What’s Going On?

The SF Street Food Fest was a huge success. A large number of people showed up to this event by the truckload. The festival was held within one city block and it was packed. Food and drink vendors lined Folsom Street between 25th and 26th Streets with visitors from all over who came to embark on tasting some of the finest foods that San Francisco can offer. People waited in line as much as 30-45 minutes just to get a taste.

Food prices ranged from $3-$8 and non-alcoholic drinks for around $3. Guests had the option to purchase food passports which enabled them to easily pay for food without having to scrounge for cash. A benefit of buying a passport in denominations of $50+ (in $25 increments) is that you can receive complimentary food/drink or both depending on the amount. Proceeds from the food and drink and also a silent auction will help benefit La Cocina, which is a non-profit food organization that provides affordable commercial kitchen resources enabling assistance to low-income and immigrant entrepreneurs.

Food vendors that participated this year in the event were Absinthe, Aziza, Bi-Rite Creamery, Chaac Mool, Delfina/Pizzeria Delfina, El Buen Comer, El Huarache Loco, Endless Summer Sweets and Ritual Roasters Coffee, Estrellita’s Snacks, Heaven’s Dog/Slanted Door, Kasa Indian Eatery, Laiola, La Mar Cebicheria, Onigilly, Poleng Lounge, Sabores del Sur, and Zella’s Soulful Kitchen.
