DINNER
"Another one of my favorite restaurants is Chez Panisse, across the
bay over in Berkeley. It's a legendary restaurant, the birthplace
of
California cuisine. The menu changes every night because they
only serve the freshest food, whatever's in season. Everything
comes from local farmers and ranchers, and it's all organic. If you
don't want the price-fixed, three- or four-course menu they serve
in the restaurant, you can also eat at the Chez Panisse Café, which
is more casual but still great."
SUNDAY
OUTING
"A perfect Sunday includes a walk or bike ride across the Golden
Gate Bridge. It's more than just the city's most famous landmark,
it's also one of the longest bridges in the world. The views from
the bridge are amazing. I also like to go golfing at The Ritz, Half
Moon Bay, or The Olympic Club. My dad and I like to golf together.
He's really good. I don't get to go that often, so my game could be
better."
LUNCH
"Su Hong in
Menlo Park, a half-hour outside of the city, is a
famous Chinese restaurant. I like the round table by the window
with the Lazy Susan, so we can do everything family-style. I love
their appetizers. We order pot stickers, spring rolls, Chinese
chicken salad, Mongolian beef, and fried rice with no vegetables
but with extra egg. And fried bananas for dessert."
ONE GREAT DAY IN SAN FRANCISCO
I recently did a photo shoot at Pac Bell Park in the outfield
bleachers. I had never really sat out there before, and that day I
realized what great seats they are. Watching a ballgame at our
park, you can't get a bad seat the way it's designed. But after
that day in the outfield, I realized just how great watching a game
out there would be. You get to see the whole field from such a
different perspective. From every seat, you can see the Bay Bridge
and the marina. One of the best things about
San Francisco is the
people, and you'll see them at Pac Bell. This city has some of the
greatest fans, as well as just down-to-earth people.
