Grand Coffee Is The Winningest

February 8, 2013

…at life. At coffee. At everything.

I think it’s really impressive how they are working overtime to ensure that they cater to underserved demographics:

hell yes you do, grand coffee.

hell yes you do, grand coffee.

Rumors of a silent partnership between Grand and Siegel’s Clothing have been going around the Mish. Why? Because pimps love coffee. That’s why.

we f*cking love coffee. obv.

we f*cking love coffee. obv.

Another reason Grand is the best? Their dedication to bringing talented artists some limelight. From in-store art installations to give-aways of previously owned copies of Dumb and Dumber, the Grand crew is taking the Mish art scene to new levels:

HURRY! it's filling up!

HURRY! it’s filling up!

I’m entering to win. I’ve been digging through piles of street trash for months looking for a previously-owned copy of Dumb and Dumber. Thank you, Grand, for yet another opportunity to experience greatness.

Literal Double Rainbow

September 5, 2012

This one was a beaut!  It attacked a church and everything. All pictures taken from 24th street.

We know which side the rainbow is on.

This is an ugly picture.

Hot tip: they are filming “Burrito Justice: The Movie” right now at La Taqueria

It looks like there is a big hollywood production going on right now at La Taqueria.  There are costume trucks, actor trailers and cameras, the whole shebang.  Does anyone know who’s acting in the scene?

BREAKING: Sweet Car Crash!

February 22, 2012

Hey Everyone, it’s been a while.  If you haven’t already, check us out on twitter at @omgthemish.  Now enough pandering, time to report some BREAKING NEWS.  At around 10:00pm tonight a trio of youngsters were spotted joyriding around the mission in a stolen car.  They tried to do donuts at 26th and Mission but ended up crashing right into Casa Guadalupe #3 where they only sell day old “pan”.  After the accident, the culprits ran into Lilac Alley and changed clothes.

What is this world coming to when car thieves pack a change of clothes?

Maybe don't buy the cherry tomatoes today.

Way to stick the landing!

KRUA = Suck A$$ Club

December 6, 2011

Oh em gee, Mish-Fish, we are back and… WTF? There are approximately 7 jillion new restaurants blowing up the ‘hood, people with bad clothes are happier than ever, and you still can’t wear red past Cesar Chavez.

Robby and I decided to dive into some Mission mayhem this weekend, so we went to check out the new nightclub, KRUA (just a stroll away at 16th and Guerrero.) Apparently this used to be some lame-ass Thai resto, but we heard that the owners got hip to the needs of the neighbs.  They are def gunning to be the next A1A Steak Lounge.  Natch.

Xanax does NOT REQUIRE SILVERWARE, PPL. ( I can't sit down in this dress ne way.)

Geared up for some srs J-Pop, I decked out in my best six inch sling-backs + tiny tube shirt-dress, picked up Mr. Aberdeen (crucial accessory) and started getting crazy sloppy on those whiskey-filled chocolate balls. (It’s XMAS BIA!) When we got to KRUA, though, I was all “Where’s the line?” For reals, people, there were approximately negative five humans in the place. Maybe has something to do with the fact that they are totes crowding the dance floor w/ weird-ass tables. (Or weird ass-tables?)  Oh and NO LIQUOR? WTF? How am I supposed to get crunk and make out with hella strangerz?

Verdict: KRUA Thai is NOT where the party is at.  Unless you are into free ice water and cracking your shins on aluminum chairs while you get your freak on.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Have a good one Mish Moms!

Choosing a Dentist

March 10, 2010

There comes a time after moving to a new hood that you have to get settled.  For me, this means picking a dentist.  Luckily, I live in the Mish where there is a plethora of dental options all on the same block!

Mission Street’s Dental Dam:  This block on Mission between 20th and 21st houses dozens of dentists and more than one place to give you cavities (I’m looking at you La Quinta!)   Should I pick Gentle Dental?  Maybe Frank H. Chung?  It’s so hard to decide.  To me, dentistry is about aesthetics, so I have narrowed it down to two options.  Alejandro Arce, D.D.S. and the M.J. Bilafer Dental Corporation.

I'm on the fence about this one.

This dentist looks pretty legit.

Each of these places seem to cater to different crowds in the Mish:  A.A. to the tagged up Mission bar bathroom aesthetic and M.J. Corp. to the colorful, modern, corporate graphic designer style.  Which Mish smile should I choose?  I’m still torn!
