a standard dishwasher can clean 12 place settings at a time, and this same size is considered big enough for a family of four. some models come with a thermal style carafe which allows the coffee drinker to brew a pot of coffee right into the carafe for coffee on the go. brief overview of the delonghi esam3300 espresso machine basically, there are two categories of microwave ovens. if you desire the ultimate in power, the t3 evolution hair dryer has a massive 2000 watts.

Doc’s was only unpleasant because you missed the Doggie Happy Hour. Now that is the money shot.

I lived across the street from Hank’s 500 in the late 70′s. It was a workingman’s bar where you’d see guys grabbing a morning shot before climbing into their truck. Rainbow Grocery was around the corner on 16th, the Deaf Club was on Valencia, and La Cumbre was the only restaurant. A lot changes in SF in 30 years

In the summer of 2000 I worked graveyard shift at Sparky’s and we’d go to the 500 Club at 6 a.m. after work on Saturdays and Sundays. The guys who worked the closing shift at Molotov’s also did the morning at the 500 a few hours later. They would skate from Molotov’s, stop at Sparky’s for a bite, then go open the 500, where we would catch up with them when the day shift came on. So many hilarious drunken mornings in there, followed by waking up at 8 p.m. with a serious hangover. Disorienting!
I heard they stopped opening at 6 shortly after that summer.

YES! I was there at the stuck-up pretentious table. Next time make sure to say hi!

It was really fun from around 8:30 to 10:00, after that some really stuck up pretentious people showed up so we had to go. When was it that you arrived?

I agree, its one of the few bars where pretension is left at the door even on the weekends. And, it has a fire place.

It’s not about what they want. It’s about what they look like. Duh.

No. It was designed to mock people that weren’t culturally aware enough to look/act like they lived in Manhattan. This is a subtle, but important difference.

500 Club is still awesome, I don’t miss the pool table, but do miss pinball machines with both flippers working….
