Harry Denton s Starlight Room Something for the 40-plus set, or even 50-plus. Twenty-two stories above Union Square, couples can dance to cocktail jazz and the milder R&B hits, and relax in the easy sophistication of the place. It s 1930s-stylish, so consider it a chance to dress up in suits and party dresses, sip highballs, and enjoy the city s seductive lights. d Sir Francis Drake Hotel, 450 Powell St at Sutter Map P4 (415) 395-8595 last second goal

^Delfina Nouvelle Italian might best describe the cuisine here, and it is turned out to near perfection. The decor is fairly stark but not overbearing, and the inventive dishes rarely fail to surprise and delight. Maybe you ll choose a night when they re serving gnocchi with peas and morel mushrooms. d 3621 18th St between Dolores and Guerrero last second goal Map F5 (415) 552-4055 Closed L Dis. access $$

The Richmond District This flat district of row houses begins at Masonic Street, sandwiched between Golden Gate Park and California Street. It ultimately extends all the way to the Pacific Ocean, being more and more prone to stay fog-bound the farther west you go. The district is very ethnically diverse and resound ingly middle class. Over the decades, it has been settled by White Russians, East European Jews, and most recently Chinese-Americans and another wave of Russians. d Map C3
