Here’s what the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce had to say when they found out the annual luncheon with the Niners ain’t gonna happen this year:
“Our main reaction is disappointment,” said Carol Piasente, the chamber’s vice president of communications and events.
(At least they’re taking it better than Otto West would.) Maybe last year’s chant led by Senator Dianne Feinstein played a factor in the cancellation?
Irregardless, KNBR 49er Family Day is ON this Saturday, June 7th.

It’s on! It’s free!
The day will feature contests, games and appearances by members of the 49ers football team, alumni, Gold Rush, Niners Noise Drumline and Sourdough Sam. Fans are encouraged to arrive early to take in all of the day’s festivities.
See you there.

San Francisco’s latest lunchtime hotspot in the Financh is doing land-office business so far, but the reviews are sort of meh.
Per Sue L.:
Burgers - reminiscent of White Castle
Fries - reminiscent of Burger King
Onion Strings - reminiscent of Asqew Grill
Hype - reminiscent of In & Out
It looks like a chain, but it’s not. People line up out the door during lunchtime, but it’s not that long a wait. The burgers, fries and onion ring string things taste good. A little pricey for what you get.
Maybe it’s for you, maybe it’s not.
