The exterior of the St. Regis Hotel in San Francisco is rather unassuming and discreet. In fact, unless you are actually looking for the hotel you can easily walk right past it. However, if you are lucky enough to step foot inside you will find that there is a whole other world waiting for you. The public areas on the ground floor are very sophisticated and chic without being pretentious. Think lots of zebrawood paneling, herringbone wood floor and lots of reflective surfaces like glass and mirror. Oh yeah, and who can forget the amazing glass chandelier above the bar. It's gorgeous. Overall the hotel is very comfortable and the bar service in the lobby is always impeccable. Mr. B and I try to jet set up to San Francisco at least once per month. We joke that it is our home away from home. The bar at the St. Regis is always on our list of places to stop by. It's an oasis in the middle of the city.
More on the St. Regis tomorrow. Stay tuned for something really special.

My drink of choice at the St. Regis: the "Ginger Pom Cosmo" made with ginger beer and pomegranate juice. It's no longer on their drink menu but just ask for it and they will be happy to make it for you. |

Don't feel like you have to come to the bar just for cocktails because the food is pretty amazing. The sweet corn chowder had me wanting more. |

The pork bun trio satisfied my craving for dim sum. These are fairly new to the menu and are incredibly delicious. |
