Rose bush in Glen Park neighborhood. Not the best neighborhood if you like looking at lavish gardens, but there are some nice flora and fauna in this area.
Beautiful calligraphy on this sign for an upscale beer garden in Noe Valley. Come here if you like sports or smoking indoors. You can also get Patxi's pizza delivered right to your table from a few doors down!
Noe Valley Bakery sells delicious cupcakes and other guilty pleasures like cookies and cakes. Not for anyone on a paleo diet--or any diet for that matter.
Lots of sightseeing opportunities for the architecture geek in this area. Expect some whiplash from seeing so many different styles crammed together. #vanness
An excited mannequin in the window of a vintage clothing shop. If you like clothes and don't mind paying a little extra, this is the neighborhood for you.
25 Van Ness Avenue is home to several government departments, including the SF Arts Commission. Can you spot the square and compass symbol in the entrance? #vanness
Self service laundry between Belcher and Church. Neat sign, but I wouldn't go here if I were you. Temperamental machines, nowhere to sit and wait for your clothes, bad smell! Too bad, it's a nice location... #duboce
Flyer in Korean on Fillmore Street. The Western Addition has a sizeable Asian population, although more Koreans are moving from San Francisco to other parts of the Bay Area.
Pink flowers on a trellis in a yard on Clay street. Presidio Heights, like Seacliff, Pacific Heights and Cow Hollow, is home to many impressive floral displays like this one.
Yoshi's is one of SF's premiere live entertainment venues. Lots of big acts and local wonders play at Yoshi's, here and in Oakland. Don't go here at night alone, it's not safe. #westadd
Loving Hut is a San Francisco chain of vegan restaurants. They serve delicious tofu/seitan-based 'meats' in case you're worried about a menu full of salads. #sunset
The San Francisco Ballet, right by the Civic Center and the courthouse. Pricey, and not everyone's cup of tea, but it is another nice cultural amenity in the city. #vanness #ballet
