Owner Matt Kreutz will shutter the company's first retail location to focus on the year-old Alameda cafe and bakery.

Okay, here’s the list of bummer closures that nobody asked for: - Sister - Bartavelle - Timeless (Jack London location) - Firebrand (Downtown) And if you want me to move, here is what you have to close: - Xochi the dog

Another pov, how could Miss Ollie’s have closed down? Healthy, delicious greatest value for money. I think Sarah Kirnon had a few other things planned, but how some of these places wind up closed is beyond me.

I moved away years ago, but even from a distance, was extremely bummed about Bartavelle. Perfect restaurant imo. I keep searching net to see if Suzanne Drexhage has written cookbook. Haven’t Found anything close to it since. Hope she and her son landed on their feet. Still in mourning 💔🖤
