The food section round up is back. We gobble the various food sections up each Wednesday. But first: ready to "dine and go to heaven" in San Francisco? We are! Dine About Town is here, and prix fixe dining heaven costs $21.95 for lunch and $31.95 for dinner. Participating restaurants include: A16, B44, Cafe de la Presse, La Provence and others. This heaven won't qualify as a cheap eat, but it's presumably cheaper than what you may normally pay at these spots. Check availability; not all restaurants offer lunch and dinner special pricing.
Here are our favorite food section nibbles from today's offerings.
SF Chronicle: "Schnitzel and its cousins" fill Georgeann Brennan's plate. COOL it now: Chinese frozen spinach is scary & controversial. Hot sexy coffee gourmet blends should entice bean lovers.
The Oakland Tribune: Joey Altman and other chefs get crabby. For crab cakes, "use restraint" with ingredients that aren't fresh and juicy crab. Take the offal fork in the road.
San Jose Mercury News: Good buys are so sweet on the pocketbook. Food Network's Ellie Krieger will be at Santana Row. Oh, you can also see Krieger at Garibaldi's in SF for lunch tomorrow.

What's the DAT best value this year?
AFAICS, Rubicon is off the list for 2008. Wonder why.
Good deals would appear to include:
One Market (Michelin star!)
Forbes Island
Ruths' Chris
Hornblower
Which others are good deals?
