Looking for that great gift idea? Then make sure to check out our new and fun packages! Whether you are looking for a fun night out or a more romantic evening in, we have something for you. Where else in San Francisco can you find such a fun Valentine's Day package?

Sitting for lunch by the window at Colibri Mexican Bistro, you can see people walking with shopping bags, running back to their office after lunch, racing to make sure they do not miss the MUNI or BART train. All in all, the Union Square area of San Francisco is never dormant, there is always movement and it is rare to see people standing around, for there is always something to do or see in our beautiful neighborhood.

 However this was not the case yesterday at Hallidie Plaza, located near the entrance to Powell St. Station, below the Cable Car Turnaround. For about five minutes, people running to take BART decided to wait, and were ok with missing their train, people held off on their lunch dates to see what was going on in this Plaza.

A Flashmob of about 40 dancers moving to “Don’t Stop Me Now,” stopped all foot traffic. With participants of the BID, and  Alonzo King LINES Ballet dance center, Hallidie Plaza was filled with spectators recording, twitting, facebooking what they were seeing. It was a great way to start the lunchtime!

If you find yourself wanting to do something fun this Saturday, the Alonzo King LINES dance studio will have a $5 special, in which you may try “bite sized samples,” of the different types of dance classes they have- which are about 80 different classes a week!

What other city has oversized artsy painted hearts planted at major destination landmarks for its city goers to enjoy. Where else can you go from climbing the hills and then sliding down for the greatest pizza & Italian wine?  Just in 7 miles you can run the Marina or jump on a cable car. San Francisco has it all! My favorite break of the day is a walk past Union Square, where so many locals are eating their lunch on the stairs, on the benches, or on the grass (weather permitting) and picking up a hot chocolate at Café Madeline with their homemade chocolate whipped cream. Yep! It is worth the calories that make you want to run the peaks & valley’s of our great City….San Francisco!
