Expansion Wire

Oakland's Rockridge is booming, and now another expansion is on the way. This one comes from Sarah Trubnick and Carolyn Johnson, sommeliers and owners of Tendernob wine den The Barrel Room. The second Barrel Room location, which is set to open within two weeks, will carry over features like a focus on small-production wines and rotating themed flights, and will expand on the original's bar bites program with a full small plates menu.
