"Rooney Mara Debuts Baby Bump, Expecting Second Child with Joaquin Phoenix"

Closure of La Cocina's Municipal Marketplace Food Hall in the Tenderloin Announced for September 1

La Cocina, the incubator for businesses led by women, immigrants, and people of color, is closing its public-facing food hall, Municipal Marketplace, in San Francisco ahead of schedule due to financial challenges. The food hall, which opened in April 2021, will shut down on September 1, about one-and-a-half years earlier than planned. La Cocina will continue to operate the La Paloma bar and a small lunchtime pop-up, but the closure of the food hall is a setback for the Tenderloin and Civic Center areas. Despite this, the neighborhood has seen exciting restaurant openings, including Outta Sight Pizza, Azalina's, and SPRO Coffee.
