Piccino Moves and Improves!

The newest addition to our rapidly reinventing neighborhood, The Yellow Building, is an original victorian structure from the early days of the historic neighborhood, circa 1841 with its stable and mews still intact. It's been transformed into a complementary grouping of shops including the a new and fabulously spacious Piccino Cafe that has moved from the Eastern corner of on Tennessee Street one block west, MAC clothing that sells an edited selection of designer clothing, gift items, and a superlative collection of spices from our friends Amaryll Schwertner and Lori Regis of Boulette's Larder in the Ferry Plaza downtown, and DIG wines by Wayne Garcia, partner of Sher Rogat, of Piccino. Don't miss it: 1005 Minnesota @ 22nd Street across the street from Rickshaw Bagworks. PS. word is there will be an artist studio workshop coming soon upstairs.

New Local Eatery --Marlowe, a bike-ride away

We checked out Marlowe the other night, a new local restaurant that opened recently, and were really delighted. Located just opposite the CalTrain station at Townsend and 4th streets, we called ahead, and though they are usually booked up, were able to get a table for three last-minute. We drove over, but with more notice could easily take a gentle, flat bike ride along the bay on Terry Francoise bouldevard, then crossed the 4th street bridge to arrive in about 10 minutes. We LOVED the Brussels Sprout Chips, and the Butchers' Mistress Cocktail, with cava, grapefruit juice and elderberry syrup. Also, the lemon curd souffle was divine. It looked like the burger was a big favorite, from the number of them I saw being sent out of the kitchen. Even with our 6-year-old, we had great service, and look forward to another meal there.

World Series starts 10/27--down the street from Dogpatch

Go Giants!! The SF Giants will play just down the street at ATT in their first world series since 2002 against the Texas Rangers. Tickets are still available on stub hub . Fans can ride the T-line tram, bike, or as my husband did for game 4 of the playoffs, walk the short mile to the stadium to watch the show.
