The Taste Pavilions present an unprecedented opportunity to sample the regional foods of America, with products from every state hand-picked by ‘curators’ who are nationally recognized experts in a particular type of food.

organized into 15 distinct pavilions within the 50,000 square foot pier at Fort Mason. each pavilion will offer 2 types of food plates, flights + snacks, + connect visitors with the artisans’ process via unique displays + demonstrations. Strawberries + cream will be hand-cranked into ice cream at the Ice Cream Pavilion; stuffed breads + pizzas will be baked outside in the tandoori + wood-burning ovens of the Bread Pavilion; quick pickles will be brined at the Pickles & Chutney Pavilion. The Taste Pavilions represent Beer, Bread, Charcuterie, Cheese, Chocolate, Coffee, Fish, Honey + Preserves, Ice Cream, Native Foods, Olive Oil, Pickles + Chutney, Spirits, Tea + Wine.

to provide a backdrop to the unique and delicious foods, the bay area’s most celebrated architects have worked pro-bono to design the Taste Pavilions.

the slow food rocks festival looks great + there will be lots of free slow food events around the city like the market place + victory gardens at the civic center. some downtown streets will be blocked off for san francisco sunday streets, a big free block party for pedestrians, cyclists, cyclists, hula hoopers... to enjoy the streets with physical activity.
