SF Street Eats 2011: World Famous Chefs Cooking International Street Foods

 SF Street Eats 2011 at the Ferry Building

On most Sundays, San Francisco’s historic Ferry Building closes shop at 5 p.m. Vendors go home after a long day of primping artisan cupcakes or pumping organic smoothies, and visitors walk off with an eco-friendly bag full of produce or a bellyful of some of SF’s best gourmet grub. For one night in September though, the Ferry Building’s staying open late–‘cause OneVietnam’s taking it over. And if you thought day time at the Ferry Building was a foodie’s paradise, just come see what awaits you at Street Eats, OneVietnam’s first ever charity gala.

Foodie Paradise

Some of San Francisco’s top chefs will be there to roll up their sleeves and inject a high-end twist to their favorite street foods in support of OneVietnam’s charity initiative.  The event is chaired by Charles Phan, whose Slanted Door and Out the Door restaurants are consistently named among the most popular restaurants in San Francisco and all of California.

Among the many highlights, the Street Eats Charity Gala will feature three Michelin-starred chefs Mourad Lahlou, Hiro Sone and Lissa Doumani; the Nom Nom Truck, a finalist in season one of The Food Network’s The Great Food Truck Race; and Humphry Slocombe (NY Times Review), which SF Weekly and SFoodie declare the best ice cream in San Francisco.

The long list of famed chefs slated to appear include:

  • Hiro Sone and Lissa Doumani, Ame  (Michelin-starred)
  • Khai Duong, Ana Mandara
  • Mourad Lahlou, Aziza (Michelin-starred)
