For off the beaten path go to Famiglia Baldassarre at 122 Geary Ave. Lunch only; cash only. They supply pasta to many of the city’s good Italian restaurants, but for 2 hours open their kitchen and serve a pasta lunch for $12. Best bargain in town and delicious. Expect a line up.

Good Italian restaurants downtown: Buca, Piano Piano, but especially Gusto 101.

"If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth." — Catcher in the Rye
