Book Description
Are you the type of San Francisco visitor who will avoid Fisherman's Wharf like the plague? Do you scoff at the people in their rental cars lined up for several blocks just to drive down Lombard Street? Would you rather shop on Haight Street, dine on Valencia Street, go clubbing South of Market, and discover swingin' supper clubs? Then The Irreverent Guide to San Francisco is for you!

This is a hip little travel guide that will give you the lowdown on:

Hotels for writers in search of a muse

Where to dine if you like goofy decor and fabulous food

Sights off the beaten, camera-laden path

Where to find painted ladies, local exhibitionists (hey, we're talking about artists), and the spirit of John Coltrane

Where to find supper clubs with an attitude and clubs to dance the night away

From the Publisher
Irreverent Guides give you listings you won't find in any other travel guides, including:

Morbid Landmarks The last-call saloon crawl Beaching in the buff Recycled Regalia Goofatoriums Music Meccas Euro-style Lodgings
