If you can do spicy, one of my favorite local joints is Mama Ji’s in the Castro. It’s Szechuan and one of their star dishes is fried fish with Szechuan peppercorns (the numbing kind). Good beer list as well.

The only thing I’d like to add that hasn’t already been mentioned is that depending on how hot the real estate market is in your area, realtors may push the idea of you waiving contingencies when making offers. There are some contingencies that are safer to waive in some cases, like the appraisal contingency (if you’re sure the home will appraise for the amount of the loan at a bare minimum). However, do not waive inspections. If you have the option to pay a little more up front to do more detailed inspections, you should do so. You might end up out a few hundred bucks, but that’s better than tens or hundreds of thousands if you get a house that needs surprise sewer or foundational work.
I’m a VFX artist who’s been waiting for the tides to turn on this for well over a decade.
It’s difficult, highly skilled work, the hours are terrible, there’s zero job security, and artists often don’t even get their names in the credits. Marvel is one of the most notorious clients out there for last-second changes, unreasonable asks, and a lack of clear and consistent direction.
This push was a long time coming and I hope other studios follow suit. The IATSE has been trying for as long as I can remember and I’m really excited they finally made an inroad.
