Eh, I disagree. I've spent time in both and I prefer SF restaurants. I think it may have to do with the fact that local is generally better in California. Also there are some types of food where I just don't prefer the NY style -- in particular I don't like NY pizza. I've tried all the recommended spots and I think I just don't like the style as much. EDIT: Someone mentioned elsewhere about the high quality of food in the Bay once you leave SF. A good example of this is Michael Warring's found in a strip mall in Vallejo (yes, a strip mall in Vallejo) -- just really good food: http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/6/1691241/restaurant/Michael-Warring-Vallejo http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/6/1691241/restaurant/Michael-War...
