Kronnerburger bounces back after an accident closed it for days
Oakland’s Kronnerburger has had a tough start to the holiday season after one of its walls collapsed, breaking all of its plateware and liquor in the process, and forcing the restaurant to close for almost a week. It’s now back open, though, making this a very good time to eat its deliriously meaty, marrow-topped burger. Plus, there’s now a Dungeness crab burger on the menu, featuring Kronner’s signature “crabby patty” grilled or fried, with hot pepper tartar sauce, pickled carrots and watermelon radish, on a potato pain de mie bun.
AL’s Place closes its patio for the season
It will be harder once again to get a seat at AL’s Place, which has officially closed its 18-seat patio for the season. To counter that, the vegetable-forward Mission restaurant is making room for more walk-ins in the dining room.
The Bay Area doughnut calendar is back!
The annual Bay Area doughnut calendar has returned, and this year’s version is better than ever, with entries inspired by Bob's Donuts, Dynamo, Mr. Holmes Bakehouse, and more. Serendipitously, the illustrations just so happen to mirror Eater’s picks for the very best fried pastries in the city.
