The Regular

B*Star Bar

It was a rainy night (as opposed to a dark and stormy night, because that would mean I am Snoopy) and a couple good friends wanted to scoop me up for a last-minute dinner somewhere new. Oh yeah, and it's Saturday, 8pm. And we don't have…

I’m so fired up! Getting ready to leave for a four-day trip to Vegas this Wednesday (yes, of course I’ll do a jetsetter recap—not everything will “stay in Vegas,” ha ha). As a warm-up, I’ve got a unique jetsetter this week, courtesy of the two former…

Town Hall and Salt House’s talented trio of Rosenthal x 2 and Washington (wow, they’d make a great law firm!) are at it again: come spring, look for an oyster bar and fish shack called ~ANCHOR AND HOPE~ opening in SOMA. The space was previously void, so it’…
