San Francisco’s Shuggie’s Ditches the Trash Pie and That Bright Yellow Room | Eater SF

"Owners Kayla Abe and David Murphy will temporarily close the restaurant on Saturday, August 16 for a light makeover that includes reworking Abe’s murals, painting the front room orange — a change from its current yellow — and adding a large fountain. Launched in 2022 with a mission of sustainability using pizza as a vehicle to use up irregular or surplus produce, the menu is being overhauled after three years; the Chronicle writes that the pizza "started to feel limiting" to Abe and Murphy, and with the temporary closure they’re pulling most of the pies off the menu (the exception is a "pizza-like" cacio e pepe "pillow"). The sustainability mission will remain, but the kitchen will shift toward dishes such as a "schnitzel-esque bone-in boar chop" and "steak frites three ways," that will utilize beef heart or sweetbreads. The spot is expected to reopen in late August." - Dianne de Guzman
