San Francisco’s 14 Best Tourist Traps | Eater SF

"The sweet smell of vanilla, sesame, and butter lures tourists to this small alley in Chinatown to watch workers make 10,000 fortune cookies a day (and pass out hot samples). You can customize your own fortunes, making a great souvenir for tourists and non-tourists alike, and you might learn a thing or two about history while you’re at it. Fortune cookies were essentially invented in San Francisco, made to be served at the Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Gate Park in 1918, but later picked up by San Francisco’s Chinese restaurants." - Dianne de Guzman
