Bluestem Brasserie

Just recently, I had a chance to tour the site for what is going to be BLUESTEM BRASSERIE, a chic addition to Yerba Buena Lane that is opening later this year (say, mid-year-ish). The project is from Adam Jed (previously with PlumpJack) and his wife, Stacy, who are…

February 8, 2011 - This week's tablehopper: forking around.

This week's tablehopper: forking around.                     Barbacoa (lamb) taco from El Huarache Loco. Three things that are making me happy this past (and upcoming) week: * not seeing rainy clouds in the forecast for another week. * taking Sunday completely off, spending it at the Alemany flea market (which included the…

Three things that are making me happy this past (and upcoming) week: * not seeing rainy clouds in the forecast for another week. * taking Sunday completely off, spending it at the Alemany flea market (which included the bonus of being able to eat kickass tacos—with made-to-order tortillas—from…

February 4, 2011 - This week's tablehopper: spring training.

This week's tablehopper: spring training.                     Tomato-braised beef, kale, crescenza, farm egg pizza at Pizzetta 211. Pure. Evil.
