Best-O-Burger in San Francisco’s Financial District - Meh

Friday, May 30th, 2008

San Francisco’s latest lunchtime hotspot in the Financh is doing land-office business so far, but the reviews are sort of meh.

Per Sue L.:

Burgers - reminiscent of White Castle
Fries - reminiscent of Burger King
Onion Strings - reminiscent of Asqew Grill
Hype - reminiscent of In & Out

It looks like a chain, but it’s not. People line up out the door during lunchtime, but it’s not that long a wait. The burgers, fries and onion ring string things taste good. A little pricey for what you get.

Maybe it’s for you, maybe it’s not.

The San Francisco Parking Lot Hustle Continues - Do Not Pay This Man!

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

It looks like the people at KPIX CBS-5 had it right last year when they repeatedly reported on the “parking hustle,” which involves people posing as lot attendants and pocketing some quick cash. Some parkers, such as Shane, get major bummed when they find out later on that they also need to pay the parking lot owner.

Why don’t people pay the actual real attendent? Because there isn’t one on duty in most cases. Why? Because that would cost money. But the folks over at Central Parking have found a way to warn drivers by posting a photo of one of the alleged imposters. How thoughtful.
