Read this at lunch, in the September issue of Metropolitan Home.

san francisco The City by the Bay’s North Beach neighborhood, known for its old-world restaurants, is now a destination for the latest in Italian furnishings: Dzine is a high-style store that owners Cardenio and Eve Petrucci say was inspired by Milan showrooms. Their industrial, 10,000-square-foot space covers all the bases, including furniture from Driade, Moroso and de Padova; bathroom fixtures from Agape; and the latest designs from the likes of Piero Lissoni, Ron Arad and Patricia Urquiola (128 Utah St.; 415/674-9430, dzinestore.com).

Thing is, since when is Utah Street in North Beach? I’m guessing that it’s a small shop for the big showroom. But still, come on.
