MISSION — Mission Venezuelan eatery Pica Pica Maize Kitchen (401 Valencia) is showing unusual solidarity with the Irish. Their cooks will use green basil to tint arepas to an emerald hue and offer $4 specials on Murphy's Irish Stout and St. Paddy's Bud Light bottles from March 15-17. [EaterWire]

SUGARWIRE — Belinda Leong of B Patisserie celebrates the international fete known as Jour de Macaron (Macaron Day) by bringing the brightly-hued treats in flavors such as salted caramel cocoa nib and roasted white chocolate with Four Barrel Coffee to Village Market (1 Ferry Building) on March 20 at 11 a.m. until supplies are gone. One free macaron will be bestowed in exchange for any purchase. [EaterWire]

PACIFIC HEIGHTS — Cotogna (490 Pacific) hosts a Sunday supper on March 18 featuring guest chef Olivier Cordier cooking a four-course meal for $50.
