I was in San Francisco Thursday to see a new movie on the Dipsea Race. Had some time to kill, so went to the Honda dealership at Market & Van Ness to look at a Honda Fit — which may turn out to be the car I get. Was hungry, and got a taco at this stand at Mission and South Van Ness, and it was great. $5 for taco, soft corn tortillas (2) with chicken and manzana apple soda. I’d think all the other things they serve here would be good too (including hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, salads). Street food!
About Lloyd Kahn
Lloyd Kahn started building his own home in the early '60s and went on to publish books showing homeowners how they could build their own homes with their own hands. He got his start in publishing by working as the shelter editor of the
Whole Earth Catalog with Stewart Brand in the late '60s. He has since authored six highly-graphic books on homemade building, all of which are interrelated. The books, "The Shelter Library Of Building Books," include
Shelter,
Shelter II (1978),
Home Work (2004),
Builders of the Pacific Coast (2008),
Tiny Homes (2012), and
Tiny Homes on the Move (2014). Lloyd operates from Northern California studio built of recycled lumber, set in the midst of a vegetable garden, and hooked into the world via five Mac computers. You can check out videos (one with over 450,000 views) on Lloyd by doing a search on YouTube:

These are sort of like the Shrimp Trucks in Hawaii.
