Buzziness #5 Driving to San Francisco!

I always looking forward to going to Northern California in the fall!  We are headed to San Francisco and then to beautiful Napa for Thanksgiving.  Every time we go into the "city" we add cool restaurants/bars/spots to a list.  Below is our most recent finds.
