Stumbled upon Tropisueno and I can easily call it my favorite Mexican restaurant in the city (I have been there about 15 times in the last 3 months)
Ousted as Mayor at Jeremy’s
Discovered the BEST late night hot dog stand in SF (right in front of 1015 Folsom; bacon wrapped dogs…yum)
The return of Sunday Streets
Discussion of the Warriors moving back to San Francisco (in Mission Rock)
Went to India for two weeks and learned that Taco Bell opened up there AFTER I got back
Launch of the Zip Line to promote Vancouver Tourism
Release of the iPad

SPUD Organic Grocery Delivery Revie

With all the flooding wreaking havoc on the people of San Francisco in the past two weeks, it might be a good time to sign up with a service that delivers fresh organic fruits, vegetables, and a plethora of organic groceries right to your door. Well, I’ve got just the service for you. A San Francisco company called SPUD will do just that. The good folks at SPUD contacted me to see if I was interested in writing a review on their delivery service. I had heard good things about their service, but getting an actual delivery and trying all the goodies they offered was the only way to write a solid review. They told me my delivery day was Tuesday but did not give me a delivery time. Tuesday morning around 10am, I heard a buzz at the door and a friendly SPUD delivery driver was standing there with a box of goodies. To my surprise, I didn’t receive any fruits or vegetables, but instead received a variety of grocery items. Customers can customize what they receive in their deliveries, but I opted to receive a surprise delivery selected by the people at SPUD. There was organic apple juice, a granola bar, chocolate chip cookies, a salad kit, salsa, and chips. After unpacking everything, my eyes were instantly drawn to the homemade chocolate chip cookies. I took a bite and I was in heaven. The cookies are made by a San Jose based company called Kicks Cookies and Ice Cream. I’m a strong believer in supporting my local economy and I really appreciated that 90% of the items were produced within a 50 mile radius of San Francisco. How do I know that you ask? The SPUD website lists the distance all their products travel from the manufacturer to your door. Very cool indeed!

Some cool facts about SPUD:

Spud! is the only 100% neutral online grocer.
Each SPUD delivery van carrying 60 orders takes 120 cars off the road.
Spud! buys fresh every day – 95% of the produce leaves the warehouse within 24 hours.
Any extra food is donated to local hunger relief charities.

My Recommendation: Friendly and clean delivery driver. Great selection of groceries. Focus on locally produced items. Delivered to my door so I don’t have to get soaked in the rain. If you live more than a block away from a Whole Foods, definitely give SPUD a try. You just might fall in love.
