Where do you go when you live in San Jose and want to hang out in a fun and lively neighborhood but don’t want to drive an hour to San Francisco? You go to Santana Row! Santana Row is a brand new complex that opened just couple years ago. It attempts to recreate the european street looking style. There are french cafes where they use the exact same tables than the real ones in France! The difference is that it is an upscale development with luxury residences and restaurants. This has become our favorite place to hang out in San Jose. Last time we went, there was a fashion show and live music. Today, we had an ice cream and played chess outside
