Goodbye, Sun Valley Market; Hello, Room Service

When last we left Sun Valley Market, it was transforming like a pupa in a cocoon into the elegant "fine food & liquor" market/delivery dynamo, Room Service.


Well, it's done. They even have a website now: http://www.sfroomservice.com/

As for the brick & mortar itself? It's pretty much the same place. They cleaned it. Did up the floors. Put in new shelves for the booze and put in a nice new counter.

At this point, the inventory of "fine food and liquors" would appear to be what's left over from the Sun Valley Market days. Like, literally. But, maybe we'll see some new stuff soon.

No fernet so far. Sun Valley Market used to have fernet. Room Service doesn't have it. At least not yet.

But, for now: if you consider Red Vines & Corn Nuts "fine food"; want someone to bring them to you; and you're willing to pay for it- give 'em a click!

R.I.P. Sun Valley Market: UPDATE

As I mentioned before, the Sun Valley Market is no more. It's soon to be replaced by something called Room Service, a "high-end food & wine market" (at least according to the guy who designed the logo).

I was talking about it with my friend, Diana, and she said they were going to include home delivery. The next day, I saw this as I was walking back from my Sunday adventures:

How long has that been there?! I have really got to start paying attention...

The only website I could find for a store called Room Service is a furniture store in Hayes Valley that's part of some mini-chain.

BUT, I Googled the phone number pictured above and got this. So, they're in the phone book at least!

Will a fancy food & wine home delivery/personal shopping service fly in these belt-tightening times? I guess we'll just have to wait & see.

Thanks to Diana Brown for help with this report!
