Opening a restaurant is difficult. Keeping one a success for seventeen years and counting is astonishing, and Firefly is an incredible example. Their passion for food, people, and community ought to be commended, and they are an important part of San Francisco's food community. Firefly serves as a beacon of hope for civility in the work place, and reminds us that if you follow your heart unflinchingly and are true to yourself and those who help you succeed, the universe will reward you.
