What’s in your weekend?
Rule #1 when it comes to chef’s knives: don’t skimp. That said, consider this set made with fiberglass handles and German steel blades. They’re lightweight and evenly balanced with blades that are ultrathin and sturdy. Looks good, cuts great, end of story.
A mini-golf happy hour sounds sort of fun. Especially when it’s an 18-hole course at Pier 70 designed by local artists that celebrates San Francisco history. And when a DJ and barbecue and bars are involved. Mainly when a DJ and barbecue and bars are involved.
This weekend calls for a music festival. Preferably a non-shit-show-y one featuring indie bands like Chairlift and delicious things from Bacon Bacon that’s happening in a sunny park in Potrero. One like Phono del Sol, which is happening this Saturday. Convenient.
Living in San Francisco, you no doubt understand that Bullitt is the greatest San Francisco film ever filmed. So it stands to reason that you’ll want to head to the Yard at Mission Rock on Saturday night for a gratis outdoor screening of it. Because of all the reason-standing, you see.
Volta, everyone’s favorite French-Scandinavian restaurant in SoMa, serves brunch now. It’s where you show up, eat poached eggs with smoked salmon and drink Bloody Vikings laced with aquavit. You can do other things, too, but you should prioritize those.
Pool parties: good. Pool parties with disco vibes at the Phoenix’s incredibly well-appointed pool bar: better. Which just about covers your Sunday afternoon plans. This has been both productive and a joy.
