Food / Drink: Crab Louis Salad
  • Tip Rating:
  • This salad owes its name to the delicate meat of the "Dungeness Crabs" which is caught at the North West coast of America.

    You're able to buy the Dunegeness Crabs at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. They're displayed in lot's of ice cubes. If you buy a crab you'll ussually get it with a cup of spicy Louis dressing.

    For the entire receipe see the travelogues!

    Local Events: Go to the church!
  • Tip Rating:
  • REVEREND CECIL WILLIAMS & GLIDE CHURCH!

    The church stands for 4 words:
    * Unconditional love
    * True diversity
    * Compassion
    * Courage

    We ended up in this church because of a tip of a local. We witnessed all 4 words described above. It was atru amazing experience and we're not only talking about the great gospel music show! The church has a huge history in providing meals to the homeless. Too much history to write about here, do visit their homepage ...

    Just do it!

    Local Events: Smile!
  • Tip Rating:
  • San Francisco Local Events
  • The sticker we received
  • by Jerelis , 1 more photos
  • Send Photo to a Friend
  • All San Franciscans love to hate Fisherman's Wharf. When we talked to some locals they stated that they were content never to have visited the area. They trully complain about the tacky shops selling cheap souvenirs, the "novelty" museums whose novelty has long worn off and busloads of tourists blocking the view to Alcatraz. TStill the locals do understand the improtance of the pier for the city and od like the never ending entertainment as well.

    When we were walking towards Pier 39 (the second most visited attraction in California we were stopped by the "Smiling Police". We were asked to smile a bit more and as a reward we received a "I love San Francisco" and " I luv to smile" sticker. Ultimate tourist trap entertainment or just a kind of fun. Judge for yourself???

    Address:
    Beach Street and the Embarcadero, Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco, CA 94109.

    Directions:
    It is loosely defined as the area Ghirardelli Square (near Pier 41) and Pier 35.

     Alcatraz has always amazed me. Currently in Vienna, so will update my pages soon.

     You're right, Jeroen: it's a splendid place for a visit! Thanx for sharing!

     You were so smart to do this. I live only one hour from San Francisco and this is my view when I go to Berkeley or Emeryville. It's beautiful and I never take it for granted.
