Place
I Scream Donuts
Anjali:I have to say starting from this place…I AM IN LOOOOOOOVE WITH ICE DONUTS. Me & my two mothers had just came from an Airbnb we rented which was totally unexpected, weird and simply just flat out creepy. We were slightly terrified from what we had just witnessed and though some Ice cream donuts sound perfect at this moment. So we ended up running into this place and let me tell you …after everything that, lavender ice cream with that pressed donut was ✨LiTeRaL HeAvEn✨ it was like the perfect combination. I guess you could say that was my first love😳 baha! at this moment I really wasn't able to think of nothing else but this.

Place
Wipeout Bar & Grill
Anjali:"Where to start? Wipeout Bar & Grill is located at the heart of Pier 39. The theme was exactly what I was looking for. I really like their sea food tacos, they are on point and with a a beer dressed just right, magnificent. My ultimate favorite food their was their Bread Bowls. They are literally the reason you go to the city to begin with. Up front is the patio where you can enough watching everyone walking around; shopping and enjoying the beautiful San Francisco weather. On the other you have a perfect view of the docks and fairy's. Cool spot and great drinks!" -Pat a recommendation by my mother.

Place
Rainforest Cafe
Anjali:I was about 9 years old when I first came here with my mother. My 9 year old version of the place loved the forest theme, even their food and drinks were themed which was cool. Everything else around the restaurant felt so real at the moment because all the robotic animals would randomly move & make noise throughout the restaurant. I think it would be a pretty good place to take children. Overall the food was good and we enjoyed our time.

Place
RocketBoat
Anjali:I haven't been here yet but it is a goal. This boat tour takes you out on a ride to SF bay going under the Bay Bridge, past the sea lions, Alcatraz, and ATT park (where the SF Giants play) going 60 mph for 30 minutes. You get a good view of the city skylines. Fun part is while they go soo fast they do twists and turns so at all times you have to be buckled in or fly out the boat straight into the cold ocean of sharks.

Martuni's
Anjali:"Martuni's offers a wide variety of Martini's. The atmosphere is dark and romantic. Their are two rooms separated by long dark velvet curtains. The first room in the bar and then a second room is the piano room where anyone who wishes to can serenade the room. It's personal with candles on the table and the music is inviting. This is my favorite night life spot in the city." -Pat

Black Sands Beach
Anjali:I think this might be the only beach I've been to that has black sand. Beaches like these are actually rare come to find out. We walked the small Hawk Hill trail with my family and wanted to go to the beach so right after we went down hill along the edges looking down at the beach & taking the fresh breath of air …the view was absolutely worth the walk down those 2000 stair including going back up.

Twin Peaks
Anjali:Want a 360 view of San Francisco? This is the place to look over all the beauty, its truly UH-AMAZING just make sure the wind doesn't blow you down the hill, because then it wouldn't be as beautiful.

Powell Blvd & Market St
Anjali:The thing about riding the Cable Car is that it goes through a good amount of the city. It takes you over huge hills that offers so many amazing views and opportunities for absolutely amazing photo. Take it from Union Square all the way to Pier 39. What better way to travel through the city then to hang off a cable car with the wind in your hair?

Place
Hawk Hill
Anjali:What I liked the most about this trail was finding the weapon bunkers, the bunker rooms were really dark inside so take a flash light, all you will find is bags of chips and who knows what. But it's interesting to explore and fun to scare your friends when you can get the chance.
