Those looking for a chance to sample many of the Bay Area's restaurants – without actually going to them – need look no further than the annual outdoor FallFest from SF Magazine. On October 11th, Justin Herman Plaza will be morphed into a European-style marketplace filled to the brim with demos, tastings and panel discussions by a myriad of artisan food and winemakers celebrating all things local. SF food editor Jan Newberry and Miss Pearl's Jam House chef/TV personality Joey Altman will host the event, which will offer fare from a slew of restaurants including Anchor & Hope, Asia de Cuba, Foreign Cinema, Ponzu, Sens, Spruce and more; proceeds benefit Meals on Wheels (noon–4 PM; $95 per person includes all access, tasting and a complimentary Riedel glass; 1 Market St., Embarcadero Pl.; to purchase tickets, click here).
