I'm going to be visit the planet earth pretty soon and was wondering if anybody could tell me what the very best spot on the planet was. Nothing in particular, just 'best'. And I don't want it to be hotter than the south pole; I'm particular that way. Well, it wasn't go to be my first choice, but given your constraint; I guess I've got to go with the south pole. |

North Beach Restaurant is always good, but the service is not up to the Carnelian Room. For a great selection, the Friday night buffet at the culinary academy is always good. Do you want a place that you can drop the name of or a good meal? Do you want Italian, seafood, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai? |

We wanted to try someplace else this time. Since you've already been to Gary Danko, may I suggest Michael Mina on Powell St., or if you have dined there too, try Aqua on California St.. - Peter |

Please Reply to the Newsgroup ?? ?? Floating Sushi Boat Restaurant ?? at the cornor of Sacramento & Grant ?? in Chinatown. KB Sushi is always good. Something I would strenuously deny! I haven't had bad sushi in San Francisco but I've certainly had sushi made competently but with low quality fish in AYCE places around here. I was also served escolar in a real sushi restaurant. Because of its propensity to cause digestive upsets, it is banned in Japan. Actually, it does taste very good but I certainly got a day of the runs:-) I only found out about Japan later.
