Thanks for the correction Eric. I admit I sloppily conflated things that weren't the same.
Taqueria Marimar
Update 9/3/11: Taqueria Marimar is probably closed. In a word: Maybe Marimar. The specs: #0652 Address, hours & details via Isthmus; reviews at Isthmus, Yelp, 100 Words or Less, Madison LiveJournal, Ruppert Food Blog (10/1/08 & 3/25/09), Yahoo Travel; photograph at Althouse; listing at Eat Dr...
It was a t-shirt that lists things you "don't learn in school" like how duck quacks don't echo and how there's no rhyme for orange, purple, silver and month and so on.
Sofra Family Bistro 91
Update: If you eat at Sofra the week of Nov. 7-12, 2010, a portion of the proceeds goes to the FEED Innovation Kitchens, a business incubator in Madison. View the full list of participating restaurants. In a word: 91 flavors and then some. The specs: #0600! Address, hours & details via Isthmus...
Kyle,
It's true that "the guy running this kitchen ain't white." That's precisely our point, and our observation about the power of that particular chef was arrived at after many conversations, a very close reading of the buzz on both Cilantro and La Mestiza (especially the provenance of their staff), and our observations of the crowds at both places.
Cilantro Bar and Grill
Update 7/5/12: Cilantro is not answering the phone during posted open hours and might be closed. In a word: Nice. Almost too nice. The specs: #0565 Address, hours & details via Isthmus; reviews at Yelp, Isthmus, AV Club, 77Square; listing at EatDrinkMadison; TDPF; official web site, Latest C...
The cupcakes are at least in the neighborhood of $3, if I recall correctly.
Bloom Bake Shop
In a word: More like Briga-Bloom. The specs: #0563 Address, hours & details via Isthmus; reviews at Yelp, VegGuide, Isthmus, MuchAdoAboutMadison; official web site, Latest Bloom Bake Shop news and reviews at del.icio.us JM brought a bunch of us a brookie, a cherry chocolate oatmeal cookie, ...
I think the confusion here is under the unpublished codicle "What is a new name?"
New Name: In order to be considered a new name, the restaurant must have a change in its first five characters. Hence, East Side Club is the same as East Side Business Men's Association. They are just isomerisms of the same name.
La Brioche shares (depending on your wicket-stickiness w/r/t foreign initial articles and carriage returns) at least seven characters with its former home and does not merit a revisit under the list.
La Brioche
Update: La Brioche has moved. About the new location at del.icio.us: In a word: Stuck. The specs: #0314 Address, hours & details via Isthmus; nice photo by karlfrankowski; reviews at Cap Times, He Said She Said; official web site; JM ate the morning bun and a chocolate croissant with chocolat...
