Dear Loyal Tasty Customers,

Tasty management would like to welcome you this Sunday, June 8, to our third summer season of presenting the finest al fresco Beats and Eats to our friends and yours. After a stellar sophomore summer, featuring gourmet DJ’s like Beatbroker, Mochipet, Kid Kameleon, Jimmy Love, Pickpocket, Ripley, & D, in addition to residents Amit, Christian, Poolboy, and Brent Hall, and delectable dishes like the famed Chef Christian’s Fried Chicken and Hog Island oysters, we’ve got more of the same on tap for season 3. This season we plan to bring Tasty out to Burning Man, so all of our events will double as fundraisers, with any donations from you going towards our playa camp.

For you Tasty first-timers, Tasty is: DJ-driven beats from across the musical spectrum, delectable eats from our resident chefs, laidback afternoons in Golden Gate Park spent with our friends and family and yours, a picnic potluck where we encourage you to contribute something of your own creation, a damn fine time.

Sincerely, Tasty Management
