have sommeliers, so you can usually depend on their wine choices to go with what you have ordered. If you choose your own wine, remember that California wines are identified by grape rather than by region. If beer is more your thing, there are excellent local brews that compete very well with the best European products. And don t forget to try the local mineral waters (see p67).
The Embarcadero The Embarcadero starts at Aquatic Park and curves all the way around montague inn tug hill to Hunters Point at the southeastern edge of the city. Now that the Port of Oakland handles the Bay s shipping needs, the old piers are used for any number of purposes these days, and the parallel road has recently become a park promenade (see p49). Pier 39 is the most famous since it was turned into an amusement attraction in the 1980s, while other piers house concerts, festivals, antiques fairs, and restaurants. When looking for a particular pier, note that those to the north of the Ferry Building have odd numbers and those to the south, even. d Map G1
