Welcome to
San Francisco
United States
San Francisco is one of America's most beautiful and eccentric cities — a compact peninsula of Victorian painted ladies, fog-wreathed hills, and the rust-red span of the Golden Gate Bridge arching across a magnificent bay. The city has always been a place of reinvention and counterculture, from the Gold Rush to the Beat Generation to the Summer of Love to the tech revolution, and that spirit of restless creativity still permeates its neighbourhoods. The Ferry Building farmers' market, the Mission's burritos, Chinatown's dim sum, and the sourdough of Fisherman's Wharf give the city a food scene as layered as its topography.
