South African Township Barbershops & Salons

South African Township Barbershops & Salons is a compilation of photographs documenting the thriving grooming industry in communities once designated for black occupation by apartheid legislation. As the cultural and social hubs of South Africa's townships, these "informal barbershops" and salons serve not only as places to get your hair styled but as places to come together as a community. In this book, UK-based Simon Weller presents his vivid photographs of these shops and the tradition of sign painting, alongside interviews with the proprietors, customers and the sign makers. Weller - with help from revered South African designer and book contributor Garth Walker - shows the effort put into personalizing salons, from the homemade graphics to a signature style of cut.

Aaron Britt of the SFGate and Dwell Magazine just gave Grant's Golden Brand Pomade a great nod: "My best find, however, was not for the face but for the hair: Grant's Golden Brand Pomade has a gentle almond scent, splendid hold and can be worked and reworked over the course of the day. I found it easier to style with my hands than with a comb."

Read the full SFGate article on mens' grooming products here. Thanks to Aaron Britt, SFGate, and our friends at The Common, where you can find our fine pomade.

Kogi Korean BBQ Taco Truck

not your typical taco truck. the short rib taco. a messy-masterpiece.

the calamari taco with a nice-spice kick.

stay up & stay golden

We've been wanting to try Kogi Korean BBQ Truck for years. We love tacos, love both Korean and Mexican food, and also wanted to see if the food actually lived up to the Kogi mania. So when we were in L.A. last week, this was one of the first places on our list to check out.  Before we talk about the food, we want to start off by saying it's really important to see their twitter updates in addition to the schedule on their website. When we didn't see their truck parked at the location/time they said they'd be at, we started to drive away, but a last minute twitter check on our phone showed they were running about 40 minutes late, so we turned back around and there they finally were. We were especially happy that we were one of the first customers, which meant no insane lines.

We did 3 tacos + 1 drink combo for $7 and got the short rib tacos. We're happy to report that these tacos are indeed worth the chasing around. The short rib (Kalbi) tacos were phenomenal. They didn't skimp on the meat, which was tender and moist, and the vegetables were surprisingly fresh. But really it's all about their sauce: vinegary, sweet and spicy goodness. This sauce will be all over your hands, arms, and face, but that's not such a bad thing. Although not as good as the short rib tacos, the calamari was also very tender, served with a much punchier sauce.

They also have sliders, burritos, and desserts like a Sriracha Bar on their menu. If you're in L.A., go find them. You won't be disappointed.

Monday Kick Start

It's the start of another work week again. Hope you all have a productive one.

And how great are these images created by Kevin Burg and partner Jamie Beck? They've developed this cinemagraph technique where you combine still photographs and videos to create these cinematic Gifs. We love that they've created a new way to represent images in this evolving digital age, yet still presents them from their unique perspective and style.

Zucco Tiny, unpretentious French diner in the heart of the Lower East Side. Quirky owner, good music, hardworking kitchen staff working in a "kitchen" the size of a closet, and most importantly good food.
