Uhh..yeah, sorry for the weird title...those are the words I think of when I think Tiffany's :) lol...so, this location that they have here is perfect for Tiffany's because it's near Louis Vuitton, Coach, and other designer labels. I recently convinced my parents to buy me the "Return to Tiffany's" tag necklace from here, and I haven't taken it off since. I don't think I treat anything else better than I do this necklace (JOKE, just kidding ;). So, the store has a lot of security guards, obviously, and when you go in, all the salespeople ask if you need help. They're nice in that way, and they help you try on everything, answer all your quetions. I love sparkly silver, and the Tiffany's prices are worth it (I hope). Can't wait to get the bracelet.
:) Enjoy.

I was surprised when I was looking through my list of reviews, and discovered that I hadn't reviewed my favorite indian restaurant in the whole world. THIS PLACE IS SO GOOOOOOD.
So, the one thing that I ALWAYS order when I come here is chicken masala (spelling?), which is their chicken in a creamy, buttery, red sauce. I eat it with their naan (I love the garlic and onion. and the plain's delicious too if you don't want to be full), and I can never get enough of it. I also love the biryani which I think is their eggplant dish, and it is also DELICIOUS. I also order rice. That's my typical meal whenever I go to Chutney's. BEWARE: You must love spices if you want to dine here. You will enjoy it more. Otherwise, there's not enough water in the world to satisfy your mouth after you taste their food. They have free chai, also, which I don't really enjoy, but it's there :). The service is fast, the food is better. This place is a MUST VISIT. I LOVE IT.
p.s. even its location (the tenderloin) doesn't matter. you HAVE to visit it.
:) enjoy.

A few weeks ago, I was walking on Broadway with my friends, looking for a good place for waxing. I just happened to walk into this salon because there was a lady outside handing out flyers with 50% off discounts for students. Of course, I said yes.
We all went in, and my friends got a 2 for 1 manicure and pedicure, and I went in for waxing. The lady was super soothing (I know that sounds weird LOL..but that's exactly how it felt), and calming. Therefore, my wax didn't hurt at all, (she talked me through the whole thing). Afterwards, she put some cooling lotion on top (not before asking me if I was allergic, which is a big plus in my book). I will always come back to this place for waxing (did I forget to mention that the hair didn't grow back for a long time?), and I definitely appreciate the student discounts.

Ever since I tasted "boba" at my friend's party a few years ago, I've been addicted. I always introduce it to my other friends who haven't had the pleasure of tasting it, either.
Well, let me tell you that I was ECSTATIC when I discovered this place. It's fairly new, although I'm pretty sure they have locations elsewhere. It's this quaint little "cafe" next to the Burlingame Hotel and overshadowed by Sephora.
They serve waffles (chocolate, green tea, etc..) and a wide selection of teas and smoothies. I think to add tapioca pearls, it's only 75 cents more. This is such a cute little, different place to hang out with friends after school. There's like two little tables inside where you can sip your tapioca and chill. The staff are SUPER nice, and the atmosphere is overall great.

Ever since I was a little kid, I used to come to Cafe Greco with my parents. I always ordered their hot chocolate (they made it just right-- it didn't burn my taste buds and it wasn't cold like chocolate milk), and a pastry to go along with it (either a tart with delicious, buttery crust, or an almond biscotti, or whatever they had that looked good--which is basically everything). My parents would order coffee and even today, this is their favorite coffee (they make it with Illy brand coffee, which is supposedly really good, but I don't drink coffee..so, yeah.). Anyways, this is a great place to discover in San Francisco (it's in North Beach, I'm pretty sure...). It's awesome to socialize in and bring your friends, or you can bring your laptop, and just work peacefully. Obviously, in North Beach they have a lot of restaurants, so you can have dinner, then come to Greco for a cappucino or whatever. A must visit!

So, a while ago, I was surprised to receive a $100 gift card to this place from Judy's Book. (I wrote the most reviews in a day, and they had a raffle, I think). Anyways, I've been looking at the reviews on here to see how the place was and if it was worth going up there. There were equal numbers of positive and negative comments, so I just decided "what the heck, i'll just try it". I was expecting a family style restaurant like Ihop's or something, but instead, I see a HUGE fancy looking place. We went at about 10:00 and there were about 10 other people waiting. They gave us a beeper, and told us 15 to 30 minutes wait, but the time went by SUPER fast. The people who work there are really nice, and take you to your table. I was suprised at how big it was. My table ordered some fried calamari (DELICIOUS), vietnamese spring rolls (i thought they were ok), Bistro Shrimp Pasta for me (DELICIOUS, PLUS i had some leftovers for lunch the next day. great!), Caesar Salad for my dad (okay), grilled Mahi for my mom with fries (didn't taste the fish, but the fries were great). I also ordered the tropical smoothie which came decked with fresh fruit on top. It was probably one of the best smoothies ever. The portions, like everyone else said, are HUGE, so it's good to share. We ordered two slices of cheesecake for dessert to share, which we didn't really get to enjoy since we were so full, but nevertheless, it was delicious! So this is a good place to dress up and go out to once in a while. the food is too rich for a once a week outing, but it's a nice place.

So, the other day, I was hanging out with my friend in downtown San Mateo. Knowing the sneaker freak that I am, she takes me to this store that I've never been to called Transit. It's a cute little store with original tees, shoes, and other things. The owner there is really chill, and will help you with sizes, etc...It kind of reminded me of a smaller version of Urban Outfitters, but less dressy. I LOVE their tees with sayings like: Bay Area in ebay letters, SF with LV style monograms, Holler with an owl, Boo-yah, One Love, etc...It's a pretty cool store..and they have a guy's version on the other side, with the HOTTEST kicks...I had to get out of there before I bought out everything. But regarding the prices, they're not very low, but they're definetely worth the quality and value. and that's what matters! they also have a 50% off bin in the front of the store with t-shirts. Oh, and they also sell brand names like Paul Frank.
Excellent store! must check it out.

Out of all the times that I've been to Pancho Villa's, I've only had the burritos, so I can't really comment on their other choices. I actually just went this weekend to eat here with my friend :). The line is usually long at Pancho's since it's a popular taqueria, but it goes by super fast, especially while looking at the things they have hung up on the wall, and trying to figure out what you want to order (they have a large selection including a vegetarian menu and a seafood menu). I usually order the deluxe burrito with chicken. The only thing that I don't like about their burritos which I haven't seen any place else is that they include PEAS and CARROTS inside...which is kind of peculiar. You can hardly taste them, but I always forget to tell them to leave it out. Since I don't want carrots OR peas in my burrito. I LOVE the customer service here (at least at the register, anyways). The guys are nice, and when you get your food to go, they always include lots of extra chips. I've also ordered the freshly squeezed juices here, and they're delicious! I love the pineapple juice --almost as good as a pina colada in Mexico :). I also love their little salsa bar, which is so fresh and clean! great place overall!

Dr. Kasuga isn't actually MY doctor, but I was assigned to shadow him for school. I'm interested in the medical field, so I asked my counselor if I could go see a pediatrician in their job, and she gave me Dr. Kasuga's addresss to go to.
He is A REALLY nice person, and seems to really know his job. I watched him work with his patients, and he's very good with babies.
Dr Kasuga is awesome!

Sometimes when it's raining or when nobody feels like cooking, my family likes to order in. One day we decided to try Nick's Pizzeria (found the menu in the yellow pages). It was a restaurant, but THEY DELIVERED. I love when there are places that deliver things besides pizza!
So, we ordered cheeseburgers which come with your choice of fries, salad, or pasta salad. The lady told me I was the only delivery so my food would come fast (I LOVE THAT! :)...let me tell you, that before we even finished setting the table, our burgers came. I love fast service.
Afterwards, whenever we crave burgers we call Nick's, and not many other people order in from them, so we always get our food FAST. I tried their cheese steak sandwich last time, but I still say nothing beats Great Steak and Potato Company in that area.
GREAT FOOD, AT NICKS!
