Why fight the 101 Marin traffic?

September 1st, 2008 By Ginger Wilcox

IMG_3000

If you don’t like living in the fog, these pictures demonstrate is an excellent reason to drive just a couple more exits north on the 101 freeway.  As you can see, the fog sits on the mountains between Mill Valley and Corte Madera/Larkspur.  While Mill Valley, Tiburon, Belvedere, Sausalito and San Francisco are socked in with fog, often the rest of Marin is sunny (and frequently 5-10 degrees warmer).

Unfamiliar with Marin?  It is important to understand the many weather micro-climates of the communities. A few miles (even within the same city) can mean a substantial difference in fog, light, wind, sunshine, and even rain.

Marin Breakfast Hot Spots

August 16th, 2008 By Ginger Wilcox

Looking for a great spot to grab breakfast in Marin?  Here are some of my favorite Marin restaurants for breakfast.


View Larger Map

  • Cafe Z Epicerie – Greenbrae – I really love Cafe Z.  It helps that it is across the street from my office, but the food is stellar too.  Crepes, great omelettes, yummy yogurt/granola/ fruit bowl. 
  • Half Day Cafe – Kentfield – Amazing scones, tons of variety on the menu, great Kentfield location, nice atmosphere, plenty of seating.  You can catch me Half Day Cafe often!
  • Dipsea Cafe – Mill Valley – A class Marin breakfast spot, Dipsea has to make my list.  Still one of my favorites, all though the service has been really slow the last few times I have been here. 
  • La Boulange – Mill Valley – The best lattes.  Truly.  Get the latte bowl!  The quiche is amazing too.
  • Toast- Mill Valley – Huevos Rancheros.  Enough said.  Actually, I love almost everything I have tried at Toast.  The service is always excellent, the food is delicious.  Great for breakfast or lunch.
  • Hilda’s Coffee Shop- San Anselmo – Hilda’s is true greasy spoon and it is fabulous.  Everything on the menu is excellent but the german pancakes?  Out of this world.  Share a stack with a friend.
