A Taste of Paris, Drinking the Excelsior, and Mission Boho: A Foodie Day Planner

Let's do lunch:
Eat like you're in Paris, or, anyway, like the Vegas resort and casino of the same name. SF Weekly food critic Meredith Brody counsels salade niçoise and a Nutella crepe at The Butler and The Chef (155A South Park at Third St., 896-2075).

Drink therapy:
Hate sketchy? Chances are this isn't your scene. For everyone else, there are $7 PBR pitchers, $1.5 cans of Hamm's and Oly, and pretty much the Excelsior crowd you'd expect to be drinking 'em: Pissed Off Pete's (4528 Mission at Harrington, 584-5122).

It's lovably fusty, and you can play shuffleboard. Grab your best vintage fedora and drink in the Mission's hipster scene at Doc's Clock (2575 Mission at 21st St., 824-3627). While you're at it, save a few bucks during happy hour, 6-9 p.m.
