During a recent business trip, I got back to my hotel room after a long day and I was tired and starving. My pajamas were calling my name and I just didn't want to venture outside into the unknown. Sound about right?

Well, if I had been in San Francisco, the solution would have been a no-brainer. Food delivery apps are all the rage right now and several delivery service options are available to make your life easier.

![San Francisco Best Cheap Restaurants](https://info.personalityhotels.com/hs-fs/hub/132862/file-330644531.jpg)

Everyone likes a good deal, especially when traveling. These top 5 spots that we love are within walking distance to your San Francisco Personality Hotel, and will leave you and your wallet happy:

1. [Pearl's Deluxe Burgers](http://www.pearlsdeluxe.com/)

When the burger craving hits, head to Pearl's. It's hard to go wrong here and with some many meat options and add-ons, pretty much anyone will leave feeling full and happy. Not to mention they serve melt-in-your-mouth milkshakes, and several different types of french fries. Sweet potato fries? Yes, please! *Good for lunch or dinner.* *708 Post St.*

2. [Kare-Ken](http://www.kare-ken.com/)

Only open in the evenings, Kare-Ken serves up a classic Japanese katsu curry. This place is small, but dishes up hearty comfort food and friendly service. Their made-from-scratch curry can be served mild or hot and topped with extras like a boiled egg, corn, fried seasonal veggies, and tempura onion rings. You can always add more meat, sauce, or rice to up-size the portions. The late-night (after 10pm) menu flaunts a beef curry dog and a katsu curry sandwich. *552 Jones St.*

3. [Bio](http://www.biologiquesf.com/)

A cozy gem tucked in the middle of Union Square, Bio caters to those who eat a gluten-free or vegan diet. You'll find gluten-free quiche and vegan vegetable soups and salads. But don't worry, bacon lovers will still be pleased here - the prosciutto, fig, and gruyere sandwich always hits the spot. With both savory and sweet options, and hot and cold beverages (they even make their own Kombucha) Bio is a one-stop-shop ideal for breakfast or lunch. *75 O'Farrell St.*

4. [Bite](http://www.sfbite.net/)

Sandwich lovers should look no further. This order-at-the-counter deli never disappoints. Build your own sandwich or order a specialty, like the Gouda Good - a heavenly combination of their rotisserie chicken with Gouda cheese and special pepperhouse sauces on Dutch crunch bread. Order a salad, or a rotisserie chicken with a side dish for a bread-less, but still delicious, alternative. *Open-late.* *912 Sutter St.*

5. [Golden Coffee Shop](http://www.yelp.com/biz/golden-coffee-shop-san-francisco)

With plenty of breakfast options, this mom and pop diner will satisfy the most important meal of the day. Fuel for a day of sight-seeing or to cure last night's hangover, jump-start your day with classic scrambled eggs with corned beef, hash browns and toast, or a stack of fluffy pancakes. Oh, and they also serve Chinese food after 11am. We'll let you be the judge of that. *Cash only. **901 Sutter St.*

Have you ever had a boss who lacked style and class? Probably at some point or another, we could all answer yes. But a true leader should have it all, don't you think? Well, enter Yvonne Lembi-Detert. She fearlessly leads our team and looks totally chic while doing it. Her closet must look like something out of *Sex and the City*. Well maybe a little less fur because this is California, afterall. 

Curious to know more about what we'd find in her closet, we asked Yvonne about her top 5 places to shop in San Francisco. And since every shopping trip should be followed with a reward, we also asked about her top places to dine. Here's what our CEO had to say...

Fashion:

1. Kurt Geiger for fun shoes
2. Vince for urban everyday wear
3. All Saints for funky and edgy eye apparel 
4. Barney’s for unique designer must-haves
5. Neiman Marcus for hangbags and classic pieces

Dining:

1. [Gitane](http://www.gitanerestaurant.com/http://) for fabulous cocktails and mashed peas
2. [Le Colonial](http://www.lecolonialsf.com/) for its ambiance and many floor levels of entertainment while dining
3. [54 Mint](http://www.54mint.com/) especially when its truffle season
4. [Colibri](http://colibrimexicanbistro.net/) for the very best guacamole and ceviche
5. [Bouche](http://www.bouchesf.com/) for its tiny kitchen creating incredible culinary bites

![Sauce Boys](https://info.personalityhotels.com/hs-fs/hub/132862/file-30190929.jpg)

San Francisco is well known for it’s cuisine scene and all the great restaurants you can find in the city, this week we wanted to introduce you to one of our Union Square neighbors, [**Sauce Belden Lane**.](http://www.saucesf.com) Today we go behind the scenes and talk to the three brothers that own Sauce,  **Nathan, Matt and Trip Hosley.**

The “Sauce Boys” opened their first venue, in 2004 in Hayes Valley, and a year later they opened a bar “Shine” at 1337 Mission. Following the success of their restaurant in Hayes Valley, they decided to open a second "Sauce” restaurant on Belden Alley in 2012. The drinks are delicious, the food is pure comfort and they are even open until 1AM. Finally a place open late night! 

Inspired by the Proust Questionnaire, here is a set of 10 questions that we like to ask local Personalities, to get to know them a little better.   

##### PH: What is your favorite food and drink in San Francisco?

**Trip:** I am addicted to our sausage cheese bread, it’s one of my favorite things, otherwise it would be Tony’s Pizza in North Beach and a Trumer Pilsner.

**Nathan:** If we stay inside of Sauce my favorite is Carpaccio and right now outside would be the Chicken Wings at Kezar Pub, it changes a lot... my favorite drink would be any Whiskey.

**Matt:** For me inside of Sauce I would have to go with the Burger, I just love the Burger and outside I would go for Peppered Steak and a Manhattan at the Brazen Head.

##### PH: What is the place you always go to in SF?

**Trip:** I love Dolores Park.

**Nathan:** The Academy of Sciences, because my kids love it and I love it, it’s fun.

**Matt:** One of my favorite spots in town is AT&T Park, love the baseball park, love to catch a day game and I love the surroundings.

![Think of the story](https://info.personalityhotels.com/hs-fs/hub/132862/file-30274104.jpg?width=272&height=204&name=file-30274104.jpg)

##### PH: What is your favorite street?

**Hosley Brothers:** GOUGH STREET! Hayes Valley. That’s our neighborhood. We have been there 10 years. 

##### PH: What do you most appreciate in SF?

**Trip: **I like the diversity, there is always crazy things going on, People watching is always interesting in SF.

**Nathan:** I love the weather here, I lived in many different places and I love that here its mild, it’s not going to be 114 when I wake up in the morning!

**Matt:** The availability of good food and good wine, everybody takes it for granted here. The majority of the places you go to always serve high quality product and everything is always fresh, whether you get a sandwich or steak.  When you do get out of San Francisco, it becomes evident that you really live in the middle of a culture that really takes food and wine seriously.

##### PH: What is your favorite occupation in SF?

**Trip:** My favorite occupation has always been bar tending.

**Nathan:** If not running my own restaurant, I would be running somebody else’s.

**Matt:** I’m trying to think, race car driver or boat captain maybe?

##### PH: What is your idea of happiness?

**Matt:** Having enough money to be comfortable and having the people I love around me to enjoy.

**Trip:** Cool glass of wine with my wife and my family.

**Nathan:** Anytime I am spending with my family. 

##### PH: If not yourself, who would you be?

**Nathan:** I would be a philanthropist, giving money out all day long, doing fun and cool projects all the time.

**Matt:** I think I’d be a helicopter pilot, a ski helicopter pilot so I could just hit the best trails all day long.

**Trip:** I’ll be the first California Powerball winner and then I’d do both of those things!

##### PH: What is the natural talent you would like to be gifted with?

**Trip:** The ability to play an instrument.

**Nathan:** If I could teleport that would be pretty awesome!

**Matt:** I would like to remember names better.

##### PH: What is your present state of mind?

**Nathan:** Eager

**Matt:** Happy, content.

**Trip:** I am a little overwhelmed these days.

##### PH: What is your favorite Motto?

**Trip:** Mine is “think of the story”, whenever you are facing an opportunity in life think what choice will make a better story later.

**Matt:** I would say “When you wake up, get up and when you get up, do something”.

**Nathan:** “Whatever you do, take care of your shoes.”
