MEXICAN Andale (Spanish for hurry up ) offers incredible high-end fast food for the health-conscious and the plain hungry in an attractive and casual setting. Lard, preservatives, or canned items are eschewed for salad dressings made with virgin olive oil; vegetarian beans (not refried); skinless chicken; salsas and aguas frescas (fruit drinks) made from fresh fruits and veggies; and mesquite-grilled meats. Add the location (on a sunny shopping stretch), sophisticated decor, full bar, and check-me-out patio seating (with corner fireplace), and it s no wonder the fitness-fanatic Marina District considers this place home. Cafeteria-style service keeps prices low.
OUTDOOR PURSUITS One of the most popular activities in town is horseback riding along the beach. Sea Horse Ranch (aka Friendly Acres Horse Ranch), on Calif. 1 a mile north of Half Moon Bay (& 650/726-2362), offers kids pony rides and guided and unguided rides along the beach or on well-worn
prawns, and saut ed lobster. Main courses, like veal tournedos caramelized with sweetbread, black pepper jus, and braised potato; or slow-baked lamb with truffle, pistachio, and olives with steamed cabbage are also precisely prepared. The wine list is one of the most prestigious and expensive lists around.
