그룹 소개
This group is for visiting San Francisco Bay Area restaurants and other events that have foodie interest or a food centric theme. Such as food and wine festivals, Eat, Drink San Francisco, the San Francisco Chocolate Festival and San Francisco Street Food Festival.
While food and beverages are of primary importance, this is a social group for having fun, making new friends and keeping touch with others, trying something new, or visiting an old favorite, yet again. Join with a friend or two, or eat with strangers and find common and uncommon feasts of food, conversation and an occasional butterfly.

Please be prompt or message your host directly (perhaps use the new chat feature) comments are delayed by as much as an hour. Dress is usually casual, use your own judgement, on a rare occasion a jacket, dress or no shorts may be required. And please take pictures of your food and upload them to our group, San Francisco Foodies maintains that the photographer maintains ownership of their art. If you want to take pictures of guests please remember to ask their permission before. Bullying and derogatory remarks are causes for removal from an event and this group. Not paying for your ordered items most likely will result in legal action.
Administrative Trivia
There are no dues. However some events require a deposit for joining. A deposit is spent toward an attendee’s bill (restaurants sometimes charge a deposit from $5, $50 or the entire cost of a meal and beverage $400).
Events are usually free to attend but each member and their guests pay for their respective meals, drinks, some events have split appetizers or family style meals where each person pays the same price and all share the meal. These details are in each event. Restaurants usually charge city tax and a mandatory gratuity. In San Francisco a percentage for employee insurance. Expect 30% to 35% added to your order.
Some Events ask for attendees to prepay a portion of any deposits or venue costs. These are paid events.
Nonprofit Fundraisers are where a donation is requested, a nonprofit is selected, usually rated 100% (some local charities are not nationally rated but all of their donations are 100% used to support their activities). For our events San Francisco Foodies asks donations to be given to the nonprofit directly, any donations collected are forwarded (100%). These are also marked as paid events.
Event Organizers are unpaid volunteers, however, some may charge a fee. Those will be paid events and full disclosure of where fees go are in each event's description. San Francisco Foodies is always looking for new volunteers as organizers and adding new events.
Use of Meetup Comments and Chat for spam is forbidden. Suggesting events is encouraged. If the event is in another group please contact an event organizer to co-host with our group. Much better to become an event organizer with our group and host an event yourself.
Be Well, #Eat San Francisco.

GIGI's
Tu David Phu, a former “Top Chef” contestant and cookbook author (with former San Francisco Chronicle Food Critic Soliel Ho) opened Gigi's, a wine bar on San Francisco's Divisadero's corridor, six months ago (November 2024). Chef Tu learned in the Michelin starred kitchens of NYC's Daniel and San Francisco's beloved Acquerello.They have a short rotating menu featuring a waygu hot dog that reminded Chef Tu of his childhood memories of eating Costco Hot Dog's in Oakland where he was raised, (as seen in the event photo).
Menu and amazing reviews below, along with a link to buy his cookbook.
Note: San Francisco Foodies does not receive compensation from these events or from advertising like this cookbook.

I haven't been to Gigi's, but Bravo's Top Chef is one of my guilty television pleasures these places between places hopefully last forever, but if they follow the usual ex-top chef model they'll move on (up) in a couple years, but they'll leave a trail of memories and hopefully a place we can reminisce.
No Man's Land*, the Divis Corridor* is a hot spot for new restaurants and innovative chef's in San Francisco, and Gigi's is a little off this well driven path at Paige and Divisadero, but looks like embodies the fell and love.
It's a work night, so I'll probably skip drinking. Looking forward to my first wine bar event.

I calculate each diner's orders separately unless they allow separate orders, separate checks, the meal is shared or family style, and round up.

- Del Popolo: Table for 10 (Private Dining Outside)Del Popolo, San Francisco, CA
Del Popolo
Del Popolo launched as a mobile pizzeria in May of 2012, churning out Neapolitan-inspired pizza from a glass enclosed shipping container on a Freightliner truck.In November 2015, we opened our brick-and-mortar restaurant, featuring the same naturally-leavened, wood-fired pizza we’ve obsessed over since 2012, along with market-driven antipasti and a curated list of wine and beer.
from restaurant website.Well, here I am trying to sell you on going to eat Pizza. Our estemed host Thuy has a schedule of lauded, amazing pizza places in San Francisco and I encourage you to seek out those, because they rank among my favorites also.
What makes Del Popolo special?
Food and Wine ranked them as number five (5) in the Nation. Placing among other bay area establishments they rank in the top 50 best in the World and best in the US. Michelin the famed restaurant guide recognizes Del Popolo. Local critics at San Francisco Chronicle, SF Eater, basically all of them recognize this is a place to eat.
But me? Their website says they first froze pizza's in 2019, seems much longer than that, but I was probably late to the party. One day at Bi-Rite Grocery I picked up a frozen pizza, something fast to cook when I didn't have time, and a vegetarian one to boot, but it looked good. Del Popolo simply calls this Potato. Made with Yukon Gold Potatoes, Onions and Rosemary, if I was a better writer angels would blast trumpets when this is said out loud, flutes would sing quietly as those words are read, but i can only say simply no better frozen pizza - and better when baked fresh. If there is a hidden Pizza guide, Del Popolo's have found the one.
Hand tossed crust, crispy, stretchy and tasty, special ingredients for each one and a list of other amazing dishes, I hope you will not be disappointed. Each Pizza is large enough for one person to eat and take some home, or share. Perfectly sized.
