I ate at the counter at Zante’s last night and it was pretty fun, and it reminded me of the time I did it 9 years ago, and blogged about it here:

You get to watch the hustle and bustle, and if you order Zante’s “Best Indian Pizza” by the slice, your slice comes out hotter and crisper and more fully loaded than usual. Also, they have Lowenbrau.

I didn’t notice any Lowenbrau, but other than that it’s all still true I think, and now my phone takes way better pics.

Capp Street Crap has the scoop:

Inspired by the success of Indian pizza in the city, Bissap Baobob owner Marco Senghor has converted his second space in the Mission into a pizza restaurant that offers three Senegal-inspired pies alongside traditional flavors.

Read on for lots more info. (It’s open “5pm-2am most days.”)

You love his photographs of San Francisco and the Bay Area. Now you can own a taste of the work he’s done down in Mexico, while also helping those in need:

All profits will be donated to Mexican earthquake relief efforts through Oxfam. Oxfam has pledged to direct 100% of donated funds to support services and relief and recovery efforts in affected areas. Please choose the product with the amount you would like to donate. If you would like to donate more than $100, please do it directly with an organization and send proof of payment to thetenssf@gmail.com and I will ship you a zine.

Zines are 40 pages of color photographs I took in Mexico from 2014 through 2017. Zines will ship beginning the first week of October.
