Please allow the weekend to introduce himself. He’s a man of wealth and taste.
Behold: an exclusive batch of Rolexes, Cartiers and other refined vintage watches—only available on Perks. (Your wrist will thank you later.) We’re also getting you 29% off some amazing shave creams, cologne and more. Plus: 25% off some handsome-as-hell headphones. (Bonus: if you’ve got an Outlook.com account, you get an extra 10% off.)
A Chez Panisse alum just opened a new deli. This is great news. Especially if you like eating spicy Molinari coppa sandwiches and toasted-farro salads. Or picking up whole roasted chickens and taking them home for dinner. Or to a jousting tournament. Wherever you’re taking your dinner these days.
Here’s the problem with Pop-Tarts: they’re not stuffed with salami and orange cream cheese. Wait. That’s not a problem anymore. Because one of the lovely ladies behind the pre-Starbucks La Boulange just opened a new bakery. And she makes those now. The sticky buns and cakes are more of a formality.
Books. You remember those. The paper-Kindle things. Anyway, you should consider picking up a bunch of them at Chronicle Books sometime between now and Saturday afternoon. Everything in the store is 65% off—rib-specific cookbooks, Rolling Stones coffee-table tomes... a mustache-growing guide. Hey, it’s there if you need it.
Just a quick heads-up that there’s a new Filipino pop-up dinner series happening over the next few nights. Should be great. Couple chefs from Guam put it together. Maybe there’ll be things like Manila clams with chicharrones. Little Filipino-style meat loaf, perhaps. Never know. You love never knowing.
Last week, we told you where, when and how to get free grilled cheese. This week, we’re... doing that again. So here goes. Where: the American Grilled Cheese Kitchen in South Park. When: Friday night. Happy hour. How: show up and ask for a free grilled cheese. You’re so very welcome.
