Our friend Jack asked us for a current list of knockout San Francisco restaurants. We do get out there periodically, and we’re fussy about where we eat (special thanks to Michele for her discerning input). So the thought arose: why not share this list with the faithful, patient readers of semi-dormant Boulder Reporter. Here it is. Valuable!
