@1,2&4...Why the hate? Beth's description reminds me of the late, lamented Goodchow in Belltown, except with more experienced chefs. Can't wait to try it. Any chef that excited about their ingredients is ok by me.
Haters will hate, and whiners will whine. If you can't afford to eat here, then you be better off sticking with your Jack in the Box fast food Jumbo Jack. Let the man and his waitress do their thing, and they're not hurting you in any way. That's the American way.
Okay, maybe not, but I do draw the line at any server who uses the term "yay!"
