Frommer's Irreverent Guide To San Francisco by Matthew Richard Poole

Looking for a travel guide that goes where other guides fear to tread? One that rides roughshod over ad-copy puffery to smartly deliver the real scoop on a destination's sites and attractions? One that dares to be honest, hip, and fun? Look no more. Frommer's Irreverent Travel Guides are wickedly irreverent, unabashedly honest, and downright hilarious, and provide an insider's perspective on which attractions are overrated tourist traps and which are the secret gems that locals love. You'll get the lowdown on restaurants, lodging, and shopping, and even find out what the locals think of you. 'Like being taken around by a savvy local,' said the New York Times. 'Hipper and savvier than other guides,' concurred Diversion magazine. Never shy about confronting the issues, the Irreverents are guides to real travel in the real world. It's easy to leave your heart in one of America's most beautiful and visited cities, but you don't have to follow the crowds to do it. Go behind the scenes with Frommer's Irreverent Guide to San Francisco and experience the city as the local do. You'll discover how to get into the open morning rehearsals at the San Francisco Symphony, how to hop a cable car without waiting in line, and how to wrangle a seat at some of the city's best restaurants without reservations. You'll learn that uttering the word 'Frisco' can actually make a local loco, and how to endear yourself to San Francisco cabbies. Frommer's Irreverent Guide to San Francisco give you all that, plus the inside scoop on the tastiest meals, the smartest clubs, and the coziest love nests.
