Steamed barbecue pork buns at Yank Sing were $3.50 in 2005. Now they'll set you back $5.50. A Saturday night dinner at Chez Panisse was $75 back then — this coming weekend it'll stand at $125.

A lot has changed about dining in San Francisco since 11 years ago, where the Chronicle begins their price comparison of signature dishes at top Bay Area restaurants, and it's not just prices.

The whole game is different, as Kim Alter of Nightbird observed in conversation with Eater at a Golden Gate Restaurant Association panel discussion last night. "When opening a restaurant, we have conversations like, ‘Should we have Instagrammable light in here?’ and it’s mind-blowing because it’s about the food, but it’s changed in the last five to ten years in what you need to think about when opening a restaurant and how people eat now."

Tracking 22 dishes and prix-fixe menus from 14 top Bay Area restaurants since 2005, the Chronicle found that menu prices rose at about double the rate of the US Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Bay Area consumer price index. While the consumer price index swelled 27.6 percent since 2005 and 13.6 percent from 2010 to 2015 and, the dishes the Chronicle watched went up in price by 52 percent since 2005, 26 percent since 2010, and even 7.5 percent just in the last year. But why?

"I've always said that if a line cook at a restaurant could make a fair living wage in San Francisco, no one would be able to afford to eat at a restaurant in San Francisco." Thomas McNaughton, the chef and owner of Flour+Water, Central Kitchen, and Salumeria, chimed in. With restaurateurs David Steele and David White, his Ne Timeas Restaurant Group also operates Trick Dog, Aatxe, and Cafe Du Nord. "The $26 entree turns into [the] $56 entree," McNaughton continued, "There are so many people in SF and NYC right now putting their necks on the line of essentially an experience of, ‘How do we make the economics of a restaurant work?’ It’s something I’d love to know the answer for myself."

Not to get all "Wage Labour and Capital," but San Francisco's rising cost of living has called for commensurate compensation for restaurant industry workers. To keep a place at the table, restaurateurs like Alter and McNaughton have difficult calculations to make.

Let's look at a hypothetical menu. Prices account for food costs, and across the board, those have gone up. Previously subsidized ingredients like beef, a story in itself, now bear costs more in line with their actual value.

Rent goes into the cost of a dish, too, and though some top restaurants own the buildings in which they operate, very many do not.

There's the profit margin you want — roughly 10 percent, maybe.

And then there's labor. That's the big one that's risen in several ways, with the Chronicle writing that "high prices are, in part, a measure of our political success," meaning with regard to labor laws.

Beyond wages, consider workers comp. San Francisco’s Health Care Security Ordinance, est. 2008, says that businesses of 20 employees working eight or more hours per week require some health care compensation. For larger businesses that's $2.53 per employee per hour worked, and for smaller ones, it's $1.68.

"When you go out to eat, you’re not thinking about how much the chair you sat on cost," Kim Alter also said. "You’re not thinking rent is $12,000 a month. There’s a strong conversation about how much apartments cost per month, but not about how much restaurants cost per month. When they take that bite of food, a diner is not thinking about how much it costs to process that and pay your cook $25 an hour. You’re just thinking, ‘I can pay $2.50 for chicken at Safeway.’ It’s an education of people understanding what things actually cost."

Coincidentally, Zuni's Pilgram also has a point to make about Safeway chicken. "People sometimes ask, ‘If I can buy a [whole] chicken at Safeway for $6, why am I paying $50?’ Well, my chicken is better than Safeway’s. Then there’s the wood for the oven, there’s the person manning the oven — who is going to be making at the least $17 an hour — plus the linens, electricity, gas, the art on the walls, the building gets painted so it looks nice, there’s a cleaning crew, and at the end of the day, you go home and you don’t have to do the dishes.”

That famous chicken at Zuni, by the way, has gone from $28 in 1995 and $48 in 2014 to $54 in 2016.

Did you know about S.F.'s erotic supper club, "Our Gourmet Life"? Even if you didn't, you've probably assumed that a) something like that exists and b) the food is probably mediocre.

Enter Aurora Wells, who recently shed light on the supper club and shared her experience as a server for Our Gourmet Life for New York Magazine. The dinner parties, which have been thrown by self-taught cook Chris Hubbard and his dancer wife since 2011, feature servers who go from running plates to some decidedly un-health department approved fondling (read the piece for a new definition of "fork-feeding"). To wit:

"... it became clear that the Harem Coordinator and one or more servers lived there with Hubbard and his wife — like a sex-cult family. Women were primping or lounging, drumsticks in hand ... I greeted the H.C. on the couch; he was casually fingering a server as she chewed fleshy mouthfuls of poultry."

Yum? To be fair, that was back when the dinners were wilder and less "refined" than they are today. Once dinner starts the rules of the experience state that all touching should occur above the waist, but you're welcome to stare all you want. From Our Gourmet Life's website:

Our hauntingly beautiful staff weave elements of eroticism throughout your dining experience. From the sensual way they serve dinner, adorned in mini-aprons and sexy heels, to the way they play with each other across from you...expect to be tantalized.

Far be it for us to critique anyone's sexual fantasies, but doesn't this all seem just a little bit passé? I mean, mini-aprons and black masks? Heels and nipple caviar? It all sounds a little eighties, doesn't it?

The appeal for diners is pretty clear, but what about the servers themselves? Wells explains that working as a server is an opportunity to explore her sexy side and get loose with other attractive people. It's certainly not money: all the sexy servers are unpaid volunteers.

But while posing as a "statue" bent over a table for 45 minutes sounds more like work than pleasure to us, this is S.F. after all. Land of sexual freedom, avid foodies, etc. etc. Whatever floats your gravy boat is alright by us, whether it's refined french fusion with sexy servers or something a little more original, like hot pastrami in bed.

[NY Mag]

In late breaking Berkeley dining news, Joyce Carol Oates (author of some of the greatest American works of our time) read Berkeley restaurant Venus to filth last night, Tweeting: "Second & last near-inedible vegan meal in Berkeley, this one at Venus on Shattuck. Didn't expect not to be charged but--maybe an apology?"

Grrrl.

Was it the 1979-sounding Vegan Stirfry (featuring coconut curry, trumpet mushrooms, fennel, roasted winter squash, broccoli robe, jasmine rice)? One can only wonder. The Shattuck Avenue restaurant, we should point out, isn't vegan-only and, in addition to glowing reviews, maintains four stars on Yelp.

The noted scribe later found solace by referencing Henry James' preface to What Maisie Knew. Classic Oates!

Larry Ellison's personal and far less dazzling remake of The Music Man, happening right here in San Francisco, is turning into a veritable storm of shit. First, this toy-boat viewing party on the Bay will not generate nearly as much revue as promised. And now food trucks, a staple of San Francisco's food zenith, are getting the bum's rush.

San Francisco Business Times reports:

In a request for proposal put out March 27 by Levy Premium Foodservice — recently chosen as the “master concessionaire” for the race’s events running July through September — food and beverage companies were invited to submit applications to participate as vendors in the cup’s main event areas.

However, one line specifically states that there will be absolutely no food trucks permitted in either the America’s Cup Park at Piers 27 and 29 or the America’s Cup Village at Marina Green.

What an incredibly sanity-free idea.

When asked about the ban, Tim Jeffery, director of public relations for the America’s Cup, went on to explain to San Francisco Business Times that they've used these newfangled food trucks, "and that was a very successful arrangement."

Eater also expressed bewilderment at the idea of banning food trucks, noting, "Considering there have been trucks at America's Cup warm-up events, this one's a headscratcher."

Indeed.

Look for this silly ban to get overturned faster than Larry Ellison's AC45.

Baghdad by the Bay has seen its fair share of restaurants tank with alarming speed and frequency. But some joints manage to stay at the top. They are as representative of San Francisco as the Golden Gate Bridge, Sutro Tower, and wackadoo politics. And now, here are our picks for the city's best classic restaurants.

ACQUERELLO
Sure, this place has its fair share of awards (a Michelin star in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012), but it's a very San Francisco place to go for top-notch service of the highest order. The classic Parmesan budino (described by Michael Bauer as the finest, most exquisite custard, surrounded by tiny greens and topped with black truffle caviar) is also a must ... as is a fat wallet. Acquerello also boasts a wonderful cheese cart. (Every restaurant should be required to have a cheese cart, really. Even Burger King.)
1722 Sacramento (at Polk)

BEACH CHALET
This classic standby is great for entertaining out-of-towners, but it's actually got a lot of local charm, too. Their food and service is just average, but they've been making their own chalet beer since before craft brews were a twinkle in your eye, and the sweeping view of Ocean Beach, usually shrouded in fog, makes you want to cozy up with a creamy entree and one, or five, drinks. The best parts are the charming downstairs frescoes and mosaics created by artists commissioned by the WPA during the Great Depression, so you can enjoy some bonafide SF history while waiting in line for the bathroom.
1000 Great Hwy (at Ocean Beach)

DELFINA
Opened way back in the heady, pre-Facebook days of the late '90s, Delfina has become not only an anchor of the 18th Street gourmet ghetto, but also one of the most respected and consistently wonderful Italian restaurants in the country. They've spun off a pizzeria, and the Rome-focused Locanda, but Delfina remains the glowing flagship, and still a tough reservation to get, fifteen years in (we recommend trying to walk in as a two-top, or snagging a seat at the bar on a weeknight). You seriously can't go wrong with anything on the menu, and every house-made pasta is perfect and beautifully presented, but don't miss their vegetable contorni, the excellent roast chicken, or the grilled Monterey Bay calamari.
3621 - 18th Street (at Guerrero)

Downright adorable, these little fellas.

GARY DANKO
Awards galore, sublime service, a name that echoes five-star ratings, a killer menu. Yeah, yeah. For us, it's all about the little muffins they give you at the end of the meal, wrapped in gold foil and emblazoned with a Gary Danko sticker.
800 North Point (at Hyde)

Martini orgy at House of Prime Rib. (photo: Jennifer Maiser)

HOUSE OF PRIME RIB
Nowhere in San Francisco can you slink into a booth, order a dry martini, and slip back in time so completely as you can at House of Prime. Despite its old-school simplicity and MSG-laden salad dressing (quite good, we should say), this place lands on Michael Bauer's Top 100 year after year. Put away your cell phone, order one of several cuts of awesomely tender prime rib (there is almost nothing else on the menu), talk about a Bogart flick, and pretend it's 1949. Because in this restaurant, it pretty much still is.
1906 Van Ness (at Jackson)

LA TRAVIATA
Eating at this old-school Italian restaurant is like visiting Olive Garden's grandmother -- you know, the nonna that actually came direct rom Italy. When you're here, you actually feel like family, and you eat like it too. A cozy, romantic ambiance, opera music and basket of warm bread set the stage for Italian comfort food classics like tortellini, lasagne and pasta di mare. Order a bottle of wine, get comfortable, and save room for the tiramisu and panna cotta.
2854 Mission Street (at 24th Street)

ORIGINAL JOE'S
While Joe's new space on Washington Square may not have quite as many years behind it as the iconic lunch counter that eventually spawned a nation of red-leather imitators, the restaurant still pulses with an old-school vibe that never feels like it's trying too hard. Here you'll find beat cops ending their shifts with plates of Italian-American comfort food, steaks cut to Kennedy-administration portions and retired civic leaders putting back one too many $6 Manhattans.
601 Union (at Stockton)

Swan Oyster Depot was also deemed "the Best Place in to Eat in America" by Lucky Peach. (photo: Drew Altizer for Lucky Peach)

SWAN OYSTER DEPOT
The original restaurant with lines coming out the door, this place offers some of the freshest seafood in the country: Dungeness crab, oysters, clam chowder, seafood "cocktails." Simple and clean, the century-old spot is also a staple of Polk Street and a huge hit with locals and tourists alike. Expect kitsch, charm, hospitality, and a full belly when you leave.
1517 Polk (at California)

Even the sign outside Tadich Grill is a local treasure. (photo: Demetrios Lyras)

TADICH GRILL
Steeped in heritage, Tadich Grill has been serving folks in downtown San Francisco for over 160 years. The average Tadich Grill server has been a professional server for over 33 years and with Tadich Grill an average of 16 years. And the average bartender has been a professional bartender for over 30 years and with Tadich Grill for over 17 years. (No ink sleeves or snotty attitudes about vodka-based drinks here!) The menu is delightfully old-school and the best place to sit here is, of course, at the counter. Really, you aren't a true San Franciscan until you've been here at least once. (That goes for you, too, assholes in the Mission.)
240 California (at Battery)

Zuni's roast chicken & bread salad makes Zuni a San Francisco staple. (photo via Zuni Café)

ZUNI CAFÉ
Zuni Café opened in 1979 and served simple and authentic Mexican food to locals. After Judy Rodgers took over the kitchen in 1989, her roast chicken and bread salad became not only a classic but an iconic dish; one that, once revealed to the world, sent home cooks' ovens up to ungodly temperatures. Ever since, the Market Street staple has been the go-to place for novice foodies visiting the city.

After a particularly debaucherous night board a Mexican Bus -- a birthday party that took your editor from the Castro to the Marina and back again, a fete of which we recall very little -- we hightailed it back out to the Marina on Sunday morning for a press feast at the Presidio Social Club.

PSC, if you recall, is on federal land and can still legally serve foie gras. (This lady knows what we're talking about!) And while we didn't have any illicit fattened duck liver that morning, we enjoyed one of the best brunches we had in a long time.

Also of note, Presidio Social Club is also a choice spot for brunch with the family. We spotted piles -- piles! -- of children at tables behaving like perfect young ladies and gentlemen. Normally, that would jar the average single San Franciscan into sobreity. But it was a pleasant accompaniment in between bloody marys and wry conversation.

Presidio Social Club: 563 Ruger (at Lyon), S.F.; 415-885-1888

In yesterday’s dose of the Daily Dish, renown restaurant critic and food writer Ruth Reichl predicted formal dining was going to make a comeback, and we’re listening because ... it's Ruth Reichl.

She says twenty- and thirty-somethings know a lot about food, and spend a lot of money on it even though we’re pretty broke (true, true). However, within five years or so, we should expect to see the overall dining experience elevated. “Grand dining,” as she calls it. "Sounds good," mumbles a group of young people with mouths full of $12 sandwich they just got at a food truck.

Does this mean pop-ups will continue to drift off into oblivion and we’ll kick the communal table and stools habit? Ruth seems to think so. “They’re going to want to go out and get more for their money than just another place you can get good food and shout at each other."

Same money, better dining. Good idea, Ruth.

San Francisco is notoriously devoid of high-end late-night dining options, but in a town known for excessive alcohol consumption and bar hopping, diners boast loads of booze-soaking options from which to choose. Great ones, in fact. And with that, here are our favorite diners in the city:

ORPHAN ANDY'S
It's the only 24-hour diner in the Castro, and they do a pretty decent burger, as well as breakfast all night long -- we mostly recommend pancakes, or some scrambled eggs. (Also, Playboy once named it among the Top 10 Late-Night Diners in the country.) It's not where you go for a perfect milkshake or divine fries, but the well-greased food certainly does the trick at 3 a.m. after you've struck out at the sidewalk sale outside The Cafe -- or after you've already danced your embroidered-jeans ass off at Badlands, hooked up in someone's front hallway on Diamond Street, cleaned up, and gone out in search of a snack.

3991 - 17th Street (at Castro), SF, 415-864-9795

THE GRUBSTAKE
This Polk Gulch diner is so legendary in the seedy-turned-fratty 'hood that it's been commemorated in song not once but twice. They make a mean patty melt, but the best kept secret about this place is the whole Portuguese section of the menu, which is pretty unique in this city, and features delicious stuff like eggs with linguica and fries, and bacalhau a gomes de sa (salt cod with potatoes, onion, hard boiled eggs, parsley, and olives). Also, they're open until 4 a.m., and the scene in here after the bars close can be insane, but also totally hilarious.

1525 Pine (at Polk), SF, 415-673-8268

CITIZEN'S BAND
In the '80s and '90s we had Fog City Diner (which is now set to close and reopen as the less diner-inspired Fog City), but a more contemporary take on higher end food in a diner-like setting can now be found at this SoMa gem. The menu is American comfort food, both unpretentious but original in its interpretations, like poutine with pork belly and wild mushroom gravy, and fried chicken with mixed chicories, local honey, and coffee gravy. Added bonuses: A great, sloppy burger, and a mean brunch.

1198 Folsom (at Eighth Street), SF, 415-556-4901

LOUIS'
While it may not be a 24-hour affair, Louis' boasts arguably the best scenic view of any greasy spoon on the planet. The diner has been perched on a cliff above the ruins of the Sutro Baths overlooking the Pacific Ocean for over three-quarters of a century, making it something of a national treasure as well. A recent revamp updated the menu with fair trade coffee, locally sourced breakfast meats and cage-free eggs for the omelets while still keeping all of its family-run, "more coffee, hun?" charm. Louis' is an only-in-San Francisco spot that we hope sticks around for decades to come.

902 Point Lobos Ave (between Merrie Way & Upper Great Hwy), SF, 415-387-6330

THE LUCKY PENNY
At the intersection of Masonic Ave and Geary Boulevard, the Lucky Penny feels like a roadside pitstop on an urban highway out to the ocean. Like spotting a diner on a desolate stretch of highway, the fact that there is actually some place open to eat is more important than the food itself, which serves its purpose of lining your stomach with a thin layer of bacon fat at an odd hour of the night. That and the Wi-Fi is free, in case you need to grease your keyboard with a plate of hashbrowns at 4 a.m.

2670 Geary (at Masonic), SF, 415-921-0836

Sparky's 24 Hour Diner (photo: Tha_Sco)

SPARKY'S DINER
Sure, it's not the best place for food. Cantankerous reviewers on Yelp can tell you that much. But it is one of the top spots in the city to hit after the clubs close in the Castro. After 2 a.m, one can see the drunken/high masses munching on french toast, chocolate shakes, cheese fries, and burgers. It's a scene to be seen in after bars close. Also of note? It's one of the few 24-hour diners left in the city. No longer 24 hours! However, it is open until the wee hours: Mon - Fri: 5pm - 4am. Sat & Sun: 11am - 4am.

242 Church (at Market), SF, 415-626-8666

Joe's Cable Car Restaurant (photo: sfistrita)

JOE'S CABLE CAR RESTAURANT
This Excelsior standby has been around since 1965, and its menu reflects that old-school diner ethos. With classics like grilled cheese, fish and chips, corn dogs and milkshakes, Joe's spot at Mission and Silver Avenue delivers on diner essentials, but the real draw is the ground ribeye and chuck steaks that Joe grinds fresh daily. Choose between 16 variations on the 4-, 6- and 8-ounce ground steak (like the patty melt fresh ground beef steak with cheese on rye) and top it all off with a slice of carrot cake. Just remember that Joe's closes at 10 p.m., so plan ahead for late-night cravings.

4320 Mission (at Silver Avenue), SF, 415-334-6699

Chicken sandwich at Pinecrest Diner (photo: Augustine Y./Yelp)

PINECREST DINER
Classic old-school diner that prepares food the San Francisco way: slightly greasy with an organic flair. This Union Square staple serves up astounding patty melts and grilled cheese, but the highlight here is breakfast. Choice crispy hasbrowns, fluffy eggs, and bacon cooked crisp (such a rarity at many diners) will have you ready to take on shopping at nearby department stores. Speaking of eggs, the diner played host to a grizzly murder in the '90s. The diner manager told the cook not to prepare the poached eggs a patron had ordered. The next day, the cook shot the manager to death. The two had worked together for twenty years. (Read all about the notorious crime here.)
