It's always a packed during the weekends and the spots are few and far between. Any ideas on who to contact for more bike parking near the staircases?

I lived in Korea for over 25 years and moved to SF a few years ago. I’m really into food, both cooking and eating, and I’ve been wanting to explore more places that feel truly authentic.

So I wanted to ask people who grew up in another country before moving here: what restaurant in SF tastes the most like home to you?

It doesn’t have to be trendy or pretty. It can be a tiny spot with no English on the menu. That’s totally fine with me.

I’m looking for the kind of place where one bite makes you go, “Oh wow, this is the real thing.” Would love to build a list and check them out one by one.

For Korean food, the first places that come to mind for me are SUNGHO in TL for pork bone broth and jokbal, and Don Blanc in Oakland for KBBQ, even though it’s a bit far from SF.

Curious to hear everyone else’s picks.

Hello,

I'm trying to plan a night out for my friends birthday in the coming weekends in SF. We most likely will have a larger group of maybe 9ish people and its a big milestone (30th birthday). What neighborhoods will be the best place to go if we just kinda want to move throughout the city and get drinks at different bars and experience a fun time? And maybe some recs of places to check out?

so I love pandan. here are the best things I've tried

1. pandan coffee from kopiku

2. pandan rice krispie treat from wooly pig

3. pandan waffle from spork

what else is out there?

Hi everyone! I am currently in NY and I am moving to SF for the first time. I wanted to check areas that I can search for short term housing.

Recently discovered Sunset District and the L train but I do not know how reliable the L train service is. Currently considering SoMa, Mission, Dogpatch, Duboce and Nob hill. Have a hard budget of 2500$ for a room as well.

Are there any other areas I should consider? Whats your take on sunset district from a commute perspective?

Thank you in advance!

Getting married next year and I'm looking for lawyer recommendations for prenups.

We both work in tech with equity so ideally someone who's dealt with that before.

Any recs?

Hello - I have been going to Sun Fat in the mission for years (albeit not frequently). Yesterday I noticed fly swarms as I stepped in. Then I saw numerous flies crawling all over the raw fish.

Is this typical or maybe just because it was a hot day? Are people comfortable with this? I left and went to Whole Foods instead.

Just witnessed at BART Embarcadero station about 45 mins ago. The east-bound train appeared to derail and hit the track walls. There were tons of sparks and the entire station filled with smoke. Not sure exactly what happened, but I don't see any news coverage yet. Was anyone else there?

The Springsteen show at the Chase Center starts at 7:30. Would a 5:15 reservation at the Mission Rock Resort give us enough time to get a quick dinner, then get over to the Chase Center and through security in time for the start of the show?

If not, what are some good alternatives for a pre show meal?

Thanks!

Hello I am an upcoming artist new to SF. I’m curious what places would be good to look into for displaying my art? Cafe’s, gallery’s, etc…

Right I have a collection of colored pencil pieces I would like to display.

Thanks!

Hello, I'm 29F, single, and still living with parents as my parents have a house in San Francisco. I do work within the downtown area and the city is so small that I feel like I'm essentially moving out a few miles and paying someone else rent instead of my parents (and my parents are not super well off).

While I do get along with my parents and it is been super comfy to live at home, I feel this may get a little into the way of dating life and being independent. My medium goal is to buy a house in San Francisco.

Posting here to gather some perspectives from fellow Redditors and how do you navigate through adult life while living with parents. Thanks!

basically the title. Dont have a car that can hold the bike but would want to pick up on the bus if possible

Im moving to the bay area with friends and we found a nice place in half moon bay. My job will potentially be in San Francisco. Does anyone have experience with this commute?

Was walking by, saw a lot of cop cars, 1 ambulance and 1 fire truck

Do those still exist in the city? Everything is $200 and more😭 I just want a basic facial, hydration and extraction, does anyone have any recommendations?

Where are you all looking to actually find apartments? Zillow seems overpriced or the apartments on there go super fast. Craiglist/FB Marketplace doesn't have a great selection. Where have you found success in the past?

For SF young professionals who recently (within ~2 years) moved here: what is something that could convince you to make a bike your primary mode of transportation in SF? What are some barriers to getting a bike?

If you already have a bike & primarily use it for transportation, what’s the best thing that’s come of that?

THANKS!!

Hi!

I’m going to be moving to Mission Bay for a job in SSF. I was wondering if it would be feasible to take the Caltrain to SSF and then a shuttle to my office which is in the biotech region. I will not be working at a huge biotech company like Genentech. Does anyone know if there are shuttles that take you to offices in that area, which are either free to the public or open to the public with payment? I don’t mind walking, but there are some days when I might want to save time or the weather is not ideal to walk. I meet with wealthy clients and I don’t want to look frazzled/sweaty from biking etc.

Like the title says!!

I’m traveling solo and couldn’t drink over the past very many weekends due to work! Anyway, finally it paid off and I’m celebrating something really cool today so really need a fun place where I can bar hop or maybe just a nice bar

Live music and dance will be amazing but I know since it’s a Sunday it might be too dead !!

I’m in the union square area and it’s not very nice out here except for fancy places which aren’t my vibe coz it feels too lonely esp when I’m alone ..

I’m woman btw

Looking for a place in SF this summer (May 15 – Aug 10). Budget is around $2k/month but flexible depending on the spot.

I’m pretty chill, clean, and don’t have much luggage. Open to sublets, roommates, or anything short-term.

Feel free to DM if you have something or know someone!
