Francis' list
The following are some suggested restaurants that we could visit in the future. We could rotate between Asian and Western cuisines and between low-priced, moderately-priced, and high-end restaurants to try out different restaurants and cuisines in the SF Bay Area to suit a variety of culinary tastes and palates.
