About this blog:
Get the latest food news with the biweekly Peninsula Foodist newsletter.
I am a perpetually hungry twenty-something journalist, born and raised in Menlo Park and currently working at the Palo Alto Weekly as education and youth staff writer. I graduated from USC with a major in Spanish and a minor in journalism. Though my first love is journalism, food is a close second. I am constantly on the lookout for new restaurants to try, building an ever-expanding "to eat" list. As a journalist, I'm always trolling news sources and social media websites with an eye for local food news, from restaurant openings and closings to emerging food trends. When I was a teenager growing up in Menlo Park, I always drove up to the city on weekends with the singular purpose of finding a better meal than I could at home. But in the past year or so, the Peninsula's food culture has been totally transformed, with many new restaurants opening and a continuous stream of San Francisco restaurants coming south to open Peninsula outposts. Don't navigate this food boom hungry and alone! Feed me your tips on new chefs and eats and together we'll share them with the broader community.

UPDATE: A third Joe & The Juice opened on Friday, Oct. 5, at 240 Hamilton Ave. in Palo Alto.
Danish juice chain Joe & The Juice has opened No. 2 of three locations in Palo Alto at Stanford Shopping Center.
Joe & The Juice opened Tuesday in the former Teavana space, close to the Quarry Road side of the El Camino Real mall. It's
located next to Go Fish Poke Bar and across from Victoria's Secret.

There's one Joe & The Juice already
in business at 508 University Ave. and another nearing opening just blocks away at 240 Hamilton Ave.
The Stanford Joe & The Juice is the company's 50th U.S. location.
Shoppers in need of a caffeine boost can also now stop for free espresso tastings at coffee company Nespresso's new shop, which is now open across from the Microsoft store.
Both Joe & The Juice and Nespresso are part of a steady wave of new food-and-drink options at the mall, with more on the way, including
Shake Shack,
Taro San Japanese Noodle Bar and
Pacific Catch.
