      <title>Freekeh Out Night: A Middle Eastern Feast! (July 15, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wednesday, July 15, 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img src="https://maxsf.org/resources/Pictures/Appetizers%201.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Freekeh Out Night: A Middle Eastern Feast!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Get ready to Freekeh Out with us at &lt;strong&gt;Freekeh&lt;/strong&gt;,&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;the vibrant Middle Eastern gem in the heart of the Mission that’s turning heads with its bold, soulful flavors!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Join event champions &lt;strong&gt;Elie Abijaoude&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Jerry Tusan&lt;/strong&gt; on &lt;strong&gt;Wednesday, July 15&lt;/strong&gt;, for an unforgettable group dinner. Arrive early for a &lt;strong&gt;lively social from 6:00 to 6:30 PM&lt;/strong&gt;;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;perfect for catching up with a glass of wine as we kick things off. Then settle in as the feast begins! Expect a delicious, family-style spread chosen by the chef:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;A colorful collection of appetizers — think a vibrant mezze that includes Middle Eastern creamy hummus, smoky baba ghanoush, crispy falafel.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;A parade of savory main courses — juicy skewers, flavorful kofta, tender grilled meats, hearty vegetarian option, and fragrant freekeh grain dish bursting with herbs, spices, and Levantine soul.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;A sweet finish with a choice of desserts.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We’ll be supplying the wine to keep the glasses flowing and the conversations sparkling.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is more than just dinner — it’s a warm, lively celebration of great food, great company, and the rich culinary traditions of the Middle East in one of San Francisco’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Freekeh’s cozy, welcoming vibe (and that beautiful back patio) makes it the perfect spot for our group to connect and indulge.&lt;/p&gt;
