Thomas Keller's Addendum Opens Soon, Ramen Wars, More!

KELLERVERSE - Addendum, Thomas Keller's forthcoming to-go operation at Ad Hoc, will kick off on June 30th. It'll offer T-Kell's beloved fried chicken or BBQ options on Thursday through Saturday during the lunch hour. This is probably about as casual as Keller's going to get. [EaterWire]

RAMEN WARS - Since everyone's judging izakayas by their ramen these days, Nombe has just added a build-your-own ramen section to its menu. You select the broth and proteins, in a manner similar to what Katana-Ya has been doing for years. And—incoming trend alert—they've also added a novel concept for SF: a traditional Japanese kaiseki menu including 7 courses for $29.95. More info here. [EaterWire]

UNION SQUARE - Hark! Summer cocktails at Clock Bar. [Alcademics]

NOW OPEN - At long last, the Fresh & Easy in the Richmond has opened. Mayor Ed Lee was on hand to talk about jobs and filling vacant buildings. In other Fresh & Easy news, the Bayview location should open on August 24. [TRB]

REVAMPS - As of this Saturday, Bernal Heights' Skip's Tavern will be known as The Lucky Horseshoe. The new owner plans to add specialty beers and live music, eventually. [Bernalwood]
