• Michael Bauer, who we’ve newly discovered is a big goat fan, dotes on the goat soup, the goat belly pizza, the vegan charcuterie platter, and the deep-fried cardoons at Gather in Berkeley. [Chron]
• Over at the Weekly, Jonathan Kauffman files a dual review of upscale pizza joints Pi Bar and Delarosa, saying, “At both places, I thought the food was decent, the vibe comfortably crowded — and the beer lists the real reasons I’d go back.” [SF Weekly]
• Paul Reidinger loves the gorgeous plating at Bin 38, calling it a bright spot in the “swamp of mediocrity” that is the Marina district. Also, he coins a new term, hetto, while comparing the gay ghetto of the Castro to the heterosexual ghetto of the Marina. [SFBG]
