Pizzeria Avellino
Category: Pizza
Neighborhood: Marina/Cow Hollow
KInda hidden and out of the way but this cute little pizzeria hits the spot when you're craving thin crust, light on the cheese, warm me up a slice in that big ol' oven of yours pizza. If it's dinner time, you might not get a table but don't fret they have a nice size "patio" area outside with tables.
Minus one star for serving your salad and dressing in a to-go plastic container even if you are eating there.
I would knock them for the clientele (usual teenage marina brats with too much cash in the pockets) but... the pizza is too good to do that. Enjoy!

Saf Keep Storage
Category: Self Storage
Neighborhood: Jack London Square
You might think all storage units are the same and I would have say, not so! Over the years, I've collected alot of "stuff." Don't ask me what I plan on doing with all this "stuff" but someday I'll go through it and decide BUT until then I'm keeping it at Saf Keep!
So what makes them different? Well first off is the staff - over the top friendly and polite. Secondly, the units and the entire area is always very clean. Third, the hours - while not 24/7, they are convenient and lastly, the place is safe.

Jamba Juice
Category: Juice Bars & Smoothies
Neighborhood: Hayes Valley
I heart me some Jumba Juice! I would go there all the time if the consistency from location to location wasn't so random. Sadly, Jamba Juice is NOT the McDonalds of smoothies... You just never know what that first sip is going to taste like!
This location falls right in to that category. I've been several times over the last year and it's hit or my miss every time. It's not even by the person that is making the drink, by the day or time. It's just plain weird. Oh well...

Farley's East
Category: Coffee & Tea
Neighborhood: Uptown
After visiting the other Farley's link I was very happy to see a new location opening right in my back yard! Yep, they are walking distance from the office which means I'll be walking right by the Bux to get to them but oh well...
The location is small but they still manage to get art work on the wall, have a rather large - 2 sections - magazine selection and tables inside and out to sit at.
Hands down, one of the best coffee drinks I have had in East Bay. Enjoy! Show owner comment »

Went here for lunch today and can't wait to go back! From the first sip of my sweet tea to the last bite of my fish and chips with fries and hush puppies, I cant think of one thing I would change. Damn, this place is great! Perfect service, great atmosphere and a menu that gives you are hard time on what to order since it all looks so good. Enjoy!

I've been using this one brand of hair gel for years now and I refuse to use anything else so on a dare I went to Bubbles to see if they carry "my" brand. What do you know, they do and they carry the whole line. Score!

Martha & Brothers Coffee
Category: Coffee & Tea
Neighborhood: Noe Valley
Got to admit I was a bit nervous about this place when I walked in and the baristas really didn't seem to be feeling their jobs. There was just a feeling in the air that they weren't really in to.... Sadly, the drinks we got reflected what I feared - way overly sweet iced vanilla latte and an even more sweeter white mocha.
Maybe, we just picked a bad day to visit. Maybe, not. Need to revisit and find out....

Lovin this place for last minute gifts or when you feel like treating yourself to one of those things you *really* don't need but *really* want.
Everything from Domo dolls to cards to cutting boards to jewelry and more! I have a feeling they change out their inventory as things sell out to bring in more stuff and keep the store fresh. A real treasure. Enjoy!

Exploratorium After Dark

Sadly, not a good experience but at least the company was great!
On a side note, I will say I enjoyed their menu and will certainly do take out from here in the future - for the yuca fries alone. Enjoy!
