(Our little red stool set up in Four Barrel’s alley)

We continued our Sunday Brunch series in Four Barrel’s alley and good thing we did! The sun joined us for the entire service, shedding light on our Vietnamese brunch offerings.


(Felicia, our intern, rocking the high up-do and the menu)

Our interns Ella and Felicia came up with the theme of Thức Dậy (thooc-yay) or wake up: We donned on pajamas and loved the extra comfort during service. Now we know why its the choice of clothing for street food vendors in Vietnam. 


(The crew!)

And of course, none of this would have been possible without a great crew and awesome staff at Four Barrel. Thanks for coming out! You can see the full set of photos here.

We’re popping up in Four Barrel’s back alley where they normally serve coffee and espresso drinks during the weekend.

On the menu: Vietnamese Rice Porridge, Banh Mi Opla (Vietnamese Omelette Banh Mi), and Vietnamese yogurt with Frog Hollow Peaches. And of course brunch wouldn’t be complete with Vietnamese Iced Coffee, this time made with Friendo Blendo, Four Barrel’s espresso beans.

We live for brunch. Warm toasty breakfast banh mi and rice porridge to fill your tummy and some Vietnamese coffee and beignets to give you the morning rush.

Last week we did a Sunday Brunch on Valencia where we served up all sorts of breakfast goodies. Don’t fret if you missed it — we’ll be popping up on New Years Day at an industrial space in the Mission for the essential post-NYE brunch. Follow us @ricepapersf or sign up for our email list — we’ll send you the address bright and early, before you wake up (and hopefully not too hung over).

See you Sunday!

In little red stools and sequined party dresses,
