Mission Mission

Zak from the Doc’s of the Bay food truck explains:

Our brand new DPW permit is for 22nd at Mission every Saturday night, and 16th and Valencia every Sunday night. We will be using the 22nd St. location every Saturday night 6pm-1am starting next Saturday, and will be using the Valencia location starting late summer. We serve quality American comfort food on a bun, with a menu focused on what we honestly believe to be the best burger and black bean burger in the city (pictures attached), as well as our original recipe ketchup. On top of this we rotate in a classic American sandwich (right now it’s a crabcake), chocolate chip cookies, fries, and an Arnold Palmer.

Can’t wait!

The Bold Italic takes a look inside:

The vinyl carried in the shop varies wildly in genre and you can generally count on leaving with some unexpected finds. On one particular visit, I scored a long lost Black Sabbath album I’d been looking for, a collection of classic country LPs, and a couple 45s by local bands that have since broken up. The house stereo is just as eclectic. I’ve heard “God Save the Queen” followed by a Billy Idol hit and a Billy Childish ballad. This wide cultural smattering extends to the name of the shop itself – which was taken from a segment of a Simpsons Christmas episode in which Bart is caught shoplifting. Sounds pretty punk to me.

Not Giants; giants. (Actually this is pretty close to Mission Cliffs… How many climbers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?)

Parked at the Treasure Island Flea Market.

Not sure what the “BAHMA” part means (either they misspelled Barmah or they misspelled their own Etsy name), but I’m taking the “KANGAROO” part as a celebration of Australia Day, which was last Thursday. (Go drink a Cooper’s at Zeitgeist if you’d care to celebrate belatedly.)

We’re talking about Andy’s rad new glasses. They’re from France, and they look like Jolly Ranchers and Robitussin.

In the wake of all the debate about whether SFPD or NYPD drive the worst patrol cars, OPD swoops in and takes the cake.

(Oh and they did some other swooping too.)
