Daily Dining News: Fox & Goose Expansion Details
October 03, 2011
Fox & Goose, the venerable pub at R & 10th St., announced recently that it was planning to expand the footprint of its restaurant. Sac Press's Dora Bromme has more on the plan:
A project to expand the loading dock in front of the W.P. Fuller building, which houses the pub and several other businesses, will soon yield an additional 46 seats on an outdoor patio, complete with new railing, lighting and tables for two or four...
The project, which Dalton estimates to cost over $100,000, will no longer include a 4 foot extension of the dock towards the street, but will still extend from the West edge of the Fuller building eastward toward the the center of the building dock, ending just before the middle stairwell and ADA ramp.
All tables on the patio will be railside, to allow room for a walkway, seating a total of 40 to 46 persons on the deck. The total length of the patio will be 129 feet with 8 feet of width.

The 53-year-old chef and former officer in the Lebanese army opened his small, humble restaurant on Fulton Avenue in 2002, turning his back on a landscaping career because he really longed to be around people. He wanted to cook, to serve, to entertain. He wanted to have a restaurant that made people happy via the subtle, eclectic and nourishing cuisine of his homeland.
