Today is the last day of the Taste of Greece Festival, a celebration of food, wine, music and dancing held at Annunciation Cathedral, located at 245 Valencia Street. If your plans don’t take you to the Folsom Street Fair, the Mission Bicycle Block Party or somewhere else to soak in the September sun, perhaps some tasty Greek treats will call your name, instead.
Life-long Bay Area resident Ashwin Seshagiri moved to the Mission last year to pursue journalism professionally. Though at times cynical about the familiar haunts, he manages to uncover delightful surprises in the neighborhood’s interiors. When he’s not exploring, Seshagiri might be found playing bocce ball at Precita Park or making the devilish drive down Route 1 to Half Moon Bay.
