San Francisco's Buzziest Bakers Collab on Exclusive Cookie Drop
is the associate editor for the Northern California and Pacific Northwest region writing about restaurant and bar trends, coffee and cafes, and pop-ups. An old-school San Francisco chocolatier is working with four trendy confectioners for one week this August. In honor of National Cookie Day on Monday, August 4, Ghirardelli linked with Tano, StaySweetSF, Sixth Course, and the French Spot for their own riffs on chocolate chip cookies. At Sixth Course, it's a milk and cookies gelato pop, for instance, and at the French Spot there's a hazelnut mocha cookie. The spread of treats is available until Sunday, August 10. The partnership marks a keen sense of spotting buzzy bakers by the longtime San Francisco-founded chocolate company. Tano, one of the city's most line-inducing bakeries this year, is serving Guamanian-inspired coconut candy dark chocolate chip cookies. StaySweetSF — a fine dining pastry chef's love letter to the city — is serving hojicha-infused cookies at Shoji on Saturday, August 9 and Commis on Sunday, August 10. Mister Jiu's brings back banquet menus The country's only Michelin-star-holding Chinese restaurant Mister Jiu's is ditching its tasting menu. As of Wednesday, August 6 the a la carte menu is back in action in addition to a Chinatown-inspired banquet meal for $125 built around its famous Peking duck. The San Francisco Chronicle reports chef Brandon Jew felt the tasting menu wasn't quite the right vibe, but he's still not sure how the math maths going forward; the tasting menu pivot was to try and keep the checkbook balanced in the first place. Bulldog-inspired wine bar hits SF The now-closed Turkish restaurant Tuba is set to flip into Frenchie by the end of August. It's helmed by former La Mar Cocina Peruana wine director Joel Arias and is a nod to Arias's French bulldog Dolcetto. Wines grown by the cycles of the moon and organic fare alike star on the menu. The San Francisco Standard reports there'll even be an on-site dog walker for fellow pup lovers. Famous winery opens books for 2026 The Robert Mondavi Winery, one of California's most famous wineries and closed since 2023, is now taking reservations for its official grand reopening in spring 2026, lining up with the Oakville property's 60th anniversary. Three packages are available, ranging from $55 to $125 with various levels of engagement on the estate (and increasing amounts of wine drinking) scaling throughout the options. Reservations, sure to be snatched up quick, can be made through Tock.

Justin Bieber Vows to Change as Wife Hailey Gives Him One ‘Final Shot': Source (Exclusive)
Justin Bieber is trying to make up for his recent behavior — and his wife, Hailey Bieber, is giving him a chance to change, according to a source. 'Justin has completely thrown himself at Hailey's feet, begging for another chance and promising he'll do whatever it takes to fix things,' a source tells Star. 'He's telling her he's ready to grow up and make her and their family the priority.' 'Hailey's accepted his promises, but she's also made it very clear this is his final shot. She loves him, but she can't keep living on this rollercoaster with him,' the insider shared. 'She's laid out a list of things she wants to see changed. No more public meltdowns, no more immature behavior, and he's got to cut way down on his weed habit.' The source said the 'Baby' singer is 'really trying' and taking the 28-year-old Rhode founder's requests 'very seriously' explaining, 'He even did a total detox to prove he's serious. Things have been very good the last couple of weeks.' However, the source noted that this has been a recurring pattern in their relationship. 'Justin pushes Hailey to her breaking point, and things explode, and all sorts of threats and promises are made, and then they make up, and things are good for a while before the cycle starts again,' the source shared. The pop star — who shares a 10-month-old son, Jack Blues, with the model — has made headlines in recent months as fans express concern about his well-being. In June, Justin took to Instagram to share concerning posts, including one in which he admitted he was 'broken' and copped to having 'anger issues.' Justin followed up that post by sharing a video on his Instagram Story that addressed infidelity. In May, the two-time Grammy Award winner shared a photo of his wife's Vogue cover on his Instagram and detailed a 'huge fight' between them in which he told her 'she would never be on the cover of Vogue.' He later changed the caption to read '🤷🫵🏻🫶🏼🥹' — leading fans to speculate Hailey was unhappy with his original statement. In her Vogue interview, Hailey discussed the public's ongoing scrutiny of her marriage. 'Well, I thought seven years in it would've already [died down], and it hasn't,' she told the publication. 'You would think after having a child, people would maybe move on, chill out a little bit, but no.' Justin continues to keep the public on their toes: Despite his cryptic social media behavior, he shared a loving post hugging Hailey on July 6, writing, 'My forever n always 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕,' in the caption. Days later, Justin released his new album Swag, in which he seemingly referenced his marriage. On the track 'Walking Away' he sings, 'Girl, we better stop before we say some s**t. We've been testing our patience. I think we better off if we just take a breath and remember what grace is.' Solve the daily Crossword
