Not gonna get all carried away with a lot of catchy dialogue this week, just going to run down a random collection of sightings and rumors. Infusion in the old Flavor Factory Morro Bay has a sign up and I swear I saw the windows un-papered. Allegedly former employees. So this leads the question: FF…

Resty Gossip 12.15
Another BBQ spot opened in Morro Bay downtown: Savory Smoke has a curt menu of good looking stuff–I’ve only had the hamburger, which is ‘Jimmy Buffet Style’. Look it up. I had to. Never heard of it. And just like his horrible music–turns out his taste in burger condiments is not my style either. Up…
Resty Gossip 3.3
Resty Gossip has been cancelled this week because there’s nothing interesting to talk about. So here’s your TOP-5 Smashburgers to fight about. There’s about 8 of you out there who *get* it, and we all keep Smashburger Score (SS) according to the recipe. And we pray hard for the rest of you. When it comes…

THE BREAK is opening very soon in the former Central Coast Meat Market in Pismo… billing itself as a sports-themed beach bar and grill: wait, isn’t that what the thing under Oyster Loft is? On the same block, MORENO TAQUERIA is indeed NOT closed as was the rumor, just some random spottiness. That’s quite the…
Top 10 Pizzas
Hey, so I promised a Margherita Pizza round-up, so here goes. These things are all so different. Not all thin crust–some of it quite puffy and thick. Not all of it scorched–not all of it wood-fired. Only, like 4 here are wood-fired. Maybe 5. Some have copious basil–some have just a dusting. FWIW when I…
RESTY GOSSIP 10.2
LURE FISH HOUSE of Ventura fame going into the most expensive gast station in SLO, and the most re-modeled new building lacking ANY tenants what-so-ever in the history of SLO. Can you imagine waht gas would be at that Shell right now?? haha $9.00/ fershure. I’m not angry about this addition at all. Sure it’s…
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 8.7
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…
SLO BBQ Report (PG) 3.24
I have been promising a blog-post dedicated to local BBQ for some time. This has been an interesting self-assignment and I’ve probably dallied far too long, but it is a great subject, with deep roots and STRONG opinions. Also it doesn’t photograph well, so I thought I’d kick things off with some pickles! First of…
Resty Gossip 10.27
Got into SOMERSET GRILL at the new hotel in Pismo Beach last Sunday for a leisurely late lunch. The first thing you notice about the place is the kitchen, but on first impression it seems to be separated from the dining room by a long counter the wait-staff crowd around and I assumed was the…
