I was catching up with bartendress-about-town Victoria D’Amato-Moran (Cent’Anni Cocktails), who let me know about some of the unique offerings that will be found at REGION, the new place opening in the former Mexico DF from Kiet Truong of the pan-Asian Unicorn on Pine Street. Yeah, she got my attention with the Beijing imperial duck from a farm in Petaluma, carved tableside, and served on bone china. Unfortunately I couldn’t secure a menu in time for today’s post. The chef is Steven Lam, previously at Fortune Wok, and you will find a number of D’Amato-Moran’s tasty creations on the cocktail menu.
Take a look at more images of the remodel in Grub Street’s slide show here. Hours are Mon-Fri 11am-2:30pm for lunch, happy hour from 4pm-7pm, and dinner 5pm-10pm; Sat 11:30am-3pm and 5pm-10pm; Sun 5pm-10pm. 139 Steuart St. at Mission, 415-896-1398.
