I'm not saying you should do this, but my friend stole a pillow from the XYZ Bar. They have awesome pillows. This one looked like an eggplant. I do not advocate pillow steeling, nor do I condone spoon filching for that matter (spoons have nothing to do with this posting, but I know this is prevalent so I'm just stating my position, for the record). Really though, I use the cool eggplant pillow to make a point, to extrapolate from there to suggest that not only does this bar have cool eggplant pillows to steal, but other vegetable pillows too, all worthy of becoming living room bounty of your very own.

People like this place because you can find clothes that were originally overpriced beyond all sense of reason and decency discounted to prices that are only overpriced to the extent that most regular crappy new clothes still sell for a gazillion times more than the actual cost of the thrid world slave labor production that makes them. I guess if I had a job and needed a really boring shirt that didn't come from a thrift shop, this would be a good place to go. Or a lame tie. Or some wrinkle free pants. All things that really gets my juices flowing, I'm sure you can tell. Maybe they're catering to a different demographic.

Megasuperdupermaniacal computer chain that runs hot sales on the crap you need to keep your computing life happy and healthy. Free internet terminals upstairs are the best feature about this place, but if you're in need, the downstairs has one of the better selections of all around not-free computer crap that can save you a lot of time running around town to different place, since most likely they'll have everything you need here.

There seems to be a recent trend of filling vacant commercial space with excess inventory. Use what would be otherwise empty space to hock what would otherwise be sitting in a warehouse or tossed into the ocean. Gaint Book Sale is one such place. If you can find a book here you're in luck, because everything's deeply discounted. But you've got to want last year's political books or, did you know one of the gigs from Growing Up Gotti has a memoir/diet book? You can get that one dirt cheap. Heck, I bet they'd even do volume discounts if you asked.

Haven't been to the actual museum yet, but I have spent ample time in the adjacent gift shop/book store where they have an eclectic selection of all the latest in cutting edge comics and graphic novels. Well, I'm not an aficionado, so I don't know how comprehensive the collection is. But what's there is all interesting and makes for a cool place to go and buy a unique gift, especially for people who don't consider themselves comics junkies, who'll be duly impressed by the artfulness of recent graphic publications.

This place is a total score for Potrero Hill folks. A place you run into and grab a slice. A hearty slice piled with all sorts of fancy toppings. The pizza itself always seems to run on the bready/mushy side, but blanketing it with flavorful toppings turns it more into a salad, so you can let slide the lackluster bread/sauce/cheese side of things.

Yes, the Cheese Board rocks. Especially for cheese and bread. But their pizza? I know it's supposed to be different, no sauce and all, but when they were so gracious to cater a gig I was playing,...
Yes, the Cheese Board rocks. Especially for cheese and bread. But their pizza? I know it's supposed to be different, no sauce and all, but when they were so gracious to cater a gig I was playing, they dropped a whole bunch of those vaunted pizzas on us and even though we were ravenously hungry and everyone had been drooling over the knowledge that these pizzas were on the way, hardly anyone even got past the first piece. That's because our jaws were barely strong enough to chew the tenacious crust. The cheese blend on the top tasted sooo delicious, but you couldn't enjoy it or make a meal out of it. It was a frustrating experience to say the least. Should I give the place another chance? Everyone says they love it, but there's no excuse for serving up something near inedible. Even the worst pizza in this city I can eat...

When we talk about expanding our minds beyond the dominant paradigm, I like to think of breakfast. If you can get beyond the idea that breakfast has to be eaten in the morning, than you're on the cusp of a whole new mindset, a life more brilliant. All day breakfast joints are like a portal into that dimension. Of course, their power manifests the later it gets in the day, but even still, I guess sometimes you've got to eat breakfast before noon. Eddie's Café is one such threshold. Good, solid breakfast, all the live long day. Of course, if you really want to be next level, you'll make pancakes and omelets AT HOME during typical dinnertime... wow.

I've always found the Bay Area's Ethiopian offerings lackluster at best. When I've lived in other cities, it's been a stable cuisine with several trusty restaurants in my dining portfolio. Not so much here, and I've tried the places that seem to be favorites. Proof that I'm not just a restaurant poopy pants (I do miss my favorite place in D.C., but swear, I'm open to new experiences) arrived in the form of Club Waziema. This is a strange place, a divey sports bar with funky wall paper, amateurish art, and a very out-of-place pool table. There's also a tiny, closet of a kitchen where a grandmotherish lady cooks up perfect vegetarian Ethiopian fare. They have all-you-can-eat nights that are a total bargain, just be prepared to wait since the food takes its time…

I'm from New England, land of Dunkin' Donuts. I don't think anyone thinks Dunky's makes great donuts. Everyone is addicted to the coffee. And it goes along to grab a few rings to munch and dunk on the way to work. People like donuts. But no one gushes over how these particular baked offerings are just so much the best. There was soooo much hubbub about Krispy Kreme coming to New England. How they were going to show us what a real donut was. Well, as previously stated, Krispy Kreme is good... because donuts are inherently good. And when they're fresh, they are super yum. But KK 'aint nothing to write home about. You want to justify breaking your diet by eating donuts? Join the KK Kult and elevate their donuts to some lofty place beyond donut, but the rest of us who aren't looking to justify our donut eating can see through this flimsy deification.
