Guerilla marketing campaign for Hamburger Helper hits the Mission

Shame on you, General Mills. Some poor property owner is going to have to clean that up.

What’s for brunch?

Okay, whadda we got? There’s this:

Or these guys are going to be at Dear Mom:

And if neither of those strike your fancy, The Crab and Monkey has a recommendation:

Southpaw BBQ is now open at 11 AM on Sunday only.  Last weekend, I was headed down to Schmidt’s for a belated birthday brunch (pickled herring is like cake and ice cream to me) when I noticed that Southpaw was actually OPEN!  “RIBS?” I thought, “Ribs for brunch? I’ll take that!”  Well, the Sunday brunch menu does not include ribs, but it does include 2 eggs with hash and brisket (coulda used more potatoes, but smokey and delicious) and french toast for the wife (nice, now that Sycamore has stopped offering it).

Read on for bloody mary info (including GREEN BLOODY MARY info).

Or we could go to the beach. I dunno.

Saturday afternoon at Phono del Sol in the park will be final show for Dominant Legs’ current lineup

Bummer! This lineup rules! Apparently the band will continue to be a band, but in a different form. (I hear somebody is moving to LA or something? Boo.) Anyway, tomorrow at Phono del Sol is your last chance to see this beloved local band in its current beloved form, so get tickets quick (especially since they’re so cheap).

Now let’s rock:

Try this beer

I mean, for graphic design reasons alone, you want to try this beer. But it’s also really really good, a hoppy pale ale made by a Swede in Belgium I think. (Hop flavors and aromas, but not a lot of bitterness.) Available now at Cervecería de MateVeza across from Dolores Park.

(What’s it called? No idea, sorry.)

Malted coconut soft serve

From Bi-Rite. Highly recommended. Seen here, it’s swirled with chocolate, but I really wished I’d gotten 100% malted coconut. Malted coconut. Malted coconut. Yummmmmmm. (Plus, doy, the soft serve line is so much shorter than the other line.)

Pastrami, swiss and creamy slaw on sourdough

James from Rhea’s Deli just published this lovely photo. Luuuunchtime!

A look inside newly unveiled Farina Pizza on the corner of 18th and Valencia

Looks cool. Urban Life Signs took a few more pictures and published them along with a look back at the history of the lot where this space now resides:

Those were the days, am I right? Read on for the rest.

Biographical Info:

"I joked that living in the Mission would be the end of me. And there were nights where it felt like the case.

One night I went out with my friend Allan to the bar that no one goes to on 16th Street, where I lost half my drink and money on the dance floor. Later we skated down 16th to Evelyn Lee, where I fell off my board and landed on my head as the 22 bus sped past behind me. A sobering moment. At the bar, I sulked and nursed my wounds until Allan put on Amy Winehouse’s 'Valerie.' We danced, he dipped me, and I felt better."
