Friday the tablehopper was on the town for twelve hours (I crawled home at 5am); I painted it vermilion. I started with some celebratory bubbles at ~CORKAGE~, the new sake and retail wine and tasting shop from the Dajani Group—it’s where the magazine stand used to be, in…

After almost a year of closure from a fire sparked by a faulty electric car, the ~WARMING HUT~ at Crissy Field will be reopening on December 3! Walkers and picnickers rejoice. They will continue serving food made with local and organic ingredients (“local and luscious,” as they like to call…

mini bar sf

A sweet new bar will be opening in the Western Addition, hopefully by February 2008. ~MINI BAR SF~ is exactly like its name: a tiny slip of a space (about 15 feet wide, to be exact—it was a barbershop back in the day), and the name was also inspired…
