What is behind the delicious dishes and relaxed environment that makes this little spot tucked away in the fog near Ocean Beach so special? The key is in the culture. Established by Muller and Porcello, Bartlett believes that a positive culture leads to an excellent dining experience.
Last month, our police chief’s Small Business Advisory Board held its monthly meeting in the Richmond District, bringing together representatives from our City’s business districts and commercial corridors to discuss issues facing small businesses.

Residents of the Inner Richmond are sure to have noticed the new seven-story building on Geary Boulevard at Sixth Avenue is nearing completion. Recently, scaffolding on the west side of the building was removed, revealing a massive purple mural of a Chinese dragon and spiraling onion domes, a salute to the Richmond’s diverse cultural heritage from its soon-to-be neighbor: 388 Sixth Ave.
Writing checks to pay the family bills does not seem out of the ordinary. For most of us, it is a monthly chore to which we do not give much thought. For Virginia Cheng, that routine task is a symbol of recovery from a crippling auto accident and a measure of her willingness to lend a hand to her family.
The most disruptive work is nearly complete. Work to replace sewer, water, rail lines, streetbase and repaving the entire corridor has been completed. Construction continues with installing boarding islands with accessible curb ramps, handrails and pavers and landscaping. Curve track replacement work at 46th Avenue is expected to be completed June 7, 2024. Remaining work includes testing trains along the new trackway, and installing boarding islands, landscaping, trees and artwork.
The past three years, we cleaned the entire length of Mission Street from the border of Daly City to the Embarcadero.

I read with some dismay, Mr. Kopp’s commentary calling out the “high cost” of public transit. Now, I personally hold Mr. Kopp in high esteem, yet I found his opinion piece to be not only reactionary, but regressive.
A plaque that says “What would Jimmy Carter Do?” hangs above my desk at City Hall. It provides inspiration for my work as a city supervisor – and advice for the political science graduates of San Francisco State University.
Noam Chomsky has astutely commented that America has always been a fear-based society. Nowhere is this more in evidence than in the illogical leaps of thought evident in Jen Nossokoff’s latest “commentary.”
As you can imagine, I was less than delighted to see the NTK crew once again on lower Taraval, this time between 45th and 46th, pulling up and replacing tracks (some of which had already been replaced). According to the MTA website, this is the result of a “Requested Action” for additional $4.7 MILLION to “(e)xpand scope of work to include special track work on 46th Avenue and Taraval” which includes “replace(ing) curve, cross-over, and straight rail.”
How did two ambitious young high schooler students light up San Francisco’s most prominent buildings, City Hall and Salesforce Tower, to bring awareness to the unjust treatment of women in healthcare?
The answer: It was the drive and success of Sadie O’Leary and Sophia Todd’s Women’s Health Advocacy Club.
I run a small video production company out of the Sunset neighborhood. I’m releasing a short film about Tunnel Records on Taraval tomorrow and I was wondering if y’all would be interested in posting about it.
