"Planned to reopen in September in the Cow Hollow space, Wildseed will be a fully plant-based restaurant with no animal products at all. Consulting chef Blair Warsham will lead the kitchen and, according to the team, brings “an omnivore’s palate to the table,” ensuring each dish is flavorful and satisfying. Assistant general manager Lauren Fitzgerald, who is vegan, will run a bar program focused on organic and vegan wines, and the drink list will also feature cocktails made with fresh juices, herbs and homemade shrubs and tinctures. Back of the House CEO Adriano Paganini says he conceived Wildseed after research trips to LA and work with a dietician as part of his own health journey, and he hopes it will be a place people can eat at several times a week. Design is by Hannah Collins/ROY, and the restaurant will offer full-service lunch and dinner Tuesday through Saturday with weekend brunch to be added later; more info at www.wildseedsf.com." - Caleb Pershan
