This Thursday (Feb 5), our guest chef will be Jeff Banker, formerly the executive chef of Home restaurant and Home on Union where he won praise from Michael Bauer for his creative twist on comfort food. He has also worked at Acme Chophouse, Bix, the Meetinghouse and Postrio. He is currently a private chef in Woodside and is searching for his dream restaurant in San Francisco with his wife, a pastry chef.
Some of Jeff's profits will go to La Cocina, San Francisco's first incubator kitchen, founded to serve as a platform for low-income entrepreneurs launching, formalizing or expanding their food businesses. MSF profits from the event will go to charity: water which has built 1247 wells in developing nations since 2006, providing clean water for 650,000 people.

Mission Street Food I love you!
A request:
Last week's menu was so awesome - I know you're all guerrilla food nerds in love with weird meat, but I would be super-delighted to see more weeks with vegetarian/vegan food.
Please and thank you.
I will check back every day until my wish comes true!
love Kelly.
I'm thinking dry Riesling with most of the menu, with the exception of the duck pot pie. I might bring an Australian dry Riesling. But you could go with Sauvignon Blanc or bubbly (I'll drink those with nearly everything.)
A junmai sake would also be an interesting choice.
Your braised duck pot pie was so melt-in-your-mouth delicious that I wanted to lick the bowl. Bring it on!
Thank you for a great meal. It was worth the wait. I am going try to copy the brown rice with sesame and avocado dish sometime.
