whether it's folks from the filipino community who immigrated to the south of market neighborhoods or japantown which is one of the best japantowns anywhere and chinatown which is one of the first and oldest anywhere in this country. we have so much incredible history with so many different communities that celebrate lunar new year and it is what makes san francisco unique. when we hosted the asian pacific economic corporation what i said during that time to so many of those visiting us from 21 economies is that san francisco is a gate way to the asian pacific. we represent diversity of cultures in so many ways and when you think about it people travel to different places all over the world to experience different cultures but when you come to san francisco you can

experience it all right here in our city whether it's different foods or different neighborhoods or different people. we all have a unique fabric that makes san francisco what it is today, and i appreciate being here celebrating on this momentous occasion, joy, excitement and happiness. after everything that we have been through the challenges of the pandemic, the challenges around anti-asian hate we're finally starting to see the representation of what the dragon means around progress with the 90% reduction in anti-asian hate crimes in san francisco and it is everything to do with all the work that we have been doing together. [applause] >> so again i want to welcome you to san francisco city hall for this great celebration and really appreciate you all for coming together because after such a hard time,

after so many challenges it is time to start rooting for san francisco. it is time to start rooting for what makes us so unique and special. it is time to start celebrating and experiencing joy and happiness and excitement. yes, san francisco has its challenges because we're a major city, but we need to start focusing on what makes us great, what makes us special, what makes us unique? and lunar new year with our diverse asian community is really an important part of what makes us special and what makes us unique. that's the celebration that we're hosting here tonight and we appreciate each and every one of you for joining us on this auspicious occasion and we hope to see you saturday at the lunar new year parade as well. thank you all so much.

repeat after me. [speaking foreign language] okay now you can all speak chinese as well as as joaquin. you know every year the chamber helps to organize the lunar new year parade and madam mayor you mentioned earlier there's so many things that make san francisco unique and special and the lunar new year parade is one of those things. it's the only night time lunar new year in the country, the largest one in the country and for those that have been in person you know it's a spectacle. you can't feel the magic. you can't feel the power of it unless you're standing on the ground with the performers and it's going to be a beautiful, beautiful year. i want just to make sure to highlight some of the special things we're doing in this year of the

dragon. we are introducing we're debuting a new green wood dragon so look out for that. that's going to be incredible. we have an amazing grand marshal this year, the hollywood actress aqua finna. but we want to show her that we do lunar new year way better than l.a. so all the hollywood people need to come up here to get the real thing and also i really want to say that we have an incredible number of performers and units this year, 122 to be expect. the number keeps going up and up and up and i mention this because the time and energy and dedication it takes to get ready for the parade is something that folks do all year around so it's an incredible special moment and please pay attention to all of the units because they spend

so much time on tnow the chamber organizes this thing but we don't put it o it's a community and city effort and first of all i want to thank the hundreds and hundreds of volunteers that come out to support the parade and you know it's a production. it's incredible. it takes a lot of person power and the volunteers make it happen. secondly i want to thank our city's leaders ma'am mayor, london breed for the support year in and year out. the city contributes funding to make it happen. that's really critical but the work of the department heads keeping us safe and clean and everything orderly. that's so important so thank you especially to the sheriffs, the firefighters, san francisco police department and i know they're in commission right now. thank you to dpw for cleaning up afterwards. it's a big task and thank you for the transportation. for

those going to the parade there's go through the new chinatown rose pac station and via that instead of driving and i want to invite everyone to the parade and it's going to be amazing and madam mayor we hope that you can call the weather service to make it a beautiful evening and we know you will help with that. thank you. >> thank you and now i would like to invite back up claudine cheng and the apa heritage foundation representatives for a special presentation to the mayor, mayor breed please join us on stage. yes, you mayor. we only have one mayor here. .

>> all right. so this is the year of the green wood dragon. i think we all know by now so we're very pleased -- we have many versions of the dragon and around town but we saw a very, very special and unique one. i would like to introduce our san francisco's own artist. her piece was really stunning and i think this year the community has chosen for commissioner to present this plaque to you mayor. it would look great in the mayor's office. [applause] >> and maybe the

commissioner would like to explain a little bit about this. maybe the artist would like to say a few words about this special piece. >> thank you so much. thank you so much for having me. i'm so excited here to present the year of the dragon art. this is a special piece because this is not generated by ai. i actually generate this -- i create this at work by hand on apple computer using adobe software. it symbolizes the innovation spirit of san francisco bay area where technology meets humanity and liberal art and the east meets west and the tradition meets contemporary. i'm incredibly honor toed here and i echo every previous speaker and performers and i wish you all a

happy lunar new year of the dragon. thank you so much. cheers. >> thank you. another round of applause. [applause] >> it certainly takes a village to create the celebrations across the city whether in the san francisco chinatown, in visitacion valley, sunset, excelsior, or ocean avenue and we see celebrations and thank all the committee members for the help, claudine cheng in particular for all of the work, some of the folks at city hall and rob and others who did an amazing job to support this event. we're going to have our final performance today and this is a real treat. this is a dance from you know no nishia and will be performed by monali varaiya and this is

>> this is one place you can always count on to give you what you had before and remind you of what your san francisco history used to be. >> we hear that all the time, people bring their kids here and their grandparents brought them here and down the line. >> even though people move away, whenever they come back to the city, they make it here. and they tell us that. >> you're going to get something made fresh, made by hand and made with quality products and something that's very, very good. ♪♪ >> the legacy bars and restaurants was something that was begun by san francisco simply to recognize and draw attention to the establishments. it really provides for san francisco's unique character.

♪♪ >> and that morphed into a request that we work with the city to develop a legacy business registration. >> i'm michael cirocco and the owner of an area bakery. ♪♪ the bakery started in 191. my grandfather came over from italy and opened it up then. it is a small operation. it's not big. so everything is kind of quality that way. so i see every piece and cut every piece that comes in and out of that oven. >> i'm leslie cirocco-mitchell, a fourth generation baker here with my family. ♪♪ so we get up pretty early in

the morning. i usually start baking around 5:00. and then you just start doing rounds of dough. loaves. >> my mom and sister basically handle the front and then i have my nephew james helps and then my two daughters and my wife come in and we actually do the baking. after that, my mom and my sister stay and sell the product, retail it. ♪♪ you know, i don't really think about it. but then when i -- sometimes when i go places and i look and see places put up, oh this is our 50th anniversary and everything and we've been over 100 and that is when it kind of hits me. you know, that geez, we've been here a long time. [applause] ♪♪ >> a lot of people might ask why our legacy business is important. we all have our own stories to

tell about our ancestry. our lineage and i'll use one example of tommy's joint. tommy's joint is a place that my husband went to as a child and he's a fourth generation san franciscan. it's a place we can still go to today with our children or grandchildren and share the stories of what was san francisco like back in the 1950s. >> i'm the general manager at tommy's joint. people mostly recognize tommy's joint for its murals on the outside of the building. very bright blue. you drive down and see what it is. they know the building. tommy's is a san francisco hoffa, which is a german-style presenting food. we have five different carved meats and we carve it by hand

at the station. you prefer it to be carved whether you like your brisket fatty or want it lean. you want your pastrami to be very lean. you can say i want that piece of corn beef and want it cut, you know, very thick and i want it with some sauerkraut. tell the guys how you want to prepare it and they will do it right in front of you. san francisco's a place that's changing restaurants, except for tommy's joint. tommy's joint has been the same since it opened and that is important. san francisco in general that we don't lose a grip of what san francisco's came from. tommy's is a place that you'll always recognize whenever you lock in the door. you'll see the same staff, the same bartender and have the same meal and that is great. that's important.

♪♪ >> the service that san francisco heritage offers to the legacy businesses is to help them with that application process, to make sure that they really recognize about them what it is that makes them so special here in san francisco. ♪♪ so we'll help them with that application process if, in fact, the board of supervisors does recognize them as a legacy business, then that does entitle them to certain financial benefits from the city of san francisco. but i say really, more importantly, it really brings them public recognition that this is a business in san francisco that has history and that is unique to san francisco.

>> it started in june of 1953. ♪♪ and we make everything from scratch. everything. we started a you -- we started a off with 12 flavors and mango fruits from the philippines and then started trying them one by one and the family had a whole new clientele. the business really boomed after that. >> i think that the flavors we make reflect the diversity of san francisco. we were really surprised about the legacy project but we were thrilled to be a part of it. businesses come and go in the city.

pretty tough for businesss to stay here because it is so expensive and there's so much competition. so for us who have been here all these years and still be popular and to be recognized by the city has been really a huge honor. >> we got a phone call from a woman who was 91 and she wanted to know if the mitchells still owned it and she was so happy that we were still involved, still the owners. she was our customer in 1953. and she still comes in. but she was just making sure that we were still around and it just makes us feel, you know, very proud that we're carrying on our father's legacy. and that we mean so much to so many people. ♪♪ >> it provides a perspective.

and i think if you only looked at it in the here and now, you're missing the context. for me, legacy businesses, legacy bars and restaurants are really about setting the context for how we come to be where we are today. >> i just think it's part of san francisco. people like to see familiar stuff. at least i know i do. >> in the 1950s, you could see a picture of tommy's joint and looks exactly the same. we haven't change add thing. >> i remember one lady saying, you know, i've been eating this ice cream since before i was born. and i thought, wow! we have, too. ♪♪ listen, your story line, it makes for incredible tv drama. thing is, your drug use is too adult for the kids, so i'm going to have to block you. oh, man. yeah. [inhales] well, have a good one. you're a nice lady.

>> come shop dine and play. taraval street is open for business. >> [indiscernible] the owner of

tabita's on taraval on-my business is focus on [indiscernible] my mom's res aef and we make muffins and scones and cookies and everything home made. for me, it is being able to be a community cafe where everybody feels comfortable. please come in, play and eat at the tabita's cafe on 1101 teraival street. >> take time for teraival bingo, a community game supporting small business. anyone can participate. it is easy, collect special stickers on a bingy stale game board and enter a raff raffle event for a chance >> working with kids, they keep you young. they keep you on your tones --

on your toes. >> teaching them, at the same time, us learning from them, everything is fulfilling. >> ready? go. [♪♪♪] >> we really wanted to find a way to support women entrepreneurs in particular in san francisco. it was very important for the mayor, as well as the safety support the dreams that people want to realize, and provide them with an opportunity to receive funding to support improvements for their business so they could grow and thrive in their neighborhoods and in their industry. >> three, two, one! >> because i am one of the consultants for two nonprofits here for entrepreneurship, i knew about the grand through the

renaissance entrepreneur center, and through the small business development center. i thought they were going to be perfect candidate because of their strong values in the community. they really give back to the neighborhood. they are from this neighborhood, and they care about the kids in the community here. >> when molly -- molly first told us about the grant because she works with small businesses. she has been a tremendous help for us here. she brought us to the attention of the grand just because a lot of things here were outdated, and need to be up-to-date and redone totally. >> hands in front. recite the creed. >> my oldest is jt, he is seven, and my youngest is ryan, he is almost six. it instills discipline and the boys, but they show a lot of care. we think it is great. the moves are fantastic. the women both are great teachers.

>> what is the next one? >> my son goes to fd k. he has been attending for about two years now. they also have a summer program, and last summer was our first year participating in it. they took the kids everywhere around san francisco. this year, owner talking about placing them in summer camps, all he wanted to do was spend the entire summer with them. >> he has strong women in his life, so he really appreciates it. i think that carries through and i appreciate the fact that there are more strong women in the world like that. >> i met d'andrea 25 years ago, and we met through our interest in karate. our professor started on cortland years ago, so we grew up here at this location, we out -- he outgrew the space and he

moved ten years later. he decided to reopen this location after he moved. initially, i came back to say, hey, because it might have been 15 years since i even put on a uniform. my business partner was here basically by herself, and the person she was supposed to run the studio with said great, you are here, i started new -- nursing school so you can take over. and she said wait, that is not what i am here for i was by myself before -- for a month before she came through. she was technically here as a secretary, but we insisted, just put on the uniform, and help her teach. i was struggling a little bit. and she has been here. one thing led to another and now we are co-owners. you think a lot more about safety after having children and i wanted to not live in fear so much, and so i just took advantage of the opportunity, and i found it very powerful to hit something, to get some

relief, but also having the knowledge one you might be in a situation of how to take care of yourself. >> the self-defence class is a new thing that we are doing. we started with a group of women last year as a trial run to see how it felt. there's a difference between self-defence and doing a karate class. we didn't want them to do an actual karate class. we wanted to learn the fundamentals of how to defend yourself versus, you know, going through all the forms and techniques that we teaching a karate class and how to break that down. then i was approached by my old high school. one -- once a semester, the kids get to pick an extra curricular activity to take outside of the school walls. my old biology teacher is now the principle. she approached us into doing a self-defence class. the girls have been really proactive and really sweet. they step out of of the comfort zone, but they have been willing

to step out and that hasn't been any pushback. it is really great. >> it is respect. you have to learn it. when we first came in, they knew us as those girls. they didn't know who we were. finally, we came enough for them to realize, okay, they are in the business now. it took a while for us to gain that respect from our peers, our male peers. >> since receiving the grant, it has ignited us even more, and put a fire underneath our butts even more. >> we were doing our summer camp and we are in a movie theatre, and we just finished watching a film and she stepped out to receive a phone call. she came in and she screamed, hey, we got the grant. and i said what? >> martial arts is a passion for us. it is passion driven. there are days where we are dead tired and the kids come and they have the biggest smiles on their faces and it is contagious.

>> we have been operating this program for a little over a year all women entrepreneurs. it is an extraordinary benefit for us. we have had the mayor's office investing in our program so we can continue doing this work. it has been so impactful across a diversity of communities throughout the city. >> we hope that we are making some type of impact in these kids' lives outside of just learning karate. having self-confidence, having discipline, learning to know when it's okay to stand up for yourself versus you just being a bully in school. these are the values we want the kids to take away from this. not just, i learned how to kick and i learned how to punch. we want the kids to have more values when they walk outside of these doors.
