Mission Mission

Is it true? According to Mission Cheese’s Facebook page:

It’s official. Mission Cheese will be open to the public tomorrow, April 13. Free high fives all day!

Besides high fives and cheese, they’ll also be serving wine, beer, and various food items such as mac ‘n’ cheese and pressed sandwiches. Go get your gouda on!

Filmmaker Justin Gallagher’s 2011 Demo Reel features some pretty shots of the Mission, tilt-shifting, epic scoring, and some nice shots of TCB Couriers on bikes that may or may not be “fixies”. Hire him, already.

UPDATE!!! The place is called Radish and here’s a sneak peak at the menu!

Following up on last year’s scoop, MM reader Laurie V. brings us an update on the long-awaited soulfood spot at 19th and Lexington, as well on some insightful commentary on the interior design:

*No sign outside yet, so don’t know what the actual name of the restaurant will be (though the planning permission letters we neighbours get have said both “Rad” and “Radish”.

The curvy counter is interesting — it forces customers to face away from each other, which you’d think would be unhelpful, but I guess would actually help create a sense of privacy.

At the very least, something to fill up on before shots and pool at the Lex!

Go forth and help the Brothers out!

Just read over on the Bay Bridged that Moon Duo is doing an in-store at Aquarius tonight at 6 PM.

You can hear one of their new songs over at the Bay Bridged, check it out.

If you can’t make the in-store, they’re playing Bottom of the Hill tonight with Royal Baths and Lilac, who were pretty rad when I heard them for the first time at this show a couple weeks ago…

In case you were wondering how I really messed up my shoulder.

15th and Guerrero

MM reader Brooks H. just got finished helping with all the neat Shop for Japan stuff to help raise money for tsunami victims when he rudely discovered that karma isn’t always cut and dry:

After raising ten grand for japan, my beautiful all white bianchi  got stolen. One AM last night at 17th and mission they clipped my lock. There’s not another bike around here like it.

Let’s all do Brooks a favor and keep an eye out for this exotic bicycle.  These things are rare!

From a graphic design perspective, obviously the Muni logo is a winner. And Muni is pretty great in a number of ways. And tattoos are cool. What’s not to like?

Muni Diaries has this and a few more in a gallery of Muni-celebrating ink.

(Thanks, Sally!)
