"Opening: Fall We are inclined to get jittery about anything that Renee Erickson does. (You know, the owner of Walrus And The Carpenter, Bateau, Barnacle, Willmott’s Ghost, Deep Dive, General Porpoise, Westward, Boat Bar, and The Whale Wins.) Lioness is her newest upcoming spot. Located in Phinney Ridge across from Ben’s Bread, it will be a small wine bar and casual Italian spot with salumi, cheeses, and we’ll make a well-informed assumption that oysters will likely be involved too." - kayla sager riley
