I think "tourist place" is a way of saying that it's no longer hip. A tourist place is the Rainforest Cafe.

Is is open again? It was closed for a while due to flooding or something. It's my favorite quick dinner spot if I'm seeing a show in that area.

THis. The Slanted Door was the first fusion restaurant that was ever mentioned to me when I first moved here. Its no longer cool to SF residents because its no longer niche and unique, and they cant brag about being in the know of a hip little ethnic place.
I attract these situations (or Ed Harris is ******* with my head), so the names are irrelevant as your experience will be no doubt yelp-worthy. Could be the bammer weed, too. lefty
Can someone give some some recommendations on must do things in SF? Including some cheap but unique restaurants? I'm headed to SF in a few weeks and know absolutely nothing about the city. I prefer to stay away from touristy spots (for example Navy Pier here in Chicago).
You are not alone. I KNOW I hate San Francisco : )
I moved to the Castro / Mission area and I couldn't get over how ugly the city is up close and over priced. It does have a few really cool landmarks which are always crowded with tourists. Seattle is much more beautiful and has many more things to do that are affordable and easy to access. Having a dog that requires lots of walks and being car-less I am outside walking and exploring all of the time. You can see everything SFO has to offer in about a week. There are really no cool neighborhoods to speak of compared to Seattle. I couldn't help but notice how little green space there is and how most of the sidewalks are concreted in all the way up to the buildings. The people are entitled and snobby overall thinking they have found "Shangri la" The sidewalks stink, the people are always trying to convince you what a wonderful place it is to justify what they paid for their home or rent for their apartment. Most so called adults live with several roommates just so they can live in the city. I know several gay guys who sponge off old ladies and live in their spare bedrooms for a discounted rent to be their friends / renters. Their is a very odd dynamic with the lifestyle in SFO. I've been fortunate to live where I want to as a travel nurse and I have to say San Francisco is the least welcoming, dirtiest, smelliest, noisiest, snobbiest, most expensive city I've lived in. It is romantic from afar but the mirage quickly evaporates once you live there.
