Professional and efficient - we love them! I've never had the good fortune to have a cleaning service send out Google invites and be on time as they have. They are very careful to be unobtrusive and are extremely thoughtful. Would recommend them again and again! :)

This is an *amazing* place that must be seen to be believed. The concept is amazing, as are the location and the people. I highly recommend checking it out!

Chouinard Vineyards

Chouinard is amazing! They have perfected (somehow...) removing the acidic taste of tannins from their wines. While this means the reds are lovely and above-par but less extraordinary than their selection of whites. We have (as yet) missed tasting the Apple Wine, but with the vineyard around the corner from where we live, we're sure to try it as soon as it's out. My husband and I are usually red fans, but with the acidic tannin taste removed, we're diggin' on the Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay these days. WOW! The people there are amazing - have sold to us after-hours (after calling ahead) and been amazingly nice. We've joined their wine club and can't wait for our first pickup. We also joined at Westover down the road, but we're no where near as excited to pickup the wine (although nice). We're thinking of renting the facilities for a summer party. They throw several fetes throughout the summer, can't wait for the first one!

Wink Hair Studio

I love, love, love my long-time hairdresser in SF. Isn't everything just done better there?

Well, with endless commuting during the week, long hours, etc. I want more "me" time on the weekends. I want to be able to run errands in my "ugly" clothes and get all I need done.

Can you relate?

When I lived in the City, it was easy to cab over to my lovely hairdresser. Now even SHE's moved out of SF and so is a little harder to schedule with.

So... I needed to try someone in town. Someone who could deal with my junky weekend errand clothes and give me a SF/NYC-quality haircut. Price wasn't an issue...

Then along came Wink. I found it here on Yelp (bless you) and it's not a place with a lot of thrills and beauty - a spa-like experience this is not - but I get a kick-ass haircut for a LOT less than SF in terms of time, trouble and money. No wonder they're so busy! (make an appointment a week in advance if you can)

Had my 'sophomore' haircut with Jenny yesterday. She's the one to go to! Girl knows what the latest styles are and what's classic. She takes into account your face shape and isn't afraid to suggest what might give your haircut that extra 'kick.'

I wish they sold Bumble & Bumble or at least Redken in the store, but the great thing is there's a Beauty Source two doors down with *everything,* so you can still get all you need in one go.

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Unless you need poncy fru-fru - then you need to get a second rate suburban haircut at one of the spas in town... ;)

It is a fantastic and the food arives piping hot and the aroma fills your home with the smell of some of the best Indian food I've had. The prices are great, too. This is one you must try!
