I think I spend more time at the Ferry Building by myself than with other people. While it's fun to grab lunch and a drink with someone, I love being able to explore places like this leisurely and at my own pace. I usually start by window shopping at Sur La Table and work my way down the main hall stopping by each section to sample olive oil, cheese, etc. and finally end up at Blue Bottle. BEST ICED COFFEE EVER. It was nice to pick up a cup and sit down at the bar while watching people walk by.
Speaking of people watching, when I was sitting at Blue Bottle I noticed a pretty girl in line at Miette wearing a really cute outfit featuring a Fjallraven backpack. When I finished my drink a couple minutes I decided to get some macarons to go (rose and vanilla for anyone who's curious) so I wandered over and got in line. While I snapped these pictures to kill time I was surprised by a tap on the shoulder, it was that same girl I had noticed before: turns out she recognized me because of this blog! So awesome. If you're reading this, Mimi, it was great meeting you!

I do the same! I enjoy it more when I am exploring my city solo. I get first picks on cafe's, boutiques I want to visit and enjoy lunch w/o having to answer to anyone. Very therapeutic! I am visiting SF in August and cannot wait to visit those places. :)

I love staying by myself sometimes too.
My favourite city has always been London (even if I'm ItalianA and here there are amazing places/buildings/food) but since I started reading your blog i felt in love with San Francisco! Its colors, places (everything) seem nice and amazing and I really hope to visit it one day! Or maybe move there! oohh I'm dreaming... U_U
waiting for a new post

I usually only stop at the Ferry Market building when I'm riding my bike with someone else, and I always think, "I should really come here when I'm not strapped down with biking gear." Maybe I'll go next weekend--I'd love to just sit at the water and people watch.
These pictures are beautiful...and delicious looking! mmm!
very sweet pix. I think it's pretty cool and shows confidence if ppl can also hang out all by themselves "in public" and don't always have to call their girlfriends to go to the next toilet or sth;)

AW, the lue Bottle coffee shop looks so nice! :)
i visited this place a month ago! :) i love the samples especially olive oil! ughh so in heaven. i saw macrons, but i was hesitant because of the prices so i grabbed gelato instead :)
oh my goodness Miette looks amazing!
Such a sweet story about the girl recognizing you from your blog, that must feel pretty ace :)
Also, i'm loving the design of the coffee cup, it's great that they have their own logo printed on it instead of just a regular brown coffee cup..

getting lunch by myself and people watching is one of my favorite things to do. i haven't done it since i've been married though! sad. haha.
i always think it'd be so neat to meet some of my blogger stalks/friends.
tis always better to KNOW a person then to just read about them.

I love watching people as well and always feel embarrassed when they notice it... :) I like the shop sign of miette, it's so cute.
Love, Lini

That looks like an amazing little coffee shop! I love observing peoples outfits and mannerisms but I would never have the guts to approach them and tell them I read their blog. I'd feel like such a stalker, but thats just me :P

Someone from Cali sent me a birthday care package full of treats from Miette, which I had never heard of before. Their graham crackers are SO good. Buttery and crunchy..mmm...
This place looks very cool, there are so many of these where I live!

The hazelnut macarons are to die for there! I usually hit up the Hayes Valley one. There's Blue Bottle there too! Best of both worlds I guess!

Looks delicious
