First pie fired! The night went very well. The wood-burning oven has been christened! I love this job already!

RSS SubscribeWelcome to Family Meal, a blog that examines all things new and noteworthy in the world of food, wine, and dining.
At family meal, otherwise known as staff meal, there’s no hierarchy; you’re breaking bread with your friends. For those 30 minutes, everyone is equal- and hungry. Family meal is our version of the water cooler- but with better food.
I’ll be sharing my thoughts, tips, and observations, and, in the spirit of family meal, I’ve invited our creative, energetic staff- everyone from line cook to bartender to bookkeeper- to have a say. I hope you’ll add your own comments and join in the conversation.

“… open to the public soon.” Does soon mean January, preferably this week or next?
Will the menu duplicate the one at SP #1?

SP#2 will open in January. The opening date should be fairly soon, but unforseen things happen so I don’t want to post a date until it’s a sure thing. The menu will be similar to SP#1.

I live a block away and I’ve been anticipating this opening for months now. You’ll be seeing a lot of my husband and I.
