Lists: SF Chronicle's Top 100 Restaurants
I love lists. I write lists all the time. for buying groceries, things to eat, places to go (eat), people to see (while eating), things to grow (for eating), recipes to cook (then eat). Are you beginning to sense a theme?
One of my favorite things to do is read other people's lists. So today is a happy one because Michael Bauer's SF Chronicle Top 100 Restaurants just came out.
Some I agree with, some I do not.
