There’s a little block party brewing on 22nd Street tonight! First up, quirky kitchenwares shop Pot + Pantry is having a beer- and treats-fueled art opening for Alyson Thomas dubbed Meat Market: Art
Show for Carnivores. Just down the block, art gallery-slash-boutique
Fabric8 is also hosting an art opening, along with its regular Street
Food Friday event. Between the two shops, you can load up on grub from
Magic Curry Man, Hot Buns, SF Soup Slut, TomKat, Nosh This, and Sweet
Constructions Cookies. Yum.
When: Friday, May 6, 6 to 9 p.m.
Where: Pot + Pantry, 3412 22nd Street (between Guerrero and Dolores
streets); 415-206-1134; Fabric8, 3318 22nd Street (at Valencia
Street); 415-647-5888.
Speaking of street meat, the San Jose Food Truck Festival is back for
round two on Saturday. After 10,000 people showed up at the festival’s
debut last month, this time the event will be held in a venue three
times as large as the first, with even more vendors (Curry Up Now,
MoGo BBQ, and Treatbot, included), and a new organization model in
which meals are split into lunch and dinner service to cut down on
those inevitable lines.
When: Saturday, May 7, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. for lunch, 5 to 9 p.m. for dinner
Where: Peralta Adobe, 175 West Saint John (at North Almaden), San Jose.
When: Saturday, May 7, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Where: Jackie’s Vinoteca & Cafe, 105 Valencia Street (at McCoppin Street); 415-864-5225.
