Here we go, start reading - this place is horrible.
IMO, San Francisco would be better off without this particular place up in Fisherman’s Wharf, but the Golden Gate Restaurant Association disagrees, oh well.
Of course nobody cares what I think so head on up there and check it out, if you want.
And be sure to try the “unnecessarily complicated Shrimp Louie“
If you want…
It’s 94133 zip code pride, for some reason:

The interior and exterior might be going to Hell, but nothing will stop its straight-outta-Toyota-City 1UZ-FE V8…
Here it is, from Kyoto, Japan, the first thing you see from the street:
Dude explicates, basically saying that he knows it’s funny but he thinks the white rat logo will bring good fortune:
“フロンティアのキャラクターをご紹介！
お店のロゴを考えている時、不意に浮かんだ 『 白ねずみ 』
ロゴに添えてみたら何だか笑えました。
私自身も ねずみ年ということもあり、
店の繁栄も願って 『 白ねずみ 』 をキャラクターに決めました”
OTOH, in San Francisco, rats are inside and outside of restaurants, but they are NEVER used as logos.
Just check out Fishermans Wharf around closing time. If you aren’t mugged, you’ll eventually see the rats.
And a few of them will be white…
The P&O* Cruises Aurora was just in town up near Fishermans Wharf at Pier 35 South for part of her 2012 World Cruise.
But three of the passengers on this ship got busted for blow, deets here.

Is this the statue that Angela Alioto wants to move to North Beach to be a part of a City-sanctioned Catholic shrine on Vallejo?
I think so.
Catholicism, catch it!

(Man, it must be tough running a cruise ship, with all the passengers having nothing to do on around-the-world trips except colluding on class-action lawsuits.)

Anyway, Bon Voyage, Aurora!
The 8th Annual Walk for Life West Coast will start at Civic Center this year.
Will organizers lie about attendance by simply adding 5000 people to the previous year’s estimate as is their custom? We’ll just have to wait and see. Somebody will document the crowd overestimating, but I don’t know if it will be me this year…

All the deets:
“Due to a scheduling conflict, the Walk for Life will be unable to follow its familiar route from Justin Herman Plaza and along San Francisco’s waterfront to Marina Green. Instead, we will be gathering at Civic Center Plaza at 11:00 am for the Info Fair to be followed by the rally at 12:30 pm. At 1:30 we will start walking down Market Street to Justin Herman Plaza. There will be no additional events at Justin Herman Plaza.
We are excited about this new opportunity and believe that this new venue will give us the chance to grow our numbers. More information to come so please sign up for our email blasts to keep informed of these important changes.
HOTEL UPDATE: We have sold out of the rooms at the San Francisco Marriott Fisherman’s Wharf Hotel. We were able to negotiate a discounted rate at the Kabuki Hotel in Japantown (very close to the Cathedral) for $139/night. For further options, gohere.
FLYERS: Color flyers are now availble for download. If you would like to receive copies of the flyers, please send us an email with your address and how many you would like. Help spread the word!
Confirmed speakers include: Lori Hoye, Dr. Vansen Wong, Rev. Clenard Childress and Jacquie Stalnaker.
Once again this year EWTN will be broadcasting the event live via satellite on TV andImmaculate Heart Radio will be broadcasting the event live on the radio.”
I’ll tell you, when you travel hither and yon and you tell people that you’re from San Francisco, what they’ll say in reply is that they visited the 415 and they want to know what kind of glue holds “those crazy rocks from Sausalito“ together.
I’m seriously.
Anyway, enjoy the reverse angle – from Marin towards San Francisco:

Balanced rocks – hurray!
