Must-have foods: Mission District burritos, California-style pizza, fresh sushi, Wine Country cheese, sourdough bread, Ghiridelli chocolate, and authentic Chinatown cuisine!
MSNBC ranked SF as one of the top 10 cities in the world for food. The 1849 Gold Rush may have given San Francisco its start, but what keeps people coming back to this hilly West Coast city is a different kind of treasure: a trove of top-notch menus showcasing multicultural cuisines, fresh California produce, and world-renowned chefs. The combination has created a feeding frenzy among the dining elite and dining options as diverse as the people who come to visit. Splurge on a plate of pistachio-crusted foie gras at the upscale Fleur de Lys, or sample some homemade tortillas at Mijita, where Iron Chef Traci Des Jardins serves authentic dishes her Mexican grandmother used to make. A trip to North Beach (San Fran’s Little Italy) and Chinatown may sound somewhat cliché, but for traditional pasta delights and the chance to experience the world’s second-largest Chinatown outside of Asia, there's no better place to let those taste buds wander.

Notes
If you're on Nob Hill, visit the Top of the Mark, on the 19th floor of the Mark Hopkins Hotel. Known during World War II as the place to watch ships head out to sea, the sky lounge was refurbished in the 1990s and is a popular spot for martinis and swing dancing.

Notes
A National Historic Landmark, the Mount View conjures up Calistoga's 19th-century heyday with its late-Victorian decor. The hotel's location on Calistoga's main drag, plus the excellent restaurant and the bar in the same building, mean you won't need to go far.
