Here’s a fun international holiday: did you know that the first Saturday of February is Pisco Sour Day? Well, it is, so you’d better raise your glass. CANTINA will be celebrating with Campo de Encanto pisco sours for $4.99 (there’s a Niners reference there—did you catch it?) from 4pm-9pm on Saturday February 2nd. From 7pm-9pm you can catch some live Peruvian music with some flamenco flair from Guitar Box Story. 580 Sutter St. at Mason, 415-398-0195.
