Win Dinner for Two at Espetus

On my fridge is a poster that says, “San Francisco is for carnivores.” That’s right. Our city is made for the kind of unrepentant carnivore who dreams of a parade of meat on steely skewers and towers of pork sausages bursting out of their casings.

For one lucky Muni Diaries reader, the awesome folks at Scoutmob have a $100 Espetus gift certificate to give away! Sign up for Scoutmob in February and we will pick a random winner at the end of the month.

So sign up for Scoutmob for a chance to win $100 in a meaty gift certificate!

To get to Espetus: take F, J, K, L, M, N, 71, 21, 47, 49

Muni Diaries Goods: Cheaper, Still Awesome

Our third birthday is coming up this year, and we’ve restocked the Muni Diaries Etsy Store with more Fast Pass Clipper Card Holders and t-shirts! To celebrate our upcoming anniversary, we’re putting everything in the store on sale. While supplies last, take 20 percent off of the Fast Pass T-shirts (designed by Nate1 at New Skool) and Clipper cardholders (crafted by Heather L. of Heathered and designed by Suzanne Lagasa).

The Fast Pass design is also available in baby onesies and adult hoodies at Secession Art and Design.

Check out the Muni Diaries Store 20% off anniversary sale.

Dress Your Clipper Card Up Like a Fast Pass

As convenient as they may be, the Clipper Card hasn’t won any beauty contests. If you’re mourning the loss of our beloved colorful paper Fast Passes, we’ve got something for you: our new Clipper Card holders that actually look like a Fast Pass on the outside! These Clipper Card holders just arrived at the Muni Diaries Etsy shop. They are laminated for durability, and feature two clear pockets inside for your Clipper Card and a few credit cards or IDs.

Each Clipper Card Holder also features a vintage Muni map, showing various San Francisco ‘hoods and old Muni lines alongside those we know and love. Check ’em out:

These Clipper Card holders are lovingly crafted by Heather L. of Heathered and designed by Suzanne Lagasa.

Get them at the Muni Diaries store today!

Immortalize the Muni Fast Pass!

The Muni Diaries Fast Pass T-shirts designed by Nate of New Skool not only make good holiday gifts — they’re also a great way to show your love of the now half-dead San Francisco tradition that was the Fast Pass. Fast Pass cards were a tactile experience (nice to hold those flimsy things in your hands or have them get wet and stop working, right?). But also, discovering each month what the passes’ two colors would be was, shall we say, one of the greater joys of the overall Muni experience?

And now you can wear that experience and remind everyone around you how colorful and cool things were “back in the day.”

Until December 31, the T-shirts are on sale at our Muni Diaries Etsy store: $22 plus shipping.

Also, Secession Art and Design at 3361 Mission St. (across from the 30th St. Safeway in Bernal) carries hoodies, onesies, and some sizes of shirts we’ve run out of. If you’re looking for something to do tomorrow night, drop by Secession’s holiday party Friday from 6:30 to 9:30, get some homebrew, cupcakes, and Fast Pass gear!

It’s not too early to plan your weekend if you want to save a few bucks. This Sunday, you can take advantage of Muni’s Sunday FunDay offer: $2 gets you an all-day pass every Sunday in December.

Which makes it that much easier for you to hop on the J-Church, 14, 22, 33, or 49 to get yourself to Andalu for the Coca-Cola braised short ribs with white bean salad or crispy mac and cheese. Our new deal partner Scoutmob has a 50% off deal available to claim today. Use it for some of Andalu’s Mission-themed cocktails, like the Valencia and the Guerrerro (brandy, scotch, sweet vermouth, and bitters).

You have all today (only!) to get the Andalu deal at Scoutmob — just text it to yourself, and the deal is good for the next three months (saving you up to $30 bucks). Or you can download Scoutmob’s mobile app and get the deal directly on your phone.
