Eat Real Fest (Sunday)

We went to the Eat Real Fest again. Today is the last day. So sad!

Our favorite was the Senor Sisig's Filipino pork tacos ($2.50).

Looks like they're running to be in the Food Network's second season of the Great Food Truck Race.
We wanted to try the bao at Chairman Bao, but the line was just too long.

We tried the Thai Bao ($4) at Le Truc instead. It was the least favorite of the day.

Simply Garlic - Garlic Noodles ($4), Chicken Apple & Chicken Mozzerella Egg Rolls ($3)

Fat Face - Strawberry Basil Lemonade popsicle, Yellow Watermelon Pineapple popsicle ($3)
Gather Restaurant & Prather Ranch - Prather Ranch Slider ($5), Small Roasted Corn Salad ($3)
Had a sour pickle for $1.

Straus Family Creamery - Caramel Toffee Crunch ($2)

Some booths were selling fresh food like these beets. The building at Jack London Square still had the Farmer's Market today.

Eat Real Fest Butchering Contest

At the Eat Real Fest they had a butchering contest. Gigantic leg of beef into little pieces!


Look at the crowd it drew in!

Eat Real Fest (Saturday)

We've been looking forward to the Eat Real Fest all year, and it's finally here! We went last year and just loved it. It's a lot bigger this year with more food vendors and demos. Having more food vendors seem to shorten the lines a lot. The longest line we stood in was for the mini lobster roll; probably about 10 min. Otherwise, the lines were about a 5 min. wait to none. We're planning to go again tomorrow!




Seoul on Wheels - Spicy Pork Korean Taco ($3)
Get Jerked! - Jerk Fish Tacos ($4)
Jim n Nick's BBQ - Smoked Pork Sausage with Pimento Cheese ($5)
Hapa SF - Lumpia Shanghai ($3)
Pizza Politana - Eat Real Pizza ($3)
Chaac-Mool - Al Pastor Taco ($3)
Sam's Chowder House - Mini Lobster Roll ($5)
Los Cilantros - Organic Roasted Corn ($3)
They also had farm animals like little chickens and goats.

Birdie Branch

The office looked so bare, so I made a branch. Hubby helped me put it up.

It's just made out of cardboard, SF Chronicle, and Mod Podge. But it looked a little lonesome.

So I got some felt and made a little birdhouse for it.

One day, a bird came to take a look.

It must have told his friends about it because suddenly there were several other birdies that were fluttering and twittering around the branch. The office is such a lively place now. Hope we can still get work done in there.
