an Francisco is not a place that wants to do anything like the rest of the world. We are the rebels, the dreamers and the rule breakers. Even our weather patterns don’t follow the status quo. While New Yorkers and Midwesterners are dying in the summer heat, San Francisco takes comfort in the thick blanket of fog that returns to us most summer nights, which is affectionately named Karl the Fog and has its own Twitter account (@KarlTheFog). It is this playful weather system that keeps both locals and visitors on their toes. “Always bring a sweater!” should be our city’s motto. We hope you enjoy the cool breeze rolling off the Golden Gate Bridge and the still mornings in the Presidio.

For a real Tuscan meal of made-in-house pasta like Strozzapreti Carbonara, or roasted chicken with lemon, arugula and raisins, complete with a bottle of Chianti, look for the intimate Il Grillo. There are no street numbers, no neon signs, and no billboards in this toy-like town, so make your way through the romantic alleyways lined with old trees and flower beds.
Located inside the historic Pine Inn, Il Fornaio will delight you with a changing menu of regional specialties from different parts of Italy. Don’t forget to take pictures in the hotel lobby decorated in posh 19th-century style. Pine Inn was the first hotel built in Carmelby-the-Sea in 1889 on a pine-lined street, and still carries the charm of la Belle Époque.

PARTING SHOT
Fourth of July Fireworks San Francisco loves to celebrate with over-the-top experiences. One of the best spectaculars is the epic fireworks show on the Fourth of July over the Bay. It is a beautifully choreographed display of colorful lights with the city skyline and Golden Gate Bridge as the backdrop.
