MOONWALKING
Shoot the Moon Party at Photobooth
It’s common knowledge that the best time to celebrate Valentine’s is not on Valentine’s. So getting a
jump start on the festivities with gratis cocktails here is the way to go. After a few shochu drinks, posing
with your date atop a quarter moon will seem like a good idea. Shochu has a funny way of doing that.

NAKED AND FAMOUS
Erotic Photography Exhibition
When coming to an erotic photography exhibit of epic proportions (think more than 400 photos by 25 different
artists), you’ll want to keep an open mind. Everything from fine art or relatively tame black-and-whites
to extreme close-ups will be on display for sale. Although, it is hard to put a price on art...

DRAGON LADY
Drinking Chinese Cuvée for the New Year
In honor of the city’s official Lunar New Year celebration, this subterranean drinking den is toasting the
Year of the Dragon with flutes of Iron Horse winery’s Chinese cuvée. Festivities here start early enough
for a few rounds before the parade kicks off at 5:15pm. You never parade on an empty stomach.

RICE PADDIES
Chicken Meatball Sandwiches at 903
Sandbox Bakery got you hooked on their fried chicken sandwiched between a “bun” made with rice
patties—along with morning buns and croissants. But what this sister café has going for it (on top of
fried-chicken rice burgers) is that it actually has chairs and tables. The power of furniture shouldn’t be
ignored.

GARDEN OF EDEN
Beer Garden Dinner with Brewtruc
Seven ales and five courses sounds like the scales are tipped in the right direction for this beer-paired
dinner. The Brewtruc will serve as the outdoor bar during dinner, then it’ll transform into a chariot
chauffeuring you to some of the finest alehouses in the Haight. Like magic...
