Cafe de Stijl is tucked away, the service can be awful slow and the parking is through the roof expensive.  Yet, I always go there when I’m in San Francisco because of the big bowls of lattes (reminds me of my morning coffee when I lived in France) and the artsy furniture.  I keep forgetting who makes the furniture but I promised myself that one day I would commission the artist to make some for me.

I also liked their steamed eggs.  As for the slowness, I just take it in stride and pretend that I’m really in a European bistro.

Update.  Artist found!  Randy Castellon.  He’s a genius, check out many of his projects his gallery.  Thanks to another talented designer, Nilus De Matran of Nilus Designs for letting me know!
