EAT LIKE A LOCAL
The San Francisco table — what to order and where the locals point.
Zuni Café
The roast chicken for two with bread salad, ordered an hour ahead, in a wedge-shaped room on Market since 1979.
Swan Oyster Depot
Eighteen stools at a marble counter on Polk since 1912. Cash, crab, and a queue that starts before it opens.

Tartine Bakery
The morning bun and the country loaf that reset American baking. Guerrero Street, expect a queue.
