Although Mama’s is the more famous breakfast place, it will require you to stand in a line. Go to Mo’s and you’ll get food that is just as good and you will be seated more promptly!

Walking DOWN the Greenwich Steps or the Filbert Steps on the east side of Telegraph Hill is an experience not to be missed. Walking UP the steps is more strenuous but just as fun . . . perhaps go down one of them and up the other one.
