Well, Restaurant Month is over, so boomer and cheapskates everywhere can go back to not eating out or splitting plates and staff can go back to less explaining, real tickets with margins, and tips. So why do they do it? It’s a media thing. Look at it. Look who promotes it. It’s all tourism associations…

Resty Gossip 3.24
Let’s start here. Todo Bueno probably one of my favorite spots in SLO Public Market and their tacos are *weird* but GIVE THEM A SHOT! Just let them make them they way they want no matter how strange it sounds and they are super good. StaXXX in Morro Bay make tacos kinda on the secret…

Flavor Factory closed. SLO Wine & Beer closed. Giuseppe’s Cucina Rustica closed for remodel. The Tavern is open in Atascadero. A pool hall. That will be interesting. Lord knows that end of town needs something staying open past 6. Up the street in downtown, the City has opened two lots for prospectus, RFQ & P…
200 miles of Tacos
I haven’t counted lately, but there are probably well over 150 taquerias listed on my TACO PAGE and that is a LOT of information for all but the die-hard taco-freaks. I get emails, texts, DM’s almost daily, “HELP I’M IN _________ WHERE’S THE BEST TACOS??” Everyone wants a short-list. I’ve never made a TOP-10 or…

New sandwich shop in Morro Bay: Gilligans or something, also a new Chinese spot–which I may have to seek out because the one Chinese resty we DO have is one of the worst I’ve ever had and even better: Morro Bay’s reigning self-appointed foodie dip-tard HATES the new one. So I MUST visit. Across the…

Have you been to the new HIGH ST. DELI in Los Osos yet? Baywood, actually. Menu’s a bit different–not quite as large as the midtown location–but has most of the favorites. PLUS–and this is key–a WINE SHOP on site! Yes, there’s a place to buy wine in Los Osos now besides the Shell station and…

There’s a new eatery in the troubled spot on Chorro in Chinatown where the Iberian wine-shop was: about 5 tenants ago. THE HEALTHY CRAVE seems to promise more than just smoothies and I’m not sure what their shtick is, nor do I honestly care. Quite confident I will visit them exactly the same number of…
Taco updates 2.29
Did a little housekeeping on THE TACO LIST. Remember, it is always on the front page of eatdrink101.com right there at the top. You don’t know how often people say, “Where is the taco list?” or ask me to sent them a link and it is right there at the top, in front, all the…
Resty Gossip 2.15
There’s a new fresh produce market up in Morro Bay. THE AVOCADO SHACK. Kind of an interesting theme. You don’t often see brick & mortar shops dedicated to fruit and vegetables. It’s a small shop, but stacked high inside and out with layers and layers of fresh offerings. Gooseberries, basil, fresh farm eggs, mangos and…
A Few of my Favorites 9.29
Going through my notes of the past week or so, there is nothing new to write about in terms of *gossip*. You can literally go to LAST WEEK’S GOSSIP COLUMN and everything is still true. Hotels are plugging along, PIADINA in Hotel SLO open in 2 weeks, CARISSA fully open, Maegen Loring is the official…
