You know what my favorite restaurant in San Francisco is? The answer is that there are so many great restaurants that I couldn't choose one. But honorable mentions include <a href="#">Mr. Chow's</a>, <a href="#">Live Sushi</a> and <a href="#">Piccino</a>.

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 9,565 PointsI got stuck on the same step. The difference was that I had placed the code for " > a" above the more general one. It failed. Why does the order of this code matter? Is it that the more general styling will overwrite the specific child one, even when it's marked out?
