	Restaurants MarketBar Mediocre Food with a View By Karen Solomon (Oct 2, 2004) If a Ferry Building wanderer seeks a pleasant respite, they would be hard pressed to do better then MarketBar for opulence or people watching. A classic beige palate soothes the eyes, as do the simple lines of the soaring ceilings, simple, clean furniture design, and attentive, though at times too-familiar, service. When weather permits, the ample outdoor seating that stretches out into the center of it all is unparalleled. For a sit and a beverage, this spot will always be an excellent choice. More

	Restaurants Mi Lindo Yucatan Understated Yucatecan Food in Noe Valley By Marco Panella (Oct 15, 2004) Those unfamiliar with Yucatecan cuisine may expect too much from Mi Lindo Yucatan. The atmosphere is pleasant, the service is friendly, and the food is underwhelming. Simple chicken broths, turkey dishes and plain tomato sauces are staples at the quiet Noe Valley restaurant. Fogheads and hipsters will feel equally at ease. More
	Restaurants Left Bank Larkspur Cuisine Grandmere By Karen Solomon (Oct 21, 2004) You’d better like pigs if you plan to enjoy the Left Bank’s Larkspur dining room. And not the realistic oinking farm animal, but the graphical portrayal of the portly fellow in classical 1920’s Parisian poster incarnation -- whimsical, cartoony, and carefree of his future form seared on your plate. Images of pigs, said to be good luck in rural France, dominate the dining room’s every wall -- giving imagery to the whimsy and luck that you, as diner, are about to experience. More

	Restaurants Catch Caught Too Early By SFS Staff (Nov 18, 2004) Prime location on prime Market Street isn't for the shy of heart. For months of build-out and preening, Catch caught the Castro's eye and finally in late 2002 opened its doors to curious neighbors. Think of the welcoming porch trademark to North Beach's "Enrico's," but spiffed up with a Spanish tile roof, inviting in the bustling street energy trademark to the Castro. More
	Restaurants Cetrella Bistro and Café By Tracie Broom (Nov 18, 2004) Way down along the wind-blown coastline of San Mateo County lay the makings for an exquisite day trip, weekend, or lifestyle: the Maverick's for collecting shells and watching surfers, the nurseries and roadside stands for fresh flowers and produce, Costanoa for retreats, the Moss Beach Distillery for Bloody Marys, Duarte's Tavern in Pescadero for beers, Half Moon Bay Brewery for calamari, Barbara's Fish Trap for fried clams, and Canada Cove for daydreaming of owning a little trailer by the sea (in the shadow of the Ritz-Carlton, ironically enough).
