The WestWood

The WestWood Each day we get to the restaurant & put our walking shoes on. We hope you enjoy our efforts. He brings many years of experience and a young soul to his cooking.

With incredible bounty all around us, our Chefs have the opportunity to touch & select every ingredient from each dish that is being served that day. Our philosophy is to receive no deliveries, each dish is individually shopped & chosen for by our team. We look to work with the many Mission District markets that are within walking distance of our front door & put their hard work & passion on displ

ay through our food. Our menu will reflect not only the changing season's but also embrace the daily selections that are available to us. Chef Jonny Becklund has cooked in some of San Francisco's finest kitchens; Coi, La Folie, Jeanty at Jacks, Magnolia, Zinnia and the Tipsy Pig. Chef Jonny has also had the honor of cooking at the James Beard House with Restaurant Omakasi in Southern California. Right now Chef is loving the spring vegetables, the amazing pig & seafood products that are available to him here in the Mission District. Each day Chef gets to inspect and decide if those ingredients will make it on to the plate and he is loving this exciting way to cook. In this way, he can imagine many a young chef sourcing ingredients from their immediate areas, just like we do at the WestWood popup. Hans Purohit has spent 25+ years in the food & wine industry. He started out working in restaurants at the age of 14, working up to becoming a G.M. at the age of 22. In the years following, along with the restaurant work, he also worked on the brewing side of the beer business, 1st at El Toro Brewing Company and then at Faultline brewing Company. Eventually he needed a new challenge and that found him gravitating to the wine business, where he worked for some of the country's best wholesalers & importers for over 15 years. In 2010, Hans went back to restaurants when he became G.M. & beverage director at Ristobar. Under his guidance, Ristobar received Top 100 status from the San Francisco Chronicle & became one of the hottest restaurants in the Marina. In June of 2011, Hans left Risotbar to explore other opportunities & consult for restaurants in the Bay Area.
