David wrote in to tell me about a free food event on September 15 in San Francisco’s Cow Hollow district.
From the looks of what he wrote, we’re talking some Tiger Beer samples, free curry samples, and even a little massage. Tiger Beer is from Singapore (home of Raffles Hotel, the Merlion, and the Singapore Sling cocktail), and I think this is a big marketing push to build brand awareness in SF, or the States as a whole.
“Tiger Beer an award-winning gold medal lager from Singapore and perfect
pairing for spicy foods, is proud to sponsor a month long Curry

LimeTree

If you work or live near UCSF, you probably already know about this place. Me, I heard about this from a friend and ventured over to taste what I thought was going to be a Thai restaurant. Turns out this is more than just Thai food - LimeTree serves a combination of Thai, Indonesian, Malaysian, and Singaporan (?) and Filipino dishes at decent prices.

I finally got a chance to attend the wonderful SF Dives Meetup gang that recently held an event at this Thai restaurant in the Tenderloin. Dragging Ms. Stein with me since I had no idea what to expect, we cautiously drove past the Mitchell Brother’s theater and tiptoed into this place.

I got this from a former co-worker…and it she’s right — it tastes like the stuff in restaurants.
You have to have access to an Asian grocery store to get the tea ingredients. In San Francisco, try the “New May Wah” grocery store on Clement Street.
Ingredients:
1 c. loose Thai tea
1/3 c. jasmine tea
8 c. boiling water
1 c. sugar for sweetness (vary according to taste)
Add the tea to the boiling water and keep at a low boil for 5 minutes.
Add sugar.
Pour into a pitcher and chill.
Add a little Half & Half into each serving to taste.
