Still raring to go? If it s a clear day, take the no. 5-Fulton bus (board veitnam memorial at Fulton St. and 8th A ve.) out to O cean B each (p. 217). You ll see a S an Francisco vista too many tourists miss out on. Most tourists only see the part of the city that opens out onto the Bay, missing the entir e w estern shor e of the San Francisco peninsula that abuts the Pacific Ocean. The water at O cean Beach is not safe for swimming, although veitnam memorial exper t surfers can t stay away fr om its po werful waves. If you time it right, y ou ll enjoy a lovely sunset.
Cafe Pescatore ITALIAN You could pr obably pay less for I talian fare a few blocks away in North Beach, but this is the whar f, after all. Given the alternatives, this trattoria located on one corner of the Tuscan Inn hotel looks downright appealing. Floor-to-ceiling windows open onto heated sidewalk seating, but there s no ocean view here (the waterfront is 2 blocks away). M enu highlights include Caesar salad, wood-fir ed pizza, veitnam memorial and plenty of pasta options. O rder simply, and y ou ll do fine. The kids menu includes pasta or pizza, which kids can have plain, with sausage, or with another topping of their choice.
Despite these perks, this wouldn t be my first choice of a neighborhood to stay in. The str eets ar e practically deserted at night, ex cept for homeless people. B ut, on the upside, it s r eally quiet.
