E&Y TAP National Advisory, Recent Grad. Should I choose NYC or SF?

My recruiter gave me the option to choose. I'm interested in the tech scene in SF and want to eventually end up at a VC firm. However, I have a finance background and NYC sounded like it had a higher client concentration. Does anyone know if I'll actually get to work on cool tech projects in SF or just be traveling to Midwest all the time?
