Full disclosure is the sincerest form of flattery.

I knew about this place long before they opened - their website would show up on google searches for ours. I did some poking around. Though I never met them, they must have seen at least our website. Some of their friends could have visited. The resemblances are uncanny. Could a messianic fervor have seized the owners, forcing them against their will to name a restaurant after two commonplace kitchen utensils? It just seemed too coincidental.

But in this article, they come clean (in the first paragraph no less)! Now I feel like even if I’m vaguely on the West Coast, I will stop by for a meal.
