Street Food gets its own…Street?

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

My coverage of the burgeoning street food scene in SF is never ending. First, there was the article. Then, there was Curtis encouraging people to clean up the park, and in turn, winning Best of The Bay. San Francisco magazine decided to do a full on spread on the who’s who and what’s what of the growing street food scene.

So what’s the most perfect way to culminate all of these growing media attentions properly? Have a festival of course!

Though many of the restaurants participating are known for their haute cuisine, they are dumbing down their atmosphere and service for the masses, which means you carry along the reward in the discounted prices.

The festival is FREE to get into and although you may be able to resist that bacon wrapped hot dog while drunk, nothing will keep you from wanting Jamie Lauren‘s [in]famous hot dogs. No, that was not sexual, but she is seriously one of the hottest lesbians to make it on to television as of late. Thanks for reppin the Bay with your big smile, Jamie!

Street Food Festival
Folsom St. between 25th and 26th Streets [The Mission]
Saturday, August 22nd, 2009, 11am-7pm
Free Admission, small plates all priced accordingly.

Monica Miller - The Intern

Ms. Miller was born in San Diego, CA to one lesbian mother and one
righteous, cheap father. Currently, she is enrolled at San Francisco
State University for a B.A. in Journalism and the approximate
completion date is around 2015. She has worked for many papers in the
Bay Area, including the Oakland Tribune and the San Mateo Country
Times and is currently the city editor at one of the most
underappreciated publications in SF, the Golden Gate [X]press. Though
she may find bargains aplenty, it only stems from the necessity of
never landing an actual job and working for hacks [like Stuart.] With
intelligence, style, poise, bite, and honesty, she will rip your heart
out; but not before writing some awesome, poignant shit. This year,
she is looking forward to bigger and better things such as: trying to
get paid for a gig, actually finding a date that isn't a loser or
fucking crazy, not calling her parents when hungover and bringing you
the best of the 7x7 everyday of the week. [By the way, I wasn't
kidding about the date thing; if you love food, booze and shoegaze,
get at me.]
