Fwd: March 28th, 6:30pm. Foie Gras Protest at Incanto, calls needed!

[Guest guest]

I plan on attending this, especially after reading the article on Incanto's

website! I'd like to protest at Ti Couz in The Castro sometime also, as I'm

interested in reaching out to my LGBT community to increase its awareness of

compassion for others.

Hello everyone,

I am working with APRL (http://aprl.org/) to stop the service of foie gras

in San Francisco.

We are staging our first foie gras protest on Saturday, March 28th at 6:30pm

at Incanto restaurant in San Francisco (1150 Church Street at Duncan in Noe

Valley). We need numbers to make this protest effective & gain media

attention, so I hope that you can all spare an hour or two for this worthy

cause.

 

Recently, the chef of Incanto decided to rant about foie gras on his

website, and it was picked up by two news outlets. See

here<http://www.incanto.biz/letters_-_shock_and_foie.html> for

his rant and then

here<http://www.eatmedaily.com/2009/03/anti-foie-gras-protesters-threaten-chris-\

cosentino/>

and

here<http://dinersjournal.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/03/09/foie-gras-coke-and-a-big-\

tip/>

for

the news coverage.

Calls are needed to let the restaurant know the chef's views on foie gras

are not acceptable or commonplace. Please call them at 415-641-4500.

 

I hope to see everyone on the 28th!

Melisser
