There's nothing like playing tourist in your own city to help you see it with fresh eyes. Just ask S.F.-based Cynthia of Cyn Eats, who showed visitor and star YouTuber Evelina the ropes in the city by the Bay. The day took them everywhere from waiting in line at the cult-followed Mr. Holmes Bakehouse to strolling around under the picture-perfect Chinatown lanterns. The next time you're itching to roam S.F. for the day, consider your route mapped.
