Scott Tycer making a comeback with Textile
Apparently Scott Tycer has had enough of my whining.
A Chronicle story today about a new location for Krafts’men Baking in the old Oriental Textile Mill building in the Heights has a brief aside about his new restaurant, set to launch this summer:
Tycer also plans to open a restaurant there called Textile, which will employ about 18 people. Set to open in July, Textile will serve "technique-driven" French-American food, similar to the cuisine at Aries, with more affordable wine prices.
Two of the best restaurant spaces I have visited lately are Anchor & Hope and Orson in San Francisco. Both successfully blend the character of the old buildings they occupy with modern design elements with rather striking results.
Orson, San Francisco
Judging by this crappy photo of the Oriental Textile Mill, Textile the restaurant has a ton of potential. Plus, it will be away from the Washington strip madness. Major plus.

Very exciting news, I have heard this and that here and there about a new restaurant, good to see it in print! Can’t wait to eat there.
I wonder if that awesome antiques shop — Installations, I’m pretty sure it’s called — will still be operating there as well… That would be a lot of different uses of one space: Installations, the lofts/apartments at the rear of the property, the security firm to the left of Installations and now a restaurant — and a Scott Tycer restaurant at that? Impressive! I love it!
