Split Pea will be at the new Stonestown Market every Sunday!
We'll be doing charcoal grilled breakfast and lunch pizzas as well as our delicious soups, house baked cookies, house made granola and of course, our Mr. Espresso drip coffee. We've been at it for a couple of weeks and it's been very well received. As follows are some reviews and information on the market. Hope to see you there soon.

Split Pea Seduction will also have a booth at the Outside Lands 2009! What can be better than three days of incredible music AND awesome farm-fresh food right here in the city at Golden Gate Park. The days of overpriced, nasty festival food are over people. At least in San Francisco. We'll offer our delicious hot and chilled soups as well as spit roasted and charcoal grilled delights, fresh market salads and good old ice cold sweet tea! Come look for us in the farmers market area. As follows is information on the culinary delights featured that weekend.

That's it for now. Thanks so much for all your support!

Split Pea Seduction and Other Local Restaurants Cater Outside Lands 2009!

2009 OUTSIDE LANDS - A TASTE OF THE BAY AREA

One of the things that makes San Francisco and the Bay Area so great is the food. Considered by many to have the best restaurants in the world, the Bay Area's cuisine is as eclectic and adventurous, as the people that eat it. From the Mission's taquerias to dim sum in Chinatown to the nouveau California cuisine that defines many area restaurant menus, there is no comparison anywhere. Fresh, locally grown organic produce and meat is not a trend here, but a staple to the food scene.

At the Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival we are going above and beyond the standard festival food by engaging our cities food resources. We want to showcase the food and the local restaurants that make the Bay Area murmur a collective Mmmm. You will be able to get freshly shucked oysters from Hog Island Oyster Company, grab a skewer of grilled beef and chicken from Asqew Grill, try Maverick’s famous pulled pork sandwich, wolf down a burrito from Gordo’s, or taste Hawaiian poke from Pacific Catch. And of course, you can still get a hamburger or hotdog, but both will be organic farm-raised meat with locally grown lettuce and tomato.

Make sure you come to the festival hungry, because the food will certainly satiate you as much at the music!
