Serpentine Closes After 13 Years of Packed Brunches and Beloved Burgers | Eater SF

"Halvorson’s catering company, Foxtail, grew from a single six‑foot table in a commissary kitchen into a massive operation based at the AIC North building across the street from Serpentine, at one point selling about 10,000 corporate meals a week and subsidizing the restaurant’s losses; the pandemic obliterated that events and office business (dropping revenue to roughly 10 percent of its prior level), so Foxtail pivoted to offering “virtual experiences,” custom‑branded curated food and drink boxes for corporate video conferences and distanced parties, and DIY meal kits to prepare at home — products that Halvorson says have been doing better than he expected." - Eve Batey
