Sarah’s Top San Francisco Spots
San Francisco is one of the most undeniably gorgeous cities on the West Coast, but with it’s steep hills, historic buildings and high density of attractions, even the most savvy travelers and shoppers can get lost in the fog. After a recent trip to the Bay, Sarah jotted down her favorite spots so you can be sure your time is fabulous from start to finish.
Restaurants
Cotogna is located in San Francisco's historic Jackson Square, and it’s rustic atmosphere is comforting after a long day of shopping and walking around. If you love Italian food, Cotogna is the spot for you; this stylish spot artfully combines both West Coast flavors and traditional Italian favorites. Only the best seasonal ingredients go into fantastic pastas, pizzas, antipasti and delicious seafood. Be sure to try the melt in your mouth “Gnocchi” potato pillows.

The details really matter, Margaret Elizabeth jewelry proves it. If you are in need of stylish accents for yourself, gifts for your friends and family. Margaret Elizabeth’s simple yet classic designs are to die for.
Home Interiors
Anyon Design is an exceptional home design boutique and gallery that combines both modern styles and vintage charm. If you’re in need for a home design inspiration, this spot will refresh your vision. The firm's owner, Lindsay, works personally with each client to come up with your dream home-scape when you’re finding it hard to put your finger on the details. Think big bay windows and West Coast charm meets modern minimalism.

Stay
The Four Seasons is right in the center of the all the buzz, close to all of the best shopping (and eating) spots, and a short walk to SFMOMA. The views? To die for. The setting sun over the Golden Gate Bridge from your hotel room is something you need to try on. If you’re an early bird, the coffee bar in the morning is a fantastic wake-up call.
Coffee
Jane Coffee not only brews Seattle’s Stumptown Coffee (so you know it must be good), you can snack on their positively delicious homemade (and gluten free) baked goods while sipping on your favorite coffee. Be sure to try their avocado smashed toast, and the toffee chocolate cookie if you’re feeling like a sweet treat.

Dogs
George is a pet store that will be a barking good time for both your 2 legged and 4 legged family members. George is by far the most design savvy and fashionable pet store we’ve ever laid eyes on, sure to cure your pooch (and you) of your fashion itch. You can fix your furry friend up with a custom couture collar or a delicious homemade treat.
