Tasty Lunar New Year: Tickets, potluck, and more reasons to come

While a new year’s behind us, another’s just about to get started. Tasty’s first-ever Lunar New Year party goes down next weekend — Saturday, January 14 — at The Study in the city of Richmond, and you’re invited!

TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE (AND REQUIRED!)
Thanks to all of you who have bought tickets and wine already. Because of your contributions, we’ve hit our minimums and it’s all systems go. The wine’s being bottled, the music locked, and the lanterns lit!

For those of you that haven’t bought your tickets yet, now’s the time! We’ve got a special evening in store and lots of Tasty family and friends of, old and new, will be coming out. And for those of you who want to know if friends are invited, most definitely.

BRING SOMETHING FOR THE POTLUCK
Did you know, Tasty got its start with Golden Gate Park potluck parties way back in 2006? We’ll be bringing it back this evening for a dinner extravaganza, with your help!
For those of you coming, here’s a note from our potluck lead Kinnari:
“A big thank you to those of you that have added your name and dish to the potluck list. Everyone else – please take some time this weekend to think about what tastylicious dish you’ll be adding to the potluck. You’ll be adding to our lunar party spread. We’re counting on ya’ll to keep our bellies happy through the night.”

WHAT TO WEAR
First off, it’s been ages since we’ve had a proper night out. Get those sweats off and get your style on! For optimal success in the new year, red and gold are the way to go. When you’re perusing your wardrobe, just remember rockin’ red and gold means fortune in the new year.

TEST NEGATIVE BEFORE COMING
For the safety of our community, we request everyone take a negative Covid test before coming. The space is a large and airy warehouse with high ceilings and good ventilation. We’ll have multiple rooms including an outdoor space (pray for no rain!) with a firepit. And kudos to us, throughout the pandemic, we’ve had no Covid incidents at a Tasty event. Let’s keep it that way.

REASONS TO COME

  • James Cobo up from LA ready to throw down! DJ Heidi’s Tasty debut! The return of the Sockpuppet Soundsystem!
  • The Bamboo Lantern! Dang that’s good!
  • Free-flowing wine from one of the best natural winemakers around!

The Eclipse is Coming but so is Camp Tasty

Another reminder for all of you fence-sitters for Camp Tasty! I know it’s a busy month, this is my last missive before hitting the road for Oregon Eclipse and the Burn is right after for some of you, but hopefully you can find a few minutes to register. We’re trying to lock down this year’s inimitable Tasty schwag and also to finalize food count for the caterers.

That being said, we know some of you can’t make a decision till closer to the time. Let us know as soon as you can, it’s more important that you come than anything. We’ll make sure you’re taken care of regardless, up to the last minute. But even if you can give us an idea, that will help.

Carpools
In need of a ride or can you give one? Please fill out the carpool google doc if you have room in your car or if you need a ride.

Start Hunting for Strange Brews
This year we’ll be doing a strange brew/booze tasting Friday night. Bring something hard-to-find, possibly hard-to-drink or just something most everyone hasn’t ever tried. Sour kombucha, Chinese baiju, Mexican sotol, bizarre beer, or a $1000 bottle of wine! Anything folks haven’t seen much of will do!

Items to Borrow
We’d love to borrow the following items, if you have them:

  • lights- to decorate your tent, walkway or camp area.
  • extension cords- for lighting and tunes.

Please don’t forget to put your name on these items!
