Bohemian San Francisco

Under the Monadnock building, in Market street near Third, is Jule's, well liked and well patronized because of its good cooking and good service. Jule is one of the noted restaurateurs of the city, having attained high celebrity before the fire. His prices are moderate and his cooking and viands of the best, and will satisfy the most critical of the gourmets. At the corner of Market and Eddy streets is the Odeon, down in a basement, with decorations of most U garish order. There is a good chef and the place has quite a vogue among lovers of good things to eat. Probably at no place in San Francisco can one find game cooked better BOHEMIA than at Jack's, 615 Sacramento street. OF THE His ducks are always cooked so as to PRESENT elicit high praise. He has an old-style French table d'hote dinner which he serves for $1.25, including wine. Or you may order anything in the market and you will find it cooked "the best way." One of the specialties of Jack's is fish, for which the restaurant is noted. It is always strictly fresh and cooked to suit the most fastidious taste. When you see August (do not fail to pronounce it Owgoost) in repose you involuntarily say, that is if you understand German, "Mir ist alles AS IT IS an," which is the German equivalent IN of "I should worry." When August GERMANY is in action you immediately get a thirst that nothing but a stein of cold beer will quench. August is the pride of the Heidelberg Inn at 35 Ellis street. All you can see from the street as you pass around the corner from Market, is a sign and some stairs leading down into a basement, but do not draw back just because it is a basement restaurant, for if you do you will miss one of the very few real Bohemian restaurants of San Francisco. Possibly our point of view will not coincide with that of others, but while there are dozens of other Bohemian restaurants there is but one Heidelberg Inn. Here is absolute freedom from irksome conventionality of other people, and none of the near Bohemianism of so many places claiming the title. At the Heidelberg Inn one need never fear obtrusiveness on the part of other visitors, for here everybody attends strictly to his or her own party, enjoying a camaraderie that has all the genuine,whole-souled companionship found only where German families are accustomed to congregate to seek relaxation from the toil and worry of the day. An evening spent in Heidelberg Inn is one replete with character study that cannot be excelled anywhere in San Francisco — and this means that everybody there is worth while as a study, from the little, bald-headed waiter, Heine, and the big, imposing waiter, August, to the "Herr Doctor" who comes to forget the serious surgical case that has been worrying him at the hospital. Here you do not find obtrusive waiters brushing imaginary crumbs from your chair with obsequious hand, nor over zealous stewards solicitous of your food's qual- ity. It is all perfect because it is made perfect by good management. Here are (ierman families, from Grossfader and Grossmutter, down to the newest grandchild, sitting and enjoy- AS IT IS ing their beer and listening to such IN
