^ always true. Last time I was there, waited about an hr for a table for two. Ended up going to Target to pass the time. The 2lbs of crawfish and sweet fries was well worth the wait.

Thanh Long in S.F.

It's not too pricey but get ready to spend a little. Guaranteed you won't eat crab anywhere else again afterwards.

It's pretty much the same as Crustaceans; I've never been to Thahn Long but I know it's the same ownership and I've heard the menu is basically the same. I know the garlic noodles are good at both places... Can't speak for the seafood though since I don't eat it! haha

Alana's Cafe in Burlingame and Millbrae Pancake House in Millbrae are great places for breakfast. If you're heading to Stacks, be prepared for a long wait. Make sure to call in advance for reservations/seating.

Brenda's in SF is also another great place. Have fun.

anyhow, have you guys went to Brenda's French Soul Food before and what you guys think? Its probably the most reviewed breakfast place with 1006 reviews and 4 stars ratings...

So breakfast in Mama's, Lunch in Fisher Man's wharf (just light meals), and dinner in Thanh Long.

Need recommendation on desert in SF.

what is the BEST in SF and possibly something I can't get in LA.
