All Day Breakfast Spots

Breakfast at Tiffany's, one of out local hang-outs in the Portola for a traditional all-day breakfast. Personally, I prefer the New City Bakery next door for their cocktail buns and dry pork toast, although neither place is much to look at.  Just be prepared at New City to run the gauntlet of smoking construction workers out front.  Do you have a favorite breakfast place in D10?

From SFGate,

The restaurants are often filled with those who can provide a play-by-play of the previous night's game while forking down a three-egg omelet, home fries and toast, then washing it all down with several cups of coffee. All before 7 a.m.

These are the sort of customers who keep San Francisco's 40-seat Breakfast at Tiffany's hopping, according to April Martin, who, along with older brothers and cooks Don and Gerald Adan, have been in same Portola location for more than three decades.

San Bruno Avenue's ethnic challenges

From SFGate,
Joe Johnson and Nelson Liang grew up on opposite sides of the world - Arkansas, USA, and Guangzhou, China, respectively. They've ended up working within feet of each other, on San Francisco's San Bruno Avenue, where they share a view of a rapidly changing neighborhood and a prescription for improving relations between African American and Asian American communities.

It's not exactly rocket science: People need to get to know each other and understand their cultural differences and similarities. Their prescription might seem obvious, but the fact that it springs from their day-to-day, on-the-street experiences gives it weight. And a reassuring sense of possibility.
