Off the Grid at Fort Mason is street food at its finest. Every Friday night, 30 different food trucks and tents from around the Bay Area form a massive circle in the Fort Mason parking lot and dish up some of the tastiest treats around. Off the Grid is a great al-fresco night out in San Francisco. Fort Mason located in the Marina district directly on the bay so you can simultaneously enjoy your $3 taco and world class views. Its a great alternative to the same old expensive Friday night restaurant dinner and has all the same features; food, booze and music.
Off the Grid offers an assortment of dishes from Korean Tacos to satay to crme brulee. The average vendor line-up includes Bay Area favorites such as Chairman Bao, Curry Up Now, Little Green Cyclo, The Taco Guys, Happy Dumplings, and Cupkates. In addition to the delicious bites, beer and wine is also for sale and at a very reasonable price.
The event has become quite popular since it hit the scene in 2009. The best time to come and avoid the dreaded lines is opening at 5pm and after the families leave at 8pm. The average line at a popular vendor is usually 15-20 minutes during peak hours. The band kicks in around 7pm and adds a festive twist to the eating outside experience. "The essential to budget travel is to prepare onward. When it comes along to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved vacations and/or going to see new places we have never been before, the truth of expense and budgeting is always in the back of our minds. Planning and consuming our travel budget carefully is a consideration for most families. Lowering expending and prices, while still delighting your vacation to its fullest, is the key to confirmed accomplishment and fiscal responsibility. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought regarding saving money while journeying is simple: Even if your personal funds is really small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also remembering that while traveling, regardless of whether on a finances or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel costs!..". Chairs and some creative make-shift tables are set up in the center of the ring so you can sit and savor your steamed dumpling or pork belly bun. Chairs get snatched up quick so customers are also welcome to bring their own folding beach chairs.
