  1. i like sears  fine foods on union square

    but the st francis ice cream parlor on 24th and york streets is a great place for casual


  2. As usual Fogjazz gave you a great list!

    Here is my favorite:

    Judy’s on Chestnut at Scott- Huge omelets served with your choice of English muffin, home made blueberry muffin or pumpkin loaf [my favorite]. Order a side of potatoes to share, these are, bar none, the best home fried potatoes in the world.

  3. Fogjazz already listed a number of my favorite weekend brunch locales.  Another thing to try is dim sum.  Our favorite dim sum places are Ton Kiang, Gold Mountain, and Yank Sing.

  4. 1. Dottie's True Blue Cafe is the best of the best. You will wait in line in a grungy neighborhood... but it is so amazingly worth it. Specials that change every weekend include things like lemon ginger blueberry pancakes, eggs with savory sweet potato tart, and the best homemade melt-in-your-mouth coffee cakes in town. Just bring a newspaper and cup of coffee to make the waiting in line more pleasant.

    2. Walk down to Mijita in the Ferry Building. This is celebrity chef Traci de Jardin's salute to her Mexican grandmother's cuisine, and it is without a doubt the most creative, healthy and flavorful Mexican food in town. Her chilaquiles will definitely wake you up, but its also fun to try something different like albondigas soup, or a quesadilla Mijita, for breakfast. And don't forget the Mexican hot chocolate if its a foggy morning.

    3. Citizen Cake, near the Opera House and Symphony in Hayes Valley. A little pricier and a bit more nouvelle than the places listed above, but imagine what kind of brunch the best dessert bakers in town can come up with... and you'll be right. They make a dutch apple pancake that is memorable. Make a reservation fast, they fill up.

    4. Another place you will wait in line for a worthwhile experience is Mama's on Washington Square in North Beach, down near Fisherman's Wharf. Mile high pancakes loaded with fresh berries so beautiful it made the cover of Sunset magazine. Terrific benedicts, and the best classic monte christo sandwich in San Francisco.

    5. Last but not least, if you can get a reservation, the best upscale Sunday brunch in town is at Green's in Fort Mason. It's vegetarian, with foods all prepared from produce grown at the Green Gulch zen farming community in Marin, but the food is so amazingly good that even carnivores love it.

    Enjoy!
