One Night, One Heart

A lot of fundraiser events cross my desk, but I have to hand it to ~ONE NIGHT, ONE HEART~ for creativity: the Zen Hospice Project is hosting a variety of dinners around the Bay Area, 14 in all. Some are in private homes, or restaurants (like Jack Falstaff, or Frascati)…

Mums Home of Shabu-Shabu

Are you ready to go to battle, soldier? What? I can't hear you! Because where I am about to take you is loud, sweaty, and chaotic--there will be pots of boiling water, sake bombs going off left and right, drunk and unpredictable civilians, and hot shrapnel of…

Metro Kathmandu

I was a little skeptical when METRO KATHMANDU was opening in the 94117, a second Nepali restaurant not five blocks away from another one in the neighborhood, Kathmandu Cafe. As a friend and I recently lamented, would it be so hard to have some Italian here? Or some French bistro…

I have been waiting on this one for months, and now I can talk about it! In the historic 1250 Jones building, ~LE CLUB~ returns to its roost—it was most recently C&L Steakhouse, and before that, Charles Nob Hill. Gina Milano (Bambuddha) and movie producer Todd Traina…
