Thursday June 11th: Doctors without Borders and Welcome Ministry

This Thursday we are happy to have Douglas Monsalud, who is currently owner/chef of Living Room Events (LRE Catering) and its spontaneous lunch window, KitchenetteSF. Douglas was formerly a chef for the Real Restaurants Group, helping to develop Betelnut, Gordon's House of Fine Eats, & Caffe Museo at the SFMOMA.

A portion of Douglas' proceeds will go to Doctors without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF, no pun intended) is an international medical humanitarian organization working in more than 60 countries to assist people whose survival is threatened by violence, neglect, or catastrophe. Mission Street Food profits will go to the Welcome Ministry, which "seeks to provide a faithful response to homelessness and to improve the quality of life for homeless people by providing: hospitality; food; and referrals for housing, health care and drug and alcohol treatment."
