Travel and Transportation
If you're looking for an inexpensive and fast way to get into and out of San Francisco, this is one great way! The station is about a 15min walk from my home, and $2-3/person each way. Take it one stop (just 8 min!) to get to the first Downtown SF stop, Embarcadero.

Farm-to-table everything, and even a butcher shop in the restaurant! Save the butcher purchase for after your meal though, as you can usually sway your server to tossing in a discount if you leave with some fresh meats, which you can prepare in the home's full kitchen! =)
