SF tatcon- restaurant recommendos

[Lizzie]

I know my tattoo friends like to eat so why don't we set em up with some places they may like to meet for eats... I always appreciate a good meal recommended by a local whe I'm on the road...

I mist recommend pulcinella's in little Italy. Their food blew my mind. And they seemed under-frequented. Some group of hungry bearded tattoo dudes need to go rack up a bill there and fill their tummies with the best pizza outside of Naples...

Anyway, wish I was there to meet up with all you guys for great after work eats!

i like cha cha chas on upper haight. good cuban food and really good sangria by the pitcher

i also like ali babas on lower haight. its quicker and more low key. but their chicken kabob plate is really good. lots of food for the buck.

on the junk food end i like the metro. its on filmore and haight. thier cheese steak with hot and sweet peppers and chili fries... foregetaboutit. but there really isnt room for a bunch of tatbros to sit down in there. really small.

one thing though, the convention is near the airport with is in like south city. the actual city is a handful of highway exits up. i dont know shit about south san francisco

farmer brown on mason @ market st is good for fresh gourmet soul food.

[Juan Puente]

their are too many good ones for sure so i will pick the neighborhood the shop is in. Delphina pizzeria and restaurant, Rosemunde sausage grill, Luna Park, Cha ya, and pancho villa. Enjoy

Mmmm fooood

As long as Julio is mentioning lower haight you can't forget Memphis Minnie's. Damn good bbq!!!

[Lizzie]

I know people don't have a lot of time for planning whe they're already working a convention but with this crazy economy, if you're going to spend a huge bill with a lot of tatbros, just a suggestion to consider racking up that bill at a mom and pop place that will not only give you the treatment of a lifetime but who needs that guest cheque to stay afloat into better times!

...I don't know all the places mentioned above so this is in no way a comment on those places mentioned; just a thought.

So the weekend of the tattoo convention has passed and I wish I could have made it but school got in the way so where'd everyone eat?

[Mr. Frog]

The only place I made it to was Lulu. It was pretty good. Mussels, Truffle Fries, Buffalo Burgers, and a special dessert tray. We probably got a little spoiled, because my friend's wife works there. I would go back just for the mussels. Yum!

[Mr. Frog]

Oh wait..I'm so out of it. Went to Tres Agaves too. Guac. was great. Also enjoyed some Al pastor tacos.

Chez Panisse with the lovely Collelas!

[Nick Colella]

aaah yes Chez Panisse was rad with Scott and Dari and then took a trip to The French Laundry as well with Chad and some other friends..they where both incredible meals but the company couldnt be beat!!!!

[tammy]

so nick, i want to know in detail what you all ate. with 2 little ones i have not been hitting the restaurants and i fantasize about going out to french laundry but a 3+ hour dinner is not going to fly with the rugrats.

i also wanted to add, i have thomas kellers fried chicken recipe and it is AWESOME if anyone wants it...
