The other morning, Jon and I were driving to Ikea -- where, among other things, we picked up a six-pack of their yummy cinnamon buns (just $4!) . While stopped at the freeway exit, we noticed that next-door to the San Francisco Soup Company's EPA location (which I previously wrote about) is a LuLu Petite. I had no idea that it had opened up there! I think the eatery has been around since October or so? In addition to hot specials, pre-made salads and sandwiches are available.
LuLu Petite is from the people behind San Francisco's Restaurant LuLu and Azie; there's also another LuLu Petite in the city's Ferry Plaza Building. In the (650), they operate Zibbibo in Palo Alto.

P.S. In case you're wondering, it looks like the Four Seasons right there is opening next month. They're accepting reservations for February 1 arrivals. The hotel itself will feature an Italian restaurant (Quattro), as well as a bar (cleverly named The Bar) with indoor and outdoor seating. Much to my delight, The Bar is going to offer a traditional afternoon tea!
