  14. A Korean BBQ restaurant on Geary in the Richmond where the grills burn real charcoal instead of gas, so the meat picks up smoke in the few seconds between grate and mouth. You can order a la carte or hand the decision to the two-, four-, and six-person sets, a kindness on a day your judgment has clocked out. The banchan keeps coming, and so do the japchae and soondubu, in case you thought the grill was the whole show.

  17. The original location of this festively orange Greenpoint coffee shop has a second room given over to quiet laptoppers and a shelf of free books, which sets the tone nicely. Cafe Grumpy roasts its own beans and has been around forever; the vibe is airy and unhurried, the kind of place that handles both first dates and long Sunday afternoons without breaking a sweat. Pastries, gluten-free options, and grab-and-go cold brew round things out.

  26. Cracked & Battered is a halal breakfast and lunch counter where the menu wanders from chicken and waffles to fried chicken benedict to nasi goreng wearing a fried egg like a hat. Order at the counter, and expect a sandwich with lemony slaw and a tangy house sauce, plus fries that don't feel like an afterthought. It's a casual, inexpensive daytime stop, and The Infatuation lists it among SF's best fried chicken sandwiches.

  29. Photos of dim sum taped to the wall serve as both menu and ordering system at this no-frills Buford Highway dim sum spot, which suits regulars just fine since they already know what they want. Order off the menu rather than waiting on carts, and point confidently at shrimp rice noodle rolls or pan-fried turnip cakes with lap cheong. The BuHi mural wraps around the corner of the plaza if you need a reason to walk afterward.

  30. Din Tai Fung is a dressy dumpling house at Scottsdale Fashion Square, where a glass window lets passersby watch the kitchen staff fold each dumpling by hand. Inside, a bonsai-style tree anchors the dining room, and nearly every table has a silver steamer of soup dumplings and a diner learning about molten broth the hard way. Reservations are less a suggestion than a survival strategy, and 2:30 on a Tuesday is a fine time to eat.







  31. The line at this Rosedale brewpub sometimes spills into the parking lot, which tells you most of what you need to know. It's been around forever, pours a serious range of craft beer, and keeps the food exactly where it belongs: fish and chips, hot dogs, chili cheese fries. Grab a spot at the big bar or drag yourself out to the patio, where the furniture looks assembled from good intentions and spare parts.

  32. A robot trundles your dumplings to the table, which makes sense once you realize this is a QR-code-order, counter-service dim sum spot in an Alpharetta strip mall. The menu leans traditional Cantonese, with har gow, siu mai, and char siu bao alongside soup dumplings and sheng jian bao for a cross-regional sweep. No rolling carts, but the robot more than compensates for the theater gap.


  33. The carts roll from opening until mid-afternoon at this dim sum restaurant in Duluth, after which you can order off the menu all day. The room was clearly a steakhouse in a past life, which adds a certain unintentional charm to the weekend rush. Weekends fill fast, so expect a wait. The doufuhua, a tofu dessert in ginger syrup, makes a quietly persuasive case for ending a savory meal on something soft and barely sweet.

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
