Gastrorgasms: When Food Is Better Than Sex

Usually we give food and sex just about equal standing on the pleasure-o-meter. After all, great sex is yummy and great food is undeniably sexy. But sometimes, food wins out and, uh, takes the proverbial cake. Here, seven locals dish on where they go for foods that hit the (G) spot.

Plan-B Brunch

You wouldn't think you'd need a backup plan for an outing as jaunty as brunch, but when paper-perusing table-hogs make waits interminable, you'll want another option--and it better be close. Here are four of the city's best brunch spots, each coupled with a nearby alternative where the food is stellar and you'll get a table in short order.

Light My Fire: Best Grilling in the City

Summer is here and that means it's grillin' time. Whether you want someone else to cook it for you, (or at least do the prep, a la Korean barbecue), or if you're into being involved in every step from choosing the perfect outdoor spot to flipping each burger, we've got you covered. So get out there and start fanning those flames!

These nouveau fro-yo shops are capturing real estate—and the raves of health-conscious, dessert-loving San Franciscans—in neighborhoods across the city. I ventured far and wide (even into two malls!) to give my fellow fro-yo fans the scoop on where to find the best of this tangy, nonfat treat.

Absinthe Makes the Heart Grow Fonder: SF's Best Absinthe Cocktails

After years of absence from the cocktail scene, absinthe is making a huge comeback. No longer touted as a craze inducing hallucinogenic, this formerly banned botanical spirit has slowly made its way from the contraband suitcases of European tourists to the top shelves of San Francisco mixologists. Until the anise-flavored darling is being poured at your corner bar, here are some of our favorite spots serving this gem.
