FocusSnapEat: Rosamunde Sausage Grill Makes a Home in Swan’s Marketplace in Oakland
One thing nice about living in Oakland these days is that it doesn’t take that long for San Francisco classics to find their way here.

I often would see crowds flowing out of Rosamunde’s Haight Street location (they also have a spot in the Mission), and now I don’t have to wade through the hipster crowd for a taste. Read on…

Seasoning and Salt: Rosamunde Sausage Grill, Oakland CA
Open now for just over a month, the Swan’s Marketplace location of Rosamunde is the fourth (after two in San Francisco and one in Brooklyn, NY). Each shop has something that sets them apart from the other three – the one on Mission St. in SF has 27 beers on tap! – and the Oakland Rosamunde, being so new, has yet to figure out its niche.
