Since then, San Francisco has come alive. We profiled his 2022 favorite spots and mapped them out in dozens of The Standard Guides, guiding readers to wine bars, independent bookstores, picnic spots, weed dispensaries, and many more places to eat, drink, and Shopping, guided to the playground in the city.
