Eating out, gluten-free is a wonderful article for gluten free dining in the City.  

Here are the highlights...

"The following restaurants are among the many in San Francisco offering choices suitable for gluten-sensitive diners. Many label the items on their menus. More ideas for gluten-free eating are available at celiac.org and celiac.com"....
