I second the quilted fox's recommendation of Fabric Depot (and Powell's - great selection of sewing books), and would add the Mill End Store.

Powells books is a must see for book lovers. Voodoo donuts is popular, but I'm partial to Cupcake Jones. Marinepolis Sushi Land is amazingly good for conveyor belt sushi.
