LUCKY STRIKE

Luckyrice Is Here. Then It’s Gone.

Here’s the plan: you’ll stride into this Luckyrice pop-up feast. Grab a gin-and-yellow-pepper-puree cocktail and a plate of sashimi. Exchange hellos with a chef or two. Fill a plate with spicy pork belly. Grab another drink. Leave, eventually. You’ll have to leave eventually.

Saturday
Mikkeller’s Turning Two. So... Beer.
MIKK OF TIME

Mikkeller’s Turning Two. So... Beer.

It’s Mikkeller’s second birthday, and they’re celebrating by offering you a ton of rare beers. There’s no ticket situation. Just show up and start drinking beers. It seems almost wrong. It’s not wrong.

Aug 8, noon, Mikkeller Bar, 34 Mason St (at Turk), 415-984-0279

Tuesday
