    Sfmoma Partners with Chef Corey Lee to Create New Restaurant in Situ

    For Immediate Release October 2, 2015 SFMOMA PARTNERS WITH CHEF COREY LEE TO CREATE NEW RESTAURANT IN SITU Will Be the Centerpiece of Expanded Dining Program at New Museum SAN FRANCISCO—The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) announces an innovative partnership with Michelin-three-starred Chef Corey Lee to create In Situ, a new restaurant on the ground floor level of the museum that will debut in spring 2016. Chef Lee will engage the global food community and reimagine the traditional restaurant experience by curating and executing a menu of dishes from recipes contributed by over 80 chefs from around the world. Participants include René Redzepi (Noma), Alice Waters (Chez Panisse), Thomas Keller (The French Laundry), Hajime Yoneda (HAJIME), Virgilio Martínez (Central), Martin Picard (Au Pied de Cochon), Olivier Roellinger (Les Maisons de Bricourt), Andoni Luis Aduriz (Mugaritz) and Dominique Ansel (Dominique Ansel Kitchen). “Similar to how we identify and support original creative voices and celebrate great masters, Corey is looking to the innovators, the emerging chefs and the legends to create the menu for In Situ,” describes Neal Benezra, director of SFMOMA. “Corey will partner with the chefs who are pushing the boundaries of the culinary world and bring global collaboration, excitement and flavors to our restaurant. What a terrific coup for SFMOMA.” In Situ will feature a rotating a la carte menu that will change to balance seasonality, style and geography. Lee will work closely with each chef to faithfully represent the dish both in technique and spirit. While some chefs have chosen to share a dish from their existing repertoire, others are creating something specifically for In Situ.

  • Dear Speaker Pelosi: We Represent San Francisco's Most Beloved

    Dear Speaker Pelosi: We Represent San Francisco's Most Beloved

    Dear Speaker Pelosi: We represent San Francisco’s most beloved restaurants who are on the verge of closing our doors permanently as a result of the COVID-19 crisis. When we asked you to act this summer you delivered, ensuring the House of Representatives passed the RESTAURANTS Act that could provide critical grants for struggling independent restaurants and bars in San Francisco and across the country. Now this pandemic is worse than ever, negotiations over federal relief continue, and we need you to continue being a champion for neighborhood restaurants. Right now over 60,000 San Franciscans working in our dining rooms risk losing their jobs. San Francisco’s reputation as one of America’s most diverse culinary destinations is at stake. Many establishments open for decades have already closed permanently including Famous Bao, Ton Kiang, E’Tutto Qua, Farallon, Hinodeya, Bistro Aix, House, and Louis’. Many more have temporarily closed, and their closures will become permanent soon unless the Senate joins the House and passes the RESTAURANTS Act. In May, nearly 90% of San Francisco’s restaurants were losing money. Over the summer, restaurant sales dropped about 91% and over half of San Francisco’s restaurants have stopped generating sales. Today with indoor and outdoor dining restrictions, 100% of restaurants are losing revenue. If you were one of less than 8% of businesses lucky enough to receive a Paycheck Protection Program loan, that funding has, or very shortly will, run out. That’s why your support for our industry has been so crucial, and we thank you for listening to the hundreds of restaurants in your district who are trying to survive this crisis.
