San Francisco Bay Area Meetup - No Host Cocktails/Wine and Antipasto

Thursday September 17th

6PM

Cafe Zoetrope

700



One of my favorite buildings in San Francisco is Francis Ford Coppola's majestic Sentinel building housing Cafe Zoetrope. Located between Chinatown and North Beach it is easy to reach.

Best of all, being a true European style cafe it houses everything we need - Food, wine, liquor.

Reservation are made for a table of 12 in the bar area for 6PM. We can handle more.

Come on out and enjoy a Negroni ,Manhattan or perhaps one of Francis's own wines. Arrangements haven't been made for dinner but feel free to order bites off the menu. And, there are plenty of places nearby if one wishes to get adventuresome.

Feel free to invite guests and first time members are always welcome. RSVP's in this thread are appreciated to best manage the arrangements.

Cafe Zoetrope's is a fun, unique shaped building and the menu has nice options for appetizers, wine, beer cocktails. It has an interesting mix of visitors and we can sit outside at tables along the sidewalk while we enjoy our Meetup.

Seriously, I was thinking about a meetup this month, except I was going to suggest Taverna Aventine, which is a stones throw from Zoetrope. Maybe I shall arrive downtown betimes such that I can imbibe at both locals.

There are lots of good options all within a couple of blocks. It is a fun part of town. And, the Meetup can be the beginning of your adventuresome evening. Reminds me of the time I ended up in the Li Po Cocktail Lounge in Chinatown (a couple of blocks away) with some Styleforum members for late night Mai Tais and Chinese whiskey.

Calendar marked. Def up for a drink at Zoetrope but not sure about the Chinatown bar crawl.


btw, I think that's Francis himself sitting at that table in that sidewalk photo.
