Not content to let alt-weeklies have all the fun, Yuppie Glossy San Francisco (the magazine) has published their Reader’s Poll of the Best of the Bay Area 2010 and hey, guess what? Nopa (the restaurant) got a couple nods for Best Late-night bites and Best Place to Dine with a Crowd, which isn’t really all [...]
EaterSF reports that Waffle Mania Waffle Truck-turned-Kiosk has been approved to set up another location in Golden Gate Park. Caroburger over at Eater is a little thin on the details, but apparently they’re going to operate out of a truck set up “near the museums”. So, at JFK Drive and Hagiwara Tea Garden Drive, then? [...]
So it turns out the Arco/BP Shutdown party wasn’t just a one time thing and the Facebook Revolutionaries behind the protest are doing this weekly now (who knew?). More importantly though, last Friday’s protest not only angered a lot of drivers, but it apparently pissed off Arco Station owner Larry Armstrong who, according to facebook [...]
I’ve noticed this dirt-cheap hot dog offer in the past (which may or may not be related to the hot dog cart guy that hangs out in front of the Independent), but now they’ve got a table and chairs out in front of the convenience store at the 76 Station. Because if there’s one thing [...]
At this point we all really hate British Petroleum, right? And in the neighborhood, I think most of us agree that we already hated the Arco at Fell and Divis because that fucking place was really a pain in the ass to pull into and then you had to pay in cash at that stupid [...]
BREAKING – In a NOPA District coffee/art/sandwiches/earth-tones establishment, a young man finished his second beer and felt the desire for a cigarette despite having allegedly quit two months ago. No word on whether the falafel will be finished or whether he’ll stare at it for another fifteen minutes.
There is word on the wire that he’ll attempt [...]
This dude infront of the Bean Bag Cafe had a knife and threatened to kill a number of crust-punk kids sitting outside. I don’t know why. I don’t even care. I just think that the guy has seen ‘Death Wish’ one too many times because God knows we all have opinions about gentrification in [...]
Bloodied, dirtied, and covered in what appears to be aloe vera, I have arrived in San Francisco.
For the third and perhaps final time in 9 months I packed up everything I own into my car and left Los Angeles, swearing that I’d never return. I headed North, to the Bay Area, home of promiscuity, revelry, long [...]
First up, Nooworks – that adorable little shop of screenprinted tees and totes and such attached at the hip to Workshop announced in a blog post that they’re packing up and heading down to the Mission. While it’s always sad to see someone leave the neighborhood for the delusional glamor of Valencia Street, we have [...]
After hearing the announcement on Wednesday that ING would be dropping their Bay to Breakers sponsorship, the fine Citizens for the Preservation of Bay2Breakers (Why do we always put a 2 in there? That’s stupid.) put together this data-filled press release/blog post detailing why Bay to Breakers (Or “B2B”, barf you please) will still be [...]
jie: please do not use violent language if you are accusing someone of doing just that. The term you used to refer to this girl (whom I am not defending) is one that is loaded and, akin to swastikas, a symbol of intolerance and hatred. As a Jewish woman, I find both incredibly offensive and hurtful. Yes: my family was killed the Holocaust, and I have women in my family who were killed because of their genders (as women). So please, think a bit more before you speak. Thanks. - please...
