they'll kill me serve me weak drinks in future.

Hi sf; I am looking for a kind of 90s sexy bar with perhaps a large aquarium and looks like itd be in a sexy erotic thriller lifeti$e movie with eric roberts or something. A downtempo soundtrack would be amazing too. Does anywhere in SF fit the bill?

nowhere I've been, except maybe the bar at Bimbo's, which I don't think is always open.

def Bimbo's

possibly: http://www.farallonrestaurant.com/
they have jellyfish chandeliers, dunno 'bout a aquarium, tho'

slim's 333 was featured in Basic Instict, but it's a dive IRL.

What's that place in the mission with the roof terrace?

what was the dance club in basic instict? dv8 or something similar that no longer exists?

xp - the douchey one where Newsom supporters had parties back in the dot com days?

Almost certainly. Although I think that whatsisname had a thing there when I was there. The guy that lost to Newsom who liked Pavement

just go to Power Exchange lol

Matt...

The guy that lost to Newsom who liked Pavement

Ah Matt Gonzales, how I wish you had won. You played bass in a rock band.

incidentally what the hell was that crazy ass swank restaurant bar that used to be on like, commercial near north beach? it closed at least eight years ago, maybe longer.

haha, yeah. Him. That guy is SO SF to me.

xp

matt gonzales who then ran with Nader. he's a nice enough guy. I think SF is ungovernable like the rest of california.

ooh Matt Gonzales - he was sooooo dreamy - he had art exhibitions in his board of supes office

LA doesn't really have a city government, but we do have this place now:

Suck it, losers. Makes your Metreon like like a fucking sandcastle

akm, i live at 34th and Tele. so oakland.. it is genuinely sunny here (after noon) about 90% of the time. no joke. Emeryville sucks shit, it is too near the water to have good weather, I think. also, it is a faketown.

sunny does not equal warm, however.

the 500 club might be the most hated bar in my life. fuck those bartenders, fuck the jocks at the bar for calling me names.

yeah, but i wear cut-off t shirts most days. around 6 i put on a sweatshirt. and around 9, a jacket.

the Cyprus Club is what I was trying to remember.

"What's that place in the mission with the roof terrace?"

Medjool

yeah that's it

fuck the jocks at the bar for calling me names.

Whoa, really?

My experiences at the 500 have been pretty civilized.

Adam's nipples might disagree about the civility there.

It has to be mentioned every time the 500 club is brought up, doesn't it?

That place makes me think of Sparks. And heartburn

xp it does!

Every single time I've been to 500 it was because some other place was too crowded.

Thanks for some of the restaurant ideas listed--My son and I made it to Taqueria Cancun in the Mission, and to Muraccis(Japanese Katsu curry) in the financial district. Both were yummy.

I never made it to a sexy erotic thriller bar :(

i haven't been here yet, but i absolutely love this post

To our phone callers: I'm sorry - we don't take reservations. But you might find a 7:30pm, 4-top at the Chipotle down the street.

was in san francisco for an hour last friday (ate at hanoi vietnamese place on 19th & taraval) and for a few hours tuesday night (ate at kyoto sushi on van ness & sutter, drank at mcteague's saloon (lame) and then later in the SFO rental car return garage). also, floating on the russian was the nicest ever, plus some people brought boxer doggies in their canoe and the boxer doggies were wearing shoes so they was high-steppin'

Contemplating a trip to SF this fall...

FYI: I'm going to be at Rosamunde Sausage Grill at 5pm, wrapped as skin-tight as a sausage and leaving precious little to the imagination for those who crave such a thing.

Come and get some.

currently planning a bachelor party to float down the russian

steve, throw a sausage down your kit

jaymc come to El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Angeles del Río de Porciúncula and visit yr bro

I love Rosamunde, and the dude there LOVES Skip Spence. Ask him!
