The 21st Amendment Brewery on San Francisco’s 2nd Street near the Giants’ ballpark must have the happiest beer in the world, judging by this disco ball scene.
Of course, this is old news to Laughing Squid’s Scott Beale, who, like MasterCard, is Everywhere You Want To Be.

Not to be confused with the Disneyesque Farallon Restaurant on Post Street, the Farallones can only be seen from San Francisco on the clearest of days.
Atop Southeast Farallon Island is the Farallon Island Light, barely visible even in this magnified photo.

There’s a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
Spork restaurant at 1058 Valencia near 21st in the Mission was new last year, but there have been some changes since then so let’s take a look, why not.
PAUL REIDINGER over at the Bay Guardian did an excellent job with his review - check here. Now you’re on the trolley.
Zagat Online has some photos, but their sample menu seems a tad out of date. (This menu here is au courant) Find out if Zagat’s “SporkLover” likes Spork by clicking here. Surprised?
You’ll see the dishes after the jump. Everything was uniformly good and they have a nice beer menu, but some people think the prices might be a bit on the high side.
Regardless, you owe it to yourself to check out this refurbished KFC at least once. It’s highly amusing.
Photos of the food, yes food porn, after the jump.
You tend to see this more outside of San Francisco - restaurant employees out on the curb encouraging customers to come in. But it happened a lot in S.F. just after 9/11. Must not have been a picnic trying to make money in that environment. To help out, the Dine About Town program got started in 2002 trying to coax people back into restaurants.
But this is 2008, so it seems funny that a place on Columbus in North Beach would be looking for more business on a Saturday night, in June, at 8:00 PM.
In nearby Chinatown, the low point for the food service industry was in 2003 when the SARS scare prevented anybody from showing up for the Shirley Fong-Torres Wok Wiz tour one day. You couldn’t make it five feet down Grant Avenue without being propositioned during this time.
It can be a tough way to make a living, the restaurant biz.
Chin up!
No, not that Russia House, written by John le Carré and starring Sean Connery and Michelle Pfeiffer. And not that one either.
It’s this one, the restaurant at 2011 Bayshore Blvd. in freeway-close Visi Valley. Would you be brave enough to check it out after reading what the Yelpers have to say and seeing that even our municipal government won’t venture foot in there?
Comes now bold Michael Procopio who brought a brace of his “girls” down there to check things out for Bay Area Bites.
Neon, fur, and vodka - who could ask for anything more?
It seems like Russia House is great place to go, if only to watch a party from another culture. (In Russia, Party watch you!)
Check it out, if you want.
