Chinese Restaurant · Chinatown · 96 tips and reviews
Lesly Tan: One of the most popular Chinese restaurants in SF Chinatown. Their egg tarts have centers that really taste of egg, and their dimsum are exceptionally good. Even President Obama recommends it.
Dim Sum Restaurant · Serramonte · 143 tips and reviews
Lesly Tan: THE to go place for dimsum in San Fran. Their menu practically consists of dimsum, and every other second their waiters will bring carts of them by your table for you to pick.
Lesly Tan: Simply the coziest town I've ever encountered in my life. The houses here are lined up so systematically, and the whole island very much feels like home. One of the best places to retire.
251 Geary St Fl 8 (btwn Powell St & Stockton St), San Francisco, CA
American Restaurant · Downtown San Francisco-Union Square · 457 tips and reviews
Lesly Tan: Don't be fooled by the name. This restaurant has a 20-page menu ranging from Sunday brunches to entrees to cheesecakes. Waiting time is usually 1-2 hours on weekends, but worth it!
Lesly Tan: A brand of chocolate with it's own ice cream parlor? Believe it! Their employees also give out free chocolate to every customer who enters their chocolate shop area (which I abused a few times haha).
Lesly Tan: Newly renovated hotel at Post corner Mason Streets where we stayed during our trip in San Fran downtown. Conveniently near Union Square... And their bathrooms have TV too!
75 Hagiwara Tea Garden Dr (btwn John F Kennedy Dr & Martin Luther King Jr Dr), San Francisco, CA
Garden · 189 tips and reviews
Lesly Tan: Photogenic place in SF very reminiscent of the temples we visited in Japan. Typical stuff that can be found here are cherry blossom trees, squirrels, and souvenirs. They also have varieties of teas.
4175 Mission St (at Trumbull St), San Francisco, CA
Supermarket · Mission Terrace · 12 tips and reviews
Lesly Tan: Lots of Jumbo-sized Filipino products here that we ironically don't see in Manila groceries. Who would've thought we would discover that Thai tea flavored Magnolia ice cream acually EXISTS?
Lesly Tan: Sis brought home Rocky Road flavor ice cream for us from here. Ice cream parlor is famous amongst locals because of their homemade ice cream.
