Urban Legend

Urban Tavern Opens

As Ren Faire descendeth ’pon Golden Gate Park,
The C&L empire doth maketh its mark.

Aqua, then Fifth Floor,
Cafe de la Presse,
Rouge et Blanc Wine Bar,
A tavern is next.

Condy plus Manrique,
And Scala at that,
O’Farrell and Mason,
Hath got a new act.

Resheath thine bodkin,
The waiters will do it,
With tableside carving,
There’s quite nothing to it.

Prosciutto of duck breast,
And chicken bouillabaisse,
Omelettes served all day,
Hot beef! (Yes, it’s braised.)

Most wine is organic,
Sustainably farmed,
It’s oath Hippocratic,
Such drink does no harm.

Ye strumpets and vassals best roll up and pillage,
Before this new hotspot attracts the whole village.

Urban Tavern, 333 O’Farrell Street, at Mason Street (415-923-4400 or urbantavernsf.com).
