A downtown bakery serves beer and donuts, Chef Tim Kolanko talks Liberty Public Market, The Best Thing I Ate This Week, and more

By Archana Ram

In this week’s installment of the hottest dining and drinking news, hosts Erin Chambers Smith and Troy Johnson open with buzzy openings and menu changes around town, including Donut Bar’s new beer service and a popular Little Italy pizzeria that’s added a second location in La Jolla.

Plus, our crew discusses next moves for East Village community space The Quartyard, as well the merits of a peanut bitter-Jameson shot, Blue Bridge Hospitality Executive Chef Tim Kolanko chats Liberty Public Market’s insane popularity, and 17 San Diego breweries team up for a very special cause.
