I don't know why, but on my recent trip to San Francisco, I was having a really hard time remembering the name of the restaurant called Fish & Farm. Maybe it was the jet-lag, or all the chocolate and cookies that were coming at me from all angles.
But I kept calling the restaurant Farm & Fish.
Or Fish Farm. Or Farm and Fowl.
Aside from having a hard time trying to find a listing for a restaurant about fish farming, because of the offbeat name, I thought the Fish Farm was somewhere in the outer Mission, one of the fringe neighborhoods of San Francisco. Not right downtown, in the gentle theater district.
When we pulled up to the restaurant, I was surprised at how slender it was. (What was I expecting? A farm? A hydroponic tank?) But then I was glad, because it's small size gave them the luxury of spending more time on the food for each guest.
Doubly-inked chef Chad Newton sources as much of the food as possible as close to the restaurant as he can.
