Serena, who’s affiliated with Boston Market, wrote in to let me know of their October promotion:
“Think back 80 years to that “other” bad economic time when Herbert Hoover promised “A chicken in every pot, a car in every garage.” Now, as families worry about today’s economy, San Francisco restaurants are courting consumers for their hard-earned dollars in new, inventive ways.
Boston Market for example, is responding with a new (rotisserie) chicken promise of its own.

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

Chapeau!
1408 Clement St
San Francisco, CA 94118
(415) 750-9787
My friends The Asian Marina Couple (TAMC) had gone to Chapeau! a few times (once even for Valentine’s Day) and raved about its French bistro food, the attentive neighborhoody service, and value-oriented prix fixe. Since they’re pretty picky about dining (yet also value-oriented like us GrubGirl groupies), I added Chapeau! to my list of places to check out. Finally I got the gals to go before hitting the Sex and The City movie.

Restaurant Cassis
2101 Sutter Street (at Steiner)
415-440-4500
Woohoo! Cassis has extended their Prix Fixe Early Bird hours this summer, so from 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm Sunday through Thursday (they’re closed Mondays), you can enjoy their French cuisine for $25 per person. It usually ends at 6:30 pm.
True, this is a big jump from the usual Grubgirl price range, however the value of what Cassis offers makes this a true bargain find.
Let’s dive right into the pros and cons:
