Fake Polaroids Still Going Strong

Fake Polaroids Even Better Than the Real Thing?

Have you ever wondered, while waiting in a 25-minute line for your salted caramel and balsamic strawberry cone, whether Studio 3579 sells men’s or women’s clothing?  Well, the answer is neither, since it appears that the work/shop is now being advertised on Craigslist.  Maybe you can convince your Pop$ to front some cash so you can open an edgy gallery at “the gateway to the best microcosm of Mission food in the area”  and “take advantage of the Bi-Rite ice cream line in and hungry masses crowding the sidewalks on their way to Bi-Rite Market, Delfina and Tartine.”  Act now before Forever 21 snatches it up.

Bonus Listing!!! — Got a killer quick eats idea?  Ready to become the next Pal’s Takeaway or Rhea’s Deli and battle for neighborhood sandwich supremacy?  Perhaps you have a really classy sign with which you want to tempt thieves?  Or do you just wish Banh M(a)i would quit messing around with this Twitter silliness and open a damn Vietnamese sandwich place in the Mission?  Well, your dream spot is available for only $20k and $400/month rent.  Sandwich entrepeneur, make me proud!

This is looking like a trend! TCB Courier is adding another sandwich spot to it’s free-delivery roster: Jay’s Cheesesteak starting Monday.

I wonder how Philadelphians feel about BBQ seitan cheesesteak sandwiches? Don’t answer that, I don’t actually want to know. I’m sure it’s similar to how they feel about a London “Philly Cheesesteak”:

Do people still even name their dogs that anymore? 

Regardless, S. Pigeon has the scoop.

A new culinary endeavor seems to be emerging just down the street between Valencia and Mission, right near the panaderia and that friendly cafe with the bagel special and the tasty OJ.  It offers free delivery, but of what?  Thai food?  Medical supplies?  Further investigation is definitely in order.  Mustering the myriad skills picked up from an upbringing by Columbo, I bravely venture forth and discover:

Super Mario Pizza Wii?

So says their neighbor-to-be Kiya Babzani of Self Edge:

Farina’s pizzeria will actually be two spaces, one containing a pizzeria and the other containing an Italian foods mini grocery store.

Nice. Now, next time you’re in dire need of a torpedo sub or a tub of pesto and the line at Lucca is too long, bop down the way to Farina.

Just look at how intently they’re ALL fixed on whatever whoever’s talking is saying.

Fudgekat asks, “Have you ever seen Tapatio packets?”

I have not, but I would like to see some. Soon. Spilling their guts onto a food item I’m about to consume. Where can I make this happen? (Besides some place in Los Angeles, which is where Fudgekat spotted hers.)

Janebook is a good place to see great lo-fi square-shaped pictures of the neighborhood, like the above and like the below.
