At our upcoming event CONSPIRE, we’re serving up soup shooters from The Pearl, meatballs from The Linkery, and chips and guacamole mixed up from Whole Foods‘ local and organic avocados. For your next culinary adventure, s143 personally recommends these fine San Diego eateries:

the-pearl-hotel

The restaurant at The Pearl Hotel in Point Loma crafts true culinary delights from local and seasonal ingredients. (Try the mushroom risotto or the burger with gouda and pommes frites.) You can drink and dine poolside at this ultra-chic mid-century modern hang out. Head over on a Wednesday and catch the weekly “Dive In” movie on the big screen above the vintage oyster-shaped pool, or get a room to enjoy the intimate old school California ambiance a little longer.

the-linkery

The Linkery is a farm-to-table restaurant in North Park with a neighborhood feel and people with a contagious passion for their food and drink. Ask them where your meal came from. They will tell you. You’ll be tantalized by their house made sausages and revolving menu and feel good about their support for local farms, breweries, and wineries. Give the grilled green beans a try, and visit Jay’s blog to satisfy your inner foodie.


stehly-farms

The neighborhood Hillcrest Whole Foods Market, dedicated to satisfying and delighting the community with the highest quality natural and organic foods, welcomes CONSPIRE guests to taste some local delicacies. Valley Center’s Stehly Farms will be providing organic avocados for guacamole, and you might also develop an addiction for chips and salsa from family owned Tacupeto of North County. Also an exciting find: organic, vegan yerba mate teas from Guayaki, a solar powered company committed to fair trade and sustainability.

For s143′s San Diego weekend picks, DEFINITELY stop over to one of s143′s fave shops Subtext in Little Italy (680 W Beech St.) on Friday 10/10 6-10 pm for the Lost at Sea opening for CJ Metzger and Miss Mindy — an aquatic art adventure.

This is a big one… You’re going to have to multi task, people, because also on Friday from 6-10 pm fellow evolutionary artist collective, the Adapta Project, hosts Marking Territory at UCSD’s The Loft, designed by San Diego master designers Bells & Whistles.


On Saturday (especially if you loved Jorge’s Reinventing the Wheel piece), check out artist Jorge Tellaeche’s The Origin exhibit at 4 Walls in North Park from 7-10 pm.

That vintage pedicab that’s seen better days gets transformed for Reinventing the Wheel as Acamonchi adds on the next layer of paint and the first of many (we’re assuming) stencils. Thanks to Artist & Craftsman Supply for the awesome paint donation and Velo Culture for the loving repairs! (Check out more photos.)

After a generous donation from our friends down at Artist & Craftsman Supply in San Diego, Acamonchi was locked and loaded with 8 cans of Montana Gold and the blank canvas of a reclaimed pedicab waiting for its moment to become art for the upcoming Reinventing the Wheel show.

That moment has officially begun, as Acamonchi laid down the first few psychedelic layers of paint today.

Enjoy, fellow Sanctuarians!
