Another wonderful repast was held at the St. Francis Yacht Club in San Francisco. It had been many years since the last one was held here, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Special thanks to Beth DeAtley, VP-Repast, for organizing the event, and to Steve Smith, for the excellent wine pairings. The weather was wonderful so those that got there early got to enjoy a beautiful sunset from this outstanding location:
Here is the special menu for the evening:

About the St. Francis Yacht Club
It was founded in 1927 by a group of 21 San Francisco Yachtsman with a vision of a club in the City. Ground was broken for the clubhouse that year, and events were held on members yachts until the club was formally opened in 1928. The clubhouse provides a boating and social venue for our members and their guests. It features large deep-water guest docks, outstanding dining and incredible vistas of the Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco Bay. This is the premier location to view yacht racing on the renowned City Front. The Club’s annual calendar includes a wide variety of social events from theme parties, and winemaker dinners, to cruises both locally and far away.
