I didn’t know if anything was going to happen in the Castro this year, but according to Twitter updates and Facebook status updates, something was definitely going down. When we got there, it felt like Halloween in the Castro was coming to a revival. There was no organized party and roads were not closed off, [...]

Helen and I attempted to grub at the San Francisco Street Food Festival last minute towards the end of it. When we got there, a lot of the stands were already out of food, and the ones remaining had crazy lines that that were barely moving, so we decided to have our own little street [...]

The J-Pop Summit Festival at Japantown was like nothing I’ve ever seen before in SF. I’m glad I decided to go last minute to “kill time”. Unlike other festivals, this one wasn’t loaded with corporate vendors trying to market their business and make sales. Instead, there were local/Japanese-related booths set up. Also, it wasn’t your [...]

Michael Chiarello (Food Network star) hosted the event and Tyler Florence (Food Network star), Sara Moulton, Jessica Battilana (7×7), and Hubert Keller (Fleur De Lys) were [...]

We woke up, ate, and never stopped … until we went to sleep.

Linda and I went to the Fillmore Jazz Festival. We got there pretty late (around 4pm) and it was still crowded. We weren’t that hungry so we only got a giant red velvet cupcake and a sweet potato peach pie from Marita’s Sweet Potato Pie Co. and fried oysters with garlic fries from one of [...]

Here are some pictures from Solange Knowle’s (Beyonce’s younger sister) performance at SF Pride. She performed just two or three acts before BoA. I’d say that most people were there to see those two divas. After they finish, the crowd around the main stage definitely cleared up.

The main reason I went to SF Pride on Sunday was to see BoA perform. Honestly, I’m not that big of a fan, but I gotta support my fellow Asians, and I definitely had to see BoA since she’s the biggest name in Korea. She was definitely the most popular performer out there thanks to [...]

I wasn’t planning on it, but since I was driving by Mission Street Food, didn’t have dinner plans and saw a parking spot, I decided to call Linda to see if she and the others were still planning to eat there. They were, so I got in line for them and we feasted in celebration [...]
