What do you want to talk about this week? I’ve been threatening a Best Tacos in San Luis Obispo post for a while, but mostly covered it last issue. I’ve been itching to do a resty-twirl through Atascadero and also hinting at a SLOco Top 10 but I hate top-whatever lists and besides, everybody always…

Resty Gossip 1.19
The Doc Bernstein’s in SLO has become SLO A LA MODE… still ice cream and there WERE rumors of some sort of insider-trading from the old ownership to the new operators but I stopped eating ice cream when I was 9 so don’t really care. Go to BATCH like a grown-up. Did I ever write…

Resty Gossip 12.21
The Gus’ saga continues with a not-so-hot Health Dept grade and financial issues backing it up, though declining sales surely can’t be to blame. Always seems to be plenty of people willing to be deli-abused chowing down. The thing that always gets me about Gus’s Grocery is: Go to ANY other sandwich shop in town…
Top-10 Clam Chowders
I’ve avoided the whole “Clam Chowder” thing the entire 20 years I have lived on the Central Coast. My first exposure to this odd stew was the ridiculous line wrapping around Splash Cafe in Pismo Beach. One look at the demographic queued up told me I NEVER needed to experience this soup. And I love…
Resty Gossip 9/11
A-TOWN DINER is back. And if I cared I’d look up the name of it for you. HEMMINGWAY’S chef walked out, so all my friends lookin for kitchen-staff there’s one out there. Did you know the AIRPORT has brisket on Saturday? THE CARRISA postponed brunch til next Sunday citing “un-readiness”. MORE RESTAURANTS SHOULD DO THIS….
Resty Gossip 8.27
Should probably lead off with PUFFER’S OF PISMO, since that’s what everyone’s gnashing their teeth about. Listen: they’re re-structuring things a bit, eh? How many times has he remodelled that place? Let him take a week off and align his focus. I always wondered how long Andy was going to stay there. No one’s ever…
Resty Gossip 8.7
This space intentionally left blank. What are you going to go to first, Hemingway’s or Cielo? Both open. Raves for the former from the sort of people who eat at places like that and rave about them–not a peep about the latter, yet. Across the street from the Italian joint, The Carlton Hotel and associated…
