A new restaurant from acclaimed Miami chef Bradley Kilgore is coming to San Francisco’s Transamerica Pyramid, the San Francisco Chronicle reports. The yet-to-be-named restaurant won’t open in the Pyramid itself — instead, it’s located in a small adjacent building at the base, next to the restored Transamerica Redwood park. Other details are scant so far. Kilgore, originally from Kansas City, is a veteran of Michelin-starred restaurants Alinea and L2o.

The restaurant is just one part of the Transamerica Pyramid’s $400 million overhaul, which, according to the Chronicle, includes a new lobby, a restaurant on the building’s first four floors, a bar and lounge on its top floor, and a new location of the members-only Core Club, among other features. A grand opening is planned for September 12.

The estate, listed on Zillow, includes a four-bedroom farmhouse, a fruit orchard, a produce farm, an in-ground swimming pool, 20 acres of vineyards, and a circa 1870 redwood barn, among other facilities.

The Amy’s Kitchen boycott comes to an end

A grassroots two-year boycott against Amy’s Kitchen has ended after the Petaluma organic foods company agreed to improve conditions for workers, including safety, pay, and health insurance, among other measures, KQED reports. Workers and activists have had a long, winding road to this labor win, including, most recently, eight months of negotiations with Amy’s executives. “We have to defend our rights when we see injustices,” Cecilia Luna Ojeda, who worked for Amy’s Kitchen for almost 20 years, told KQED. “And there is always somebody who has to be at the forefront.”

SF bartender places in national competition

Derrick Li, owner of San Francisco cocktail bars Dragon Horse and Blind Pig Speakeasy, has been quietly racking up national bartender competition wins, as shared in an Instagram post from Dragon Horse this week. Among the accolades are placements among the U.S. Bartender Guild’s 2022 and 2024 World Class West National finalists, and Li landed in the final Top 10 this year — it might be worth a stop into one of Li’s bars to see what the buzz is about.
