Shit Bartenders Say
Service interruption: While y’all slept and we threw down at a couple of Midtown saloons with two very large ladies [*wink*], my server crashed … so apologies there. That aside, it’s obvious that I’m a slave to internet trends … right? So let me hop on one of the latest trends to get all crazy …
Boccalone: San Francisco’s Meatiest Haven
In the linguistic sense, I’m pretty sure that boccalone in Italian translates to “big mouth” “a gullible person” in English. In the tangible sense, Boccalone is a ragingly popular San Francisco salumeria (meat store) from Mark Pastore and Chris Cosentino that’s located in the famed San Francisco Ferry Building. I can assure you the naming …

Braille Burgers At Wimpy [Ideas In Awesome]
For some unexplained reason, blindness and food have popped up a couple of times in my life over the past few weeks. It started when I happened upon a couple of blind foodies who romp around New York City. This AM, through a series of unexplained link clicks, I hit upon this little bit of …

These housemade muffins come courtesy of The Sentinel, a Dennis Leary [the chef … not the “Asshole”] helmed dispensary in San Francisco’s Financial District. Take note: it took …

Tartine Bakery: Morning Glory From A Croissant
When I tell you that I’ve had more than a handful of morning meditations about my breakfast at Tartine Bakery in San Francisco, take note. As shocked as you may be to read this, it needs to be written: Most mornings, when I wake up, food is the farthest thing from my mind. I’m not …

Concrete Wine: It Tastes Sooo Good [Laugh of the Day]
A fine wine might impart images of palatial estates and smells of aromatic fruits and spices. It might offer a demonstrative mid-palate and a finish of rich chocolates. Then again, it might remind you of wet concrete … That’s a great sales pitch. Meanwhile, I stop just short of looking for horse shit in my …

Mission Chinese: Flirting with Danny Bowien
It’s not unreasonable to say that San Francisco’s Mission Chinese is currently the most buzzed about Chinese restaurant in the entire country. Seriously! Head cookmeister Danny Bowien has taken a dumpy, otherwise un-notable Chinese eatery, hidden himself in its kitchen, and promptly turned the food world on its head. Right around the time I dropped …
