Peter Davis' Status Update: Spork It
By Peter Davis

San Francisco is all about market fresh food. And only in SF would foodies transform an old Kentucky Fried Chicken in The Mission into a stylish restaurant serving delicious food. Spork (named after the spoon/fork combo that KFC invented in the 1960s) is the brainchild of chef/owner Bruce Binn who has cooked at SF spots like Delfina and Citizen Cake. The interior still features a massive hood that hung over the deep fryers but now serves as the light in the dining room. There is also a nod to KFC on the menu with "original recipe pull apart rolls" served with whipped honey butter and topped with sea salt. Spork's mantra is "slow food in a fast food shell." You can even buy an actual spork to bring home. Dig in!
