Going to The Front Porch for brunch is never the wrong choice, especially when you can snag a table on their miniscule front patio that often sits right in the sun. This place on the border of the Mission and Bernal Heights makes Southern food like chicken and waffles, chicken fried steaks, and powdery beignets with a tart raspberry sauce. Everything here is so good (and hearty) it might inspire you to walk it off and then loop back to the red checkerboard-lined dining room for a fried chicken dinner.
