Your favorite US food city was New York City. However, we think our hometown, San Francisco — with its hundreds of restaurants, glorious farmer's markets, and innovative mixologists — is the best. This year, the city by the bay hosted the Fancy Foods Show and had several top chefs compete on reality TV.

But it did, and I'm so glad to have been there.
