THE BUENA VISTA - SAN FRANCISCO, CA

THE BUENA VISTA

SAN FRANCISCO, CA 

 It is a tradition to visit the Buena Vista for an Irish Coffee when in San Francisco.  I have been going there for over twenty years.  Place is even more special now that we know that our friends Tom and Arlene had their first date here over 40 years ago.  Tom only had enough for one Irish Coffee and cab fare home.  Must have been good because they have been together ever since.  This is where the Irish Coffee was invented.  The Buena Vista serves them up with flair.  They line up rows of glasses and pour the coffee and whiskey in one long pouring motion.  Add a sugar cube and top with whipped creme.  So good and warm.
