SFoodie mentions (and paid a visit to) the new T-DUB’S ON FRIDAYS in SoMa, in the former Yellow Pa Taut location. “Baby back ribs are his specialty, but the menu includes other cuts of pork, beef, and chicken wings, too. None of the meats are smoked—they’re braised until tender, then finished on the grill, brushed with the sauce as they cook. The menu also includes most of the standard Southern sides—mac and cheese, candied yams, corn on the cob, creamy cole slaw—each named after a member of his family.” Open Mon-Fri 11am-9pm. 15 Boardman Pl. at Bryant, 415-624-3360.
And The Tenderblog mentions HYDEAWAY BLUES BBQ, a Memphis-style barbecue place “with a California twist” coming to the TL, possibly in December. Sounds like some gumbo, jambalaya, and biscuits are also going to be on the menu. You can follow updates on the family’s Twitter feed. 457 Hyde St. at O’Farrell.
