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.

Song Pa Korean Cuisine closes in Mountain View
Uploaded: Nov 30, 2017
Downtown Mountain View Korean restaurant Song Pa has closed.
The owners, a family that previously owned a Pleasanton restaurant of the same name, could not be reached for comment.
An online Coldwell Banker real estate listing for the 841 Villa St. property shows it was sold on Oct. 31 after several price reductions over the last six months.
Song Pa
opened last February, replacing longtime Korean eatery Totoro. The small restaurant served traditional Korean food like bibimbap, japchae and other fare.
