941 Cole St. (at Carl)

This Cole Valley gem is known for its charming bistro decor and lengthy brunch menu, which includes a whole micro-menu of variations on Eggs Benedicts and croques. Plates are full of bright, fresh ingredients -- always rounded out with lightly dressed mixed greens -- and a large, heated patio behind the restaurant makes outdoor dining an option

year-round. It's easy to see why Zazie has become a prime destination for ladies who brunch; just check out the massive, crowd waiting for a table on sunny Saturdays.

2534 Mission St. (at 21st)

This chic dinner destination transforms into a bright and lazy haven on weekend mornings, a perfect place to gather friends for a leisurely meal full of

indulgences. From the "weekend picnic" bites -- think tuna tartare and seared squid -- to inventive, flavor-packed egg dishes like Balsamic

Fried Eggs, every bite is a pleasant surprise (albeit with a hefty price tag). Also, don't overlook the inspired cocktail menu; the bartenders are pros, and you'll never have another Bloody Mary like their Persian variety.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
