Yey, we finally have some people hating Bush so much that they took Bush Street Signs!

Vandalism or Patriotic?

We will let you decide on that.

San Francisco officials said missing street signs for Bush Street may be a result of dissatisfaction with the current U.S. president.

Residents said signs are missing from the intersections of Bush and Kearny Streets, and Bush and Montgomery, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Thursday.

“I have helped numerous tourists (and locals) trying to find Bush Street (and Montgomery), but they had no idea where they were because there was no street sign,” legal secretary Katherine Small said.

The best seafood at Fisherman’s Wharf has to be Nick’s Lighthouse. It’s a pretty small restaurant but a lot of the locals like the seafood there as they serve you some real fresh crabs and some great beer.
(I did also go to Alioto’s as you can see in the picture, their food is okay but not good enough for the price you pay.)

If you love seafood and you are in Fisherman’s Wharf, you need go straight to this place and ignore all others. Especially if you are visiting San Francisco, you need to check this place out.

It’s not cheap though, it’s still around $50 per person for a good meal and some beer.

There are couple other super-pricey fancy restaurants around with a good ocean view, but they can hardly beat the food you will find at Nick’s Lighthouse.

This is the place my parents and I celebrate any of our important days. (Now, I did tell you a “real” secret about San Francisco.)

I’d say this place is so good, it’s actually the best seafood restaurant in San Francisco Bay Area for crabs. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. best seafood restaurant, crabs, Eating Out, fancy restaurants, fisherman, Fisherman's Wharf, Getting Around, important days, lighthouse, locals, ocean view, parents, san francisco bay, san-francisco-bay-area, visiting san francisco

You will see Boudin Sourdough eatery somewhere in Fisherman’s Wharf. (They got 2 location I believe…)

They make some really funky sourdough breads such as the alligator and the turtle that you can see in the above picture.

But what they really offer is the best clam chowder sourdough bread bowl in Fisherman’s Wharf. The price is about $6.99 per bread bowl of clam chowder and I highly suggest you empty your stomach to get the full taste of the Clam Chowder.

What do I mean? Well, you need to the clam chowder soup and also finish the bread bowl itself. Otherwise, you are wasting it. So make sure you are really really hungry, so you can finish up a calorie-filling traditional San Francisco Clam Chowder.

Here’s a picture of Clam Chowder I had today at Boudin’s bakery:

Looks delicious doesn’t it? Sourdough is the best in San Francisco in the world today ever since the days of GoldRush where Californians refined it over the years to bring the locals and the tourists a slight sour and sweet taste of the bread.

If you are over at Pier 39, you can also check out another “cheap” sourdough place, which is pretty good:

Now, I’d say almost all the clam chowder is great anywhere at Fisherman’s Wharf. But do try at least one place as you will regret it if you don’t eat couple bowls of that soup on your trip. alligator, bakery, bowls, bread bowl, californians, clam chowder soup, Eating Out, fisherman, Fisherman's Wharf, Getting Around, goldrush, locals, pier 39, san-francisco, sourdough bread, sourdough breads, stomach, sweet taste, tourists, turtle
