The Fuzzy Chef & Friends

This weekend is the Greek Food Festival at the Annunciation Cathedral on Valencia Street. The Greek festival is San Francisco's largest food festival, and I think the one which really started the trend of so many churches having food festivals as fundraisers.

I recommend going on Friday night, or early on Saturday. By Sunday afternoon, a lot of dishes are sold out, and by 7pm on Saturday the buffet line wraps around the building. Make sure to do the wine tasting -- some of the Greek wines will surprise you -- and to save room for loukamathes (and maybe take some home).

This weekend is the Armenian Food Festival at St. Gregory's Church.  Very tasty food; bring a large appetite.  Pretty much impossible to get to on Muni, but parking is easy & free.

I recommend anything involving bread & cheese, which are what Armenia does best.

For once I thought I'd blog about something while you still have time to go to it.  If it's still Sunday, you have time to get to Slow Food Nation, San Francisco 2008.

We decided to skip the Taste Pavillions up at Fort Mason, mostly because they cost $65 a person, with a limited number of tastes.  But we did drop by the Marketplace in Civic Center Plaza this morning, and we're really glad we did.
