Top Chef: We Left Our Knives In San Francisco

Man, we loved last season of Top Chef. So much so, that we're gonna keep writing about it, even though it's made the move to Los Angeles. Top Chef, for those who don't know, is a show on Bravo that's basically The Apprentice with less jargon, more food, and a lot less suckage. And it used to be based here in our fair city. Alas . . . In any case, it airs every Wednesday night; due to our inability to write quickly, we've committed to posting reviews of the prior week on the day that the new episodes are set to appear, to hype lovers of food-based TV for that night. more ›

Wednesdays, the New Apocalypse

Wednesdays, the New Apocalypse

wz05.logo.80s.date.200.v2 Big ups to SFist Eve for this week's Wednesdays post title! Wednesday: Get all in the Wednesday SFist Reads mood with a cavalcade of options: Barbara Ehrenreich at Clean Well-Lighted (7:00), a Dr. Atomic discussion at City Lights (7 p.m.), Caroline Kennedy at Grace Cathedral via Books Inc. (7:30, $25 tickets at Books Inc.), Terry Pratchett at Cody's on Telegraph (7:30), and Salman Rushdie at the Herbst Theater (8:00, buy tickets here). Thursday: our biggest local purveyors of hip classical music, the Kronos Quartet, kick off the first of two shows to support their new album of Bollywood standards at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. The divine Asha Bhosle will be singing, and classical Chinese pipa-ist (that's the new Gothamist site, we know it!) Wu Man will play as well. Friday: You're going to our Webzine kickoff party, right? Right? SFist's hosting Webzine 2005's kickoff party at Cafe Du Nord, from 8-10 p.m.. Everyone's invited, even if you're not going to Webzine itself. Come by, check out our cool DJs, meet your favorite staffer, and see what SFist-themed toys we can scrounge up by then! (Contrary to rumors, we will not have a cardboard picture of Chris Daly for you to take pictures with. We will have Mrs. Chris Daly shirts for sale, though! Well, maybe we'll have them for sale. Hey, can we borrow your car to drive the Mrs. Chris Daly t-shirts over to Cafe Du Nord on Friday night?) Got an event you want to tell us about? Go right ahead! more ›
