Cotogna to Open Real Soon, Louis’ Gets a Ten-Year Reprieve, and More

FiDi/North Beach: Quince’s new casual cousin, Cotogna (490 Pacific Avenue) now appears set for an early November opening, following a few of the usual-type delays. [Grub Street]
Meanwhile, next door at Quince, Chef Michael Tusk is teaming with acclaimed Napa winegrower and farmer Lee Hudson to create the ultimate locally-sourced menu: a five-course meal comprised of meats, vegetables, wines and other foodstuffs from Hudson Ranch in Carneros. The menu will be available October 25 to 31 for $85 per person. [Grub Street]
Outer Richmond/Ocean Beach: You’ll recall the brouhaha earlier this year over the 73-year-old Louis’ Restaurant, which sits on federal land? Well, they got a reprieve: a ten-year lease agreement that requires them to start using locally sourced, sustainable food and come into ADA compliance. They’ll be shuttering for a four-month remodel on December 1. [Chron]

Mission: The 101-year-old (!) Double Play Bar & Grill (2401 16th Street) has added dinner service Wednesday through Friday nights. [SFoodie]
Lower Pacific Heights: Thai standby Khoon Chang (1901 Divisidero) has closed after 21 years. [Tablehopper]
