Cliff House. Slanted Door. Union Street. They’re worthwhile, but oh so expected. When you want to delve deeper into the city’s layers, try Mundane Journeys. Local artist Kate Pocrass organizes bus tours where you’ll try on hats at the Burlington Coat Factory, find rare cans of soda at a Tenderloin convenience store and play free Ms. Pac-Man in a furniture outlet in the Mission. Or call her hotline for specific directions about where to go and what to look for (the unique diamond pattern on the sidewalk at Page and Cole, for instance). Her gorgeously illustrated Mundane Journeys book is sold out, but a new edition is due this summer. We can’t wait.
