Liam's List July 9: Galactic Travel, Euro 2020 Final & Anthony Bourdain Documentary

KCBS reporter Liam Mayclem will be providing KPIX 5 users with a weekly weekend tip list of Bay Area entertainment, music, film and online entertainment.

OPENING: TONGA ROOM
Friday & Saturday 5:30 pm
"This is completely awesome."
Those words from Tony Bourdain upon his first visit to the Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar with Chef Chris Cosentino for the show "The Layover." It really IS one of the most magical night spots in San Francisco and they serve a Mai-Tai that will knock your socks off.
This legendary Tiki spot at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco is open once again and you are invited. No reservations just walk-ups Friday & Saturday from 5pm.

MOVIE: ROADRUNNER
Opens Friday July 16th
Anthony Bourdain is also the subject of a documentary about his life as a road warrior, writer, and provocateur traveling the world to share with all of us. Bourdain put the spotlight on the home cooks, the food truck chefs, the street vendors as well as the star chefs and Michelin-starred restaurants. He appeared as at ease sitting on a street curb as he did at a fancy, fine dining restaurant. He brought us not only the food & culture but his intelligent, witty take on it all. Family, pals and many chefs speak to the heart of the man who inspired us all to travel and embrace our bodies as "a pleasure park of food and fun." I had the joy of interviewing him many times & introduced him on stage for a few of his Bay Area appearances. Anthony Bourdain was a special man, who inspired me greatly, taught me to be authentic, speak my truth. He was taken too young, too soon.

Cameron's is also an Inn so if you want to make this an overnight stay - a comfy bed awaits for your slumbering pleasure.
