When: Sat., Oct. 6, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The rundown: Nibble on French cheese dishes made by Commonwealth chef Jason Fox, sip French wine for free, and get drunk before noon if you choose -- as far as promotional events go, this one hosted by the French national cheese board sounds pretty cool.

When: Oct. 9-21
Cost: A la carte menu items from $8-24
The rundown: Chef John Farais, a cooking instructor in Marin, translates Native Californian and American ideas from his Indigenous Edibles website into a two-week residency at the Guest Chef.

The rundown: Humphry Slocombe Ice Cream owner Jake Godby has settled into a general array of extremely comforting American food options (including duck fat Chex mix, fried chicken sandwiches, bourbon and Coke floats) for his monthly pop-up at the gay bar Truck. This month, he introduces a new concept for a Blue Plate Special: Recreating the last meal of famous Death Row inmates. He hasn't settled on a serial killer for this month, yet, but tells SFoodie that even if one of his selected victims ate a Big Mac for their last meal, he'll create his own version of it.
