Happy Hour at Mamacita

Tucked away on Chestnut Street is a real Mexican food gem. Generally speaking, Mamacita is a bit pricey for us broke folk. Their happy hour, on the other hand, is worth checking out. Happy hour, or la hora feliz, at Mamacita is fit for those of us with a hole

Catch the Fights at McKenzie’s Bar

Cheap, Local and Original Mexican Food at Cholulita

Cholulita from appearance looks to be your average bodega, but for the people who know and for the curious, this is actually a great little restaurant with wonderful service and an accepting, laidback atmosphere. Often there are local Mexican guys going into the place for the imported Mexican sodas and

FREE Outdoor Fun at the Golden Gate Park Disc Golf Course

As a kid that grew up in Marin and went to college in Santa Cruz I have probably been exposed to more disc golf than most. In fact at one point in college I considered making a run at qualifying for the PDGA yes that does in fact stand for
