San Francisco to David Chang: Go Momofuku Yourself

SF sides with figs, not the NYC chef.

They make a kick ass sloppy joe. Good to go on a warm day – lots of outdoor seating, and on a quite street.

The only place I can think of that’s similar to what you’re dreaming about is Fat Edna’s on Ridge Avenue, just uphill from where Main Street starts in Manayunk. I haven’t eaten there in a while (actually...

Time for the annual question: For Grubs & all the rest of us traveling in the glorious Canadian Rockies this season, what are your houndly recs between Banff & Jasper? Have digested (sorry...) earlier board posts; am seeking...

I joined a friend at Grub for lunch a couple of weeks ago- it’s one of his favorite spots in LA. It’s a lovely garden spot. Walking in through the gate, I felt like I was being led into someone’s private...

what you’ll find anywhere else. There used to be wings place over by Plaza de España, but I think it may be no more (it was on the side street where Alphaville is—name escaping me at the moment). You can also get good...

I heard that the Blue Bell Inn has a very nice bar and also caters to an older crowd, I have never been there though. I also enjoy the bar at the Blue Horse Tavern across the street. It can get a bit crowded/loud on weekends but...

Try the Nodding Head Brewpub, above the Sansom Street Oyster House on the 1500 block of Sansom Street. Good food, great beer, and a very convivial atmosphere.
