Doggy Bag: The Case for Charity

Our favorite morsel from the blogs.

Good food: Via The Quotidian, a fantastic video on the history and aims of Mission Street Food and Mission Burger. Founder Anthony Myint walks back through the genesis of his idea to launch a charitable food business in the Mission, and how, in a way, Mission Burger represents a certain refinement in Myint's thinking. Mission Burger's "cheap ingredients with a lot of technique applied" (Myint's description), is perhaps a more stable and sustainable model than Mission Street Food, which largely relies on recruiting guest chefs to make the magic happen. The video's about 13 minutes long, but believe us, it's anything but a time suck.
