These Briefs Mean Business
If you noticed that the "Business Briefs" column in this week's Bay Area Reporter was unusually witty, well-written, and a good kisser, that's no coincidence! I'm happy to reveal that one of the reasons I've been slow to update the blog lately is because I'm the guest columnist writing the "Business Briefs" during August while the regular contributor is in rehab. (Just kidding! She's just on vacation!)
I cover 5 topics in the current column:
- Frisee, the new salad-centric restaurant opening in Malacca's old space
- Palencia, the Filipino restaurant replacing Tita's Hawaiian eatery
- Brandy Ho's, the drag-liciously-named Chinese restaurant which is replacing Khun Phoa on 18th
- The Under One Roof special sale happening this month in the old Tower Video space
- Femina Potens, the art gallery opening where Image Leather used to be
I'll be posting expanded notes here in the blog, including info which didn't make it past the editors or censors.
And lest you worry that I'm some Villaraigosa-esque blogger, off shtupping a media glamazon and getting ready to dump my homely blog wife, have no fear! Always remember that it was just a physical thing, and you are the one I *really* love.
Of course I'm commited to write one more column in two weeks, but a man has his needs.

Comments
They are a little fuzzy on this, as construction is still in full swing, but they are hoping to open the kitchen for take-out in September, and then open the dining room soon after. They are hoping to be completely open by the end of September, but they aren't sure.
Oh, and since it might not have been clear, the electronic version of the article is linked in the post above. The actual URL is http://www.ebar.com/columns/column.php?sec=bb . Enjoy!
Hope you get to the Castro Theatre sometime this weekend.
