BYOB and Empanadas at Tabaré
Going on dates isn’t a thing hipsters really…. do…. since it often involves sobriety (gah), looking somewhat presentable, and acknowledging that an actual courtship is going on. But if you have found that special someone you think you can be sober around, Tabaré is one of the cutest date places
A Taste of Greece – San Francisco Greek Food Festival
The San Francisco Greek Food Festival is one of the most elusive events I have ever encountered. For the past few months, in an act of probably overzealous anticipation, I have been scouring the interwebs looking for clues as to the dates and deets on my most favorite of food

The Manhattan Inn: Not Actually In Manhattan
If you’re sick of the speakeasy aesthetic, then, The Manhattan Inn is probably not for you. Maybe you just can’t relate to it. Kind of like books, because they’re all like: “One summmahh, when I was vacaaationing with my cousins, I met Rrrrafaelo Rotundo, and he shooowed me how to
