San Francisco Gayla III: 2/5-2/7/10 - The spectacular threesome
Mark your calendars for San Francisco Gayla III, which will be held Friday 2/5/10 to 2/7/10 on Super Bowl weekend! That is, assuming you didn't drink too much* beer in Munich!
Check out the fun from the last two, and get ready to add a third!
The only returning venue this year with a twist... a name change, larger wine list, and a new menu! Two options: two alcohol or appetizer tickets ($25) or four non-alcoholic drink tickets ($15) which covers the initial space/service/tax. If you'd like to select from the menu beyond the house selections, you may open a tab with the bartenders or purchase more tickets.
~11:00pm - 2:00am Castro bar cruise
Depends on the size of the group, but Trigger and the Cafe are what's hot right now (although the latter seems to draw more commuters). I might be convinced to go to Badlands.

11:30pm - 1:30pm bigguyinpasadena hosts Dim Sum
City View Restaurant - 662 Commercial St (between Kearny & Montgomery) - Yelp!
Please make sure bigguyinpasadena knows you plan to attend
A new venue for this year, it's located right at the MUNI Church metro station across the street from Safeway. They have a large covered heated back patio which will accommodate up to 50 with a no-host bartender (run your own tab). The restaurant recommends we arrive early and enjoy happy hour starting at 5pm! Please bring cash which covers food, service, and tax.
Fixed menu which includes (chose an entree after salad):
Starter/Salad - Baby Mixed Greens, radish, dried cranberries, feta cheese, champagne vinaigrette dressing Choice of single entree below Butternut Squash Ravioli - brown butter, sage, pecorino cheese Fulton Valley Chicken - french green beans, fingerling potatoes, caramelized onions Home's Pot Roast - braised chuck roast, mashed potatoes, gravy, horseradish cream Chicken Pot Pie - braised chicken, sweet peas, carrots, celery, onion, homemade pastry crust
There will be a fish option, market depending
What? Don't eat sushi? That's fine! Barracuda has a wonderful menu that includes a diverse menu of brunch items beyond bento boxes and raw fish. Oh, yeah, and bottomless mimosas!
1:05pm - end of game Super Bowl or something - Wireless' apartment in the Castro or The Lookout if the group is too big
Rumor has it missydarlin's famous mojitos and foady's lychee martinis will be served in large volumes. Donations of light rum or vodka accepted!
7:00pm - midnight Get out of my apartment and let's go to a T-Dance (or Trigger/Badlands/whatever)
DJ Joe Gauthreaux will be in town trying to make the Cafe into a proper T-Dance venue... it hasn't happened yet, still feels like a bar but what the heck. They serve alcohol and they're trying hard!

Marked as tentative in my calendar for now - I can better commit as it approaches. I've never been to San Francisco and I'd love to come down there, meet everyone and experience the city.
