"We head to Macondray in Russian Hill whenever we want to feel like we’re on vacation (which lately, is pretty damn often). The lush, plant-filled interior is a lovely place to sit and sip on a blood orange margarita or a glass of wine - and they have parklet seating, too. To eat, you can order everything from a lobster roll or chips and dip to a fried chicken sandwich with pepper jack and jalapeño." - julia chen 1
