SUMMARY:An Evening with Chef Tu David Phu\, a San Francisco Chronicle Rising Star Chef: SF Design Week Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:We believe some of the most meaningful connections happen around food. Join us in supporting San Francisco Design Week by reserving your spot for an intimate reception with acclaimed Chef Tu David Phu. All proceeds benefit San Francisco Design Week. \nEnjoy a thoughtfully curated evening with a small circle of local design leaders—taste Chef Tu’s evocative menu\, hear the personal journey behind his celebrated work\, and take home a signed copy of his cookbook\, The Memory of Taste. \nChef Tu and our CEO\, Dawn Zidonis\, first connected during a San Francisco Design Week event years ago—a friendship that blossomed through a shared passion for culture\, creativity\, and community. Their continued collaboration is proof that San Francisco Design Week sparks lasting relationships that enrich our design ecosystem. \nThis special evening marks the close of our 19th Edition and helps fuel our vision for the future as we begin planning our 20th Anniversary in 2026. \nDue to the intimate nature of this event\, only a small amount of tickets are available. \nIncluded in the ticket price: The Memory of Taste Recipe Book\, Meet-n-greet with Chef Tu\, Catered by Gigi’s\, Wine. \nABOUT CHEF TU DAVID PHU: \nChef Tu David Phu\, a San Francisco Chronicle Rising Star Chef and chef-partner at GiGi’s\, a Vietnamese-influenced wine bar in San Francisco\, draws on his Oakland upbringing and the resilience of his refugee parents. His roots trace back to Phu Quoc\, Vietnam\, where his family has crafted artisanal fish sauce since 1895. \nChef Phu’s culinary expertise is a testament to his diverse experiences. He honed his skills in the hallowed kitchens of renowned establishments\, ranging from New York’s internationally acclaimed Daniel to San Francisco’s prestigious 2-star Michelin restaurant\, Acquerello. Throughout his career\, he absorbed the essence of various culinary traditions\, from American culinary excellence to classical European techniques. Yet\, a profound connection to what he calls “the memory of taste” led him back to his Vietnamese roots. \nEmbarking on a culinary exploration of his mother’s treasured recipes\, Chef Tu revisited cherished childhood dishes and embarked on pilgrimages to Vietnam for inspiration. His innovative Vietnamese-California cuisine began to garner recognition in 2016 with his weekly pop-up dining experience\, “Ăn.” In 2017\, the San Francisco Chronicle crowned him as a Rising Star Chef\, marking the beginning of a series of accolades. \nChef Tu’s culinary journey expanded its horizons when he joined Bravo’s Top Chef Season 15 in 2019 and hosted ABC’s Taste Buds: Chefsgiving\, a program that received a James Beard Award nomination. Currently\, he is co-authoring his first cookbook\, titled “THE MEMORY OF TASTE\,” alongside James Beard Journalism Award winner Soleil Ho\, a prominent figure in the culinary world. \n“The Memory of Taste” is not just a cookbook; it’s a celebration of inheritance. It delves into Chef Tu David Phu’s journey as a chef\, emphasizing the invaluable culinary lessons passed down by his parents\, refugees from Phu Quoc. These lessons encompass frugality\, zero-waste cooking\, and practical gill-to-fin eating. The cookbook features a playful collection of California-Vietnamese dishes like tuna summer rolls and 7-Up nuoc cham\, seamlessly integrating Chef Tu’s ambitious and modern culinary style with the food wisdom that nurtured him. \nRegistration:\nRegister through the San Francisco Design Week platform to attend this event.

SUMMARY:One Hat One Hand Design Week Open House
DESCRIPTION:One Hat One Hand\, and newly acquired DEKA Fabrication\, would like to host a Design Week Open House that gives architects\, designers\, brand teams\, and creative partners a rare\, behind-the-scenes look at how complex ideas become real\, buildable work. This is a chance to connect the design community directly with the people and processes that make ambitious projects possible\, from early collaboration and prototyping through fabrication and finishing. By opening our doors\, we’re inviting guests to see what “integrated” really looks like when metal\, wood\, lighting\, and art are coordinated as one cohesive build\, with fewer handoffs and better outcomes. \nGuests will tour the shop\, meet our designers\, metalworkers\, woodworkers\, and project leads\, and see examples of public art fabrication\, integrated lighting projects\, architectural features\, and custom elements built for environments that need to perform and impress. We’ll share materials\, techniques\, and in progress work so visitors can understand how decisions around tolerances\, finishes\, durability\, and installation realities get handled early\, without compromising the creative vision. We’ll wrap the evening with time to mingle and talk projects\, with beverages and food served.
