What the flip were you doing in Hayes Valley?

Heck yeah, Flippers (no website - 482 Hayes St) is one of the best places to go for a burger. Excellent, well made, tasty. Gosh!

But, even better is to go there in order to cure the previous night's hangover. Whether you wake up at 9 or 4, they'll still be serving breakfast (pretty much all day). Kick it off with a mimosa or a never-ending-cup of coffee. You could make it a latte, even a soy latte or skim latte. But, is that 'cause you think you're fat? 'Cause you're not. You could be drinking whole if you wanted to.

For the food, you could go either hearty or sweet. If you get the pancakes (recommend: blueberry) or waffles, you'll get this amazing almond butter (Katie's favorite - she says, "the best butter ever") to spread all over it. Going hearty means excellent omelets, classic bacon-and-eggs combos, or even one of their burgers.

The best part of this place, though, is the patio. It's tucked to the side, surrounded by greenery, and you can bring any of your pets with you - lucky! Lounging here, sipping on a coffee, helps you enjoy that little respite on Saturdays where you can figure out the skills you possess. You know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills. Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills.
