My friend, who lives in San Francisco, forwarded me this link about the new ‘Wichcraft which just opened there. For those of you who don’t know, ‘Wichcraft is a popular sandwich kiosk in Bryant Park, NYC, serving bourgie sandwiches to hungry lunchtime crowds. Chef Tom Colicchio (of Bravo’s Top Chef fame), has just opened a SF outpost of this successful food stand.

SF Chronicle food critic Michael Bauer wrote about this restaurant,

“I’ve never heard as much praise for a restaurant as I did before ‘Wichcraft opened in the Westfield San Francisco Centre; and I’ve never heard so many disparaging comments after people tried it.”

Hhhmm, a little East versus West Coast rivalry? Your thoughts?
