Community runs thicker than at .sf, where large-format sharing plates steal the show. The Wagyu beef coulotte, the hamachi collar, the whole Fogline farm chicken, the Berkshire pork chop — when a big plate drops, expect all hands on deck.

How dare we forget that Chef is an accomplished pastry chef (heh, it’s his handle, after all). But we got a reminder today when we came across this photo of the monteblanc, a special New Year’s Eve dessert he created. Made of yuzu mousse, hazelnut financier, and chestnut creme, the monteblanc’s choux was filled with amazake pastry cream. Yummm. Photo by .
