Nice review and story Carole! My last employed stint in The City was 1990–1995, when I co-managed the late Thom’s Natural Foods at 23rd and Geary.

Working AND living in the Richmond: 33rd and Cabrillo St. gave me great incentive to NEVER go downtown and of course South of Market was not yet developed. We found some wonderful Richmond restaurants, and my Vietnamese-American neighbor Michelle introduced me to several special Viet-eateries on Clement St as well. Her fav was Mai’s: which Yelp now lists as #20 on their list of best Viet-Eateries. Fortunately my present City of Exile: Dixon, CA does have a Bart connection with their new B Line! Two and 1/2 hours to culinary perfection: or at least near that…
