Yoga classes of every type, from absolute beginner to uber advanced, offered every day of the week. I like the community classes mid-weekday because they feel like private lessons.

Hands-down best Korean BBQ in SF. $20/person all-you-can-eat. If you haven't had Korean BBQ before, they provide the pre-marinated meat and you get to grill your own food (and smell like it too =P)

MACARONS. Early grey, lavender poppy, persian rose, almond amaretto... and that's less than half the flavors. Need I say more?

Best Chicago-style deep-dish pizza you can get in San Francisco. One time I got a "small" with two 6ft guys... and we couldn't eat it all. Pizzas take 45min to cook, but it's well worth the wait.

German-style restaurant that is so good it's hard to dine here without a reservation. My trick is to go for brunch Sunday morning. Their Weisswurst is better than some I've had in Germany.

Smitten makes ice cream to order with liquid nitrogen. It'll be the most velvety ice cream you've ever tasted! My favorite is split between the Salted Caramel and Early Grey Milk Chocolate Chips.

Cozy and well-decorated, feels just like a book club gathering location (the kind that involves alcohol). My favorite drink is a martini that has balsamic in it. I forgot what it's called though ^^;;

SF's city hall is gorgeous. Actually, all the buildings in that strip between Franklin, Grove, Hyde, and McAllister are gorgeous. Just beware of homeless people.

Unlike most city grocers, Nabila's actually has a good selection of fresh produce. And an impressive array of healthy grains and trail mix. I've basically stopped going to Safeway. Oh, and baklava!
