Riffing off yesterday’s post about the new restaurant critics and catching up in general, Soleil Ho’s take down of Le Colonial is a such a picture of generation shift. There’s no respect for one of Willie Brown’s favorite restaurants because it’s an amusement park confection of colonialism. Brown’s SF used to be something to aspire to but that vision has been losing ground for a while. His ex lover and understudy burnt all bridges with him, now this, the new wave continues to surge forward and bury one of his favored institutions. Times change but this is a huge attitudinal shift.
