18 Restaurants That Are Actually Worth Waiting In Line For - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"If you live in San Francisco, Nyum Bai has two waits: the one at the restaurant and the one in the ride to Oakland. But it’s one of those places that if a friend called us up and asked us to drop what we were doing to venture over, we’d hang up the phone in a dead sprint to their house. This is not only because that’s how much we’d want to go, but also so we can arguably have worked out enough to merit ordering more food. From the banana leaf salad to the pork belly Koh, we love everything here, so the running is very justified." - Will Kamensky
