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.

For those of us who won't be setting diet-related New Year's resolutions, a new all-you-can-eat Asian fusion restaurant will be opening in downtown Mountain View in January.

Superhot Hot Pot & Korean BBQ will serve hot pot, dim sum and Korean barbecue under one roof at 210 Hope St. The space was most recently occupied by Verde Tea Kitchen, which closed in February 2017.
Superheat manager Jay Wang said the entire menu will be an all-you-can-eat model: $29.99 per person for dinner and $18.99 per person for lunch.
The owners are a group of partners who own Chinese and Korean restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles, Wang said. He declined to name them.
This post will be updated with an opening date once it's announced.
