Meaning of Lunch: The Collected Restaurant Ramblings of San Francisco's Cheapest Eater
Description:
This collection of reviews promises to be one of the hottest guidebook titles of the year.This is Dan Leone's first collection of restaurant reviews from his popular San Francisco Bay Guardian column CHEAP EATS. Since RHP is putting it out, though, you know it will have a youthful, hip, and slightly warped take on the idea of restaurant reviews. Though it is a legitmate restaurant guidebook, The Meaning Of Lunch is specifically targeted at a self-aware, younger reader. Writing about some 150 of his favorite San Francisco food places, Leone introduces an offbeat cast of characters who share their curried chicken and 5-pound omelettes with him. Poking a stick at Gen-X posers, sports, dating, politics and, obviously, food, Leone has disguised a peek into West Coast pop culture as a guidebook.
