30% Off Your Thanksgiving Turkey

This year, you’re getting the most prized breed of turkeys—a USDA Grade A, all-natural beauty from Robinson’s—delivered, for 30% off. And since you’ll need something to carve it with, we’re getting you up to 64% off the sharpest knives on earth. And, not Thanksgiving-y, but still: some handsome, exclusive vintage furniture.

Gangnam Style, the Restaurant
POP ROCKS

Gangnam Style, the Restaurant

It’s called K-pop. It’s Korean pop music, and it’s huge right now. Also: it’s a new restaurant. It serves homemade dishes like bibimbap and Korean fried chicken, and once they get their liquor license, expect soju served out of melons. Psy wants you to have this.

Now open, K-Pop, 499 Castro St (at 18th), 415-252-9500

ON A BOAT

Spending Election Night on a Yacht

What FDR and Elvis have in common: basically nothing, other than this 165-foot yacht. On Tuesday, you’ll have full run of it with election updates, endless wine and a patriotic buffet spread of fried chicken and creamy mashed potatoes. Hey, if it’s good enough for presidents and the King...

Wednesday
Drinks, DJs and Movember
FASHION FORWARD

Drinks, DJs and Movember

Come Wednesday, there’ll be drinks. There’ll be bands. There’ll be DJs. There’ll be... fashion. Local guys will be sporting gear from the likes of Self Edge, Freemans Sporting Club and Department Seventeen. Proceeds benefit Movember. Make Tom Selleck proud.
