Mark is a 4th generation San Franciscan, so he is truly steeped is the city’s history. Plus he worked in the food industry for decades and does private cooking classes. He does not show off, but guests can totally pick his brain about anything foodie related and he is more than willing to share.
The food focused on Latino dishes, which makes sense, being that it is the Latino neighborhood. From the mission burrito to birria (goat taco), to Mexican pastries and plantain chips and more – everything was tasty. The food is humble and the spots are casual, yet with a great vibe.
A huge part of the tour was looking at the murals. I hadn’t realized just how many there are (and probably still don’t realize). But there are a ton and they are all creative, lively works of art. Lots of bright colors. Mark knows quite a bit about a lot of them, as well as the organization that makes it all happen (from the paint to the hiring the artists). And we wandered in there as well, in between food stops.
This tour was a blend of food, art and history – with more art than you will find in most food tours. But it completely worked to enhance the experience.
