Until this past run up to Portland, I'd never flown Alaska Airlines nor Horizon Air before. With a fleet of all propeller-based planes serving its regional network, I wasn't getting my hopes up either.
But I've gotta say that I was pretty impressed with it all. The service was friendly and efficient (I love the simultaneous deplaning from two doors and the fast "ala cart" carry-on retrieval), and they had a great added touch of serving local wine and beer at no charge.
Granted, this photo shows a Good Earth herbal tea instead, but I liked how uniquely and naturally sweet that stuff was without requiring any sugar. The little bits of corn in the snack mix also put a smile on my face.

If you're flying back through SFO, check out Shalimar for kebabs. I would recommend the one up in Fremont - have not been to the one in the city for some time:

I would highly recommend the beef Seekh Kebabs, the Lahori chicken and some naan. Saag gosht isn't bad too. Avoid the nihari/haleem.
And head down to Curry Up Now in San Mateo:

Get a kathi roll (chicken), the deconstructed samosa and goat curry with rice. A cool California evening will make this good go down real easy.
