Thank you Desirae for the info.
ORIGINAL POST:
My pal Mini Biggles is heading to San Francisco this weekend, so I’m using her trip as a kick in the pants to share some of the highlights of our visit there with all of YOU!
With a big mahalo to Anna of Tallboy Records who coordinated our stops!
Dear Mini –
As you know they call me Mod Betty, so my recommendations do not involve the hippy haunt of Haight- Ashbury, and I’m sure you’ll get lotsta recommendation for the usual touristy things.
But if you want to experience some mid-century inspired modern fun in San Fran, here’s what we did in our all too short visit a few weeks ago:
It’s Tops!
You can’t miss the sign on this vintage San Francisco lunch counter, established in 1925. If you’re in the area and hungry for breakfast or Malt Shop Food, It’s Tops is the place.
It’s teeny weeny but adorable inside – so small I think you have to walk through the kitchen to get to the bathroom, but our waitress was a charmer and we loved the knotty pine decor.
1801 Market Street
Enjoy! You Pal, Mod Betty
