There are new eats in town, and they’re being dished out at Brenda’s over in the Tenderloin. What? You haven’t been to Brenda’s? I figured this might be the case, as the stoves have only been fired for about a month or so. I’ve eaten there twice and, from what my [...]

I’m here today to give okra some good press—to praise its tender-crisp outer flesh, appreciate its playful white pearls that pop between my teeth, and hail the quirky viscosity of its insides that make some people squish their faces into a disdainful “Eeewwwww.”
