Perhaps he is, but don't dare offer any form of constructive criticism because he will attack you personally. Their "tipping" policy sucks, and frankly the food is decent -- but not THAT good (at least for the inflated prices). Mostly, I was appalled at his incredibly arrogant and pretentious attitude when I commented on the tipping and poor service (from my one experience). Jerks like that do not deserve to stay in business. This is a great article and it makes Jay sound like a visionary.

I got my B.S. in City Planning at SDSU, learned more about urban planning philosophies through that program. Sounds like the Masters program is more about learning the bureaucratic process. Jay is right, it's businesses and residents who really have a voice in shaping the community. Nobody ever listens to the city planners. I can't wait to go back to the Linkery at their new location. I've noticed that braised pork belly has been showing up in their menu. I'm a sucker for a nice slab of pork belly. Just read your interview with Jay.

I actually haven't been back here in a while. I had bad experience with a brined pork loin. If you like the type of food they serve I suggest trying Urban Solace (http://urbansolace.net/index.php). It doesn't claim to support sustainable food like the Linkery but its yummy American comfort food with a classy spin at a great value. Thanks for posting the interview.

Jay from the Linkery IS one of the very few genuine and honest restaurant owners around.......he makes a great product..and puts his heart into it. I met him twice.....and each time he was very "real". Thanks for capturing that!! Great job! Very cool interview.

Very, very cool chat you had here. Man, there are some great small biz owners in SD. Jay sounds like a righteous hombre. Dude, you’re a friggin journalist now, too?

I hadn't realized Jay started as an engineer (I'm more of a Master Planner civil engineer - more water, less computers). We definitely keep up with his blog to check out what's coming up on the menu.
