Okay, so it’s not quite as tantalizing a shot as yesterday’s picture of the meat version, but it’s a decent picture of THE BEST VEGGIE BURGER THIS CITY HAS EVER KNOWN. And guess what — it’s making a surprise appearance tonight. Laura over at Vegansaurus has more:

You all know how much we loved the Vegan Mission Burger while it was still around and if you don’t, you can read the insane tale of our mutual love here. I don’t think I’ve written so passionately about anything in my life, and I’m a very sensual person.

Well, TONIGHT, it is back for one night only! Along with drinks and Berlin-style Ping Pong, which we have no clue what it is but Allan from Mission Mission FUCKING LOVES IT so it must be alright.

Can’t wait! Read on.

From a couple years back, in its heyday. Mmm. Now don’t forget, it’s back tonight, for one night only.

Love your work, guy. Hope you found that copy of Tango and Cash you were looking for.

UPDATE: Some pics of the scene inside.

RSVP and invite your friends!

(Thanks, hcopperm!)

You might remember Ezra Furman from this song about sunglasses from a few years back. Now he’s a Mission resident, and his solo debut dropped this week.

You can listen to the A-side for free on his website, and you can attend his release show this Saturday night at Hotel Utah.

Hey you!  Yeah you there, the one with the funny haircut.  Do you know how to fix a flat on your bicycle?  Whaaaaat???  Why not?!?  What are you gonna do when you’re in the middle of nowhere on a beautiful ride and you hear that instantly recognizable hiss emanating from your tire?

Luckily, your friends at Mission Bicycle have the answer:

At this hands-on workshop, we’ll start with the basics, then give you the tricks and secrets of fast and easy flat fixing.
At the 11 AM session, we’ll get jacked on Fayes coffee and Pepple’s vegan donuts.  At the 5 PM session we’ll savor fresh Firebrand pretzels and ice cold beer (Anchor Steam and IBC).
We’ll even send you home with a set of our favorite tire levers.
We end the session with a group ride – a tour of the Mission District’s 11 bike related businesses.
One last thing.  No spectators allowed.  Nobody admitted without a bike.  Come prepared to get your hands dirty.

Of course, it wouldn’t be fair if we didn’t have two (2) free tickets to give away! All you have to do is tell a little story in the comments about a time when not knowing how to fix a flat really ruined your day. The contest closes at 5pm on Wednesday and entries will be judged on merit.

And if you just want to be sure that you get in on this, you can also register for the class here.

Here’s a piece of GIF wizardry for those of you who have chosen 16th and Harrison’s Dear Mom as your pit stop.
