A Thanksgiving dinner where you don't have to clean up afterward is truly something to be thankful about. The following restaurants are offering meals for gobbling on November 26.
Let Hiro be your hero this Thanksgiving day, when in addition to his
regular menu, chef Sone offers a special five-course tasting menu at
his SoMa spot in the St. Regis.
The menu is still being finalized, but options being mulled include
tuna tartare, roasted squash soup, seared Hokkaido scallops and the
pièce de résistance , a turkey “porchetta” (4–8 PM; $85 per person;
wine pairings cost an additional $65).

To ring in November, here, now, the newly updated version of the Eater 38,
your answer and ours to any question that begins, “Can you recommend a
restaurant…” This highly elite group covers the entire city, spans
myriad cuisines and, collectively, satisfies all of your restaurant
needs, save for those occasions when you absolutely must spend half a
paycheck. Every month or so, we'll be adding pertinent restaurants that
were omitted, have newly become eligible, or have stepped up their
game. We'll also drop those that are no longer deemed 38-worthy. After
reading the comments on the original list,
poring over the emails sent to to the tipline, and tuning in to various
back channels, we're dropping sentimental favorites/wild cards Allegro Romano, Washington Square B&G and Ocean Taqueria. New to the 38, we're adding Boulevard, Range and now that it's got six months under its belt, the newly-eligible Flour + Water. Welcome to the dance floor, kids. (sourcre: eater sf)

East and South Bay Restaurants earn Michelin nods
Yelpster acclaim is all
well and good. A Zagat nod is wonderful. But when it comes down to real
bragging rights in the restaurant world, it's all about the red guide. The Bay Area boasts 10 one-star restaurants
this year, including Oakland newcomer Commis, which joins Berkeley's
Chez Panisse, Mountain View's Chez TJ, Saratoga's Plumed Horse and
Woodside's The Village Pub on the prestigious list. Los Gatos' Manresa
is one of just four Northern California restaurants to earn two stars.
And The French Laundry continues its three-star reign, one of just 71
restaurants on the planet to hold that rating. (oakland tribune)
Hitting Oakland's Uptown
You’ve heard the buzz about the nightlife renaissance in Oakland’s
Uptown district. An array of new restaurants and chic bars, an überhip
art scene, and several music venues have sprung up in the blocks
between the classic
Brunches with Punch
While brunch at the gourmet depots listed here isn’t bargain basement
as average breakfasts go, it’s an excellent value for a meal at these
high-end, sustainably-run eateries. And there’s nothing average about
these brunches. After experiencing them, you’ll never be able to
tolerate inferior French toast again. (oakland magazine)
