Cow by Bear is an American pop-up steakhouse founded in San Diego by an anonymous chef dressed as a Kodiak bear.

History

Originally based in San Diego,[1] Cow by Bear was founded in 2011 by an anonymous chef known only as "Chef Bear",[2] who began cooking out of their own apartment.[3] After six years in San Diego, Chef Bear launched Cow by Bear Seattle in partnership with head chef Osa Bear.[4] Chef Bear also commissioned Chef Aleppo Bear to operate a Cow by Bear restaurant in Savannah, Georgia.[5] In May 2019, Chef Bear, together with Osa Bear and Lil' Osito Bear, returned to San Diego.[2]

Description

According to the restaurant's official website, Chef Bear is a Kodiak bear who "was kidnapped at a young age and put into a traveling circus", during which time he "learned to both talk and walk upright", before embarking on his culinary career.[6] However, Chef Bear does not verbally communicate with his patrons, preferring to use either body language or e-mail.[7] The restaurant is only open from Thursday to Saturday during dinner hours and each of its temporary locations has a single table that can accommodate around ten to fourteen diners;[3][8] diners will only receive the restaurant's location by e-mail a day before their reservations.[9] The restaurant serves a five-course tasting menu that changes each month;[7] Chef Bear describes his cuisine as "fine dining, wild animal style".[10] Dishes served include a 50-day dry-aged ribeye steak,[7] smoked salmon, and lamb ragout.[11]

Reception

Writing for Modern Luxury San Diego, Keri Bridgwater called Cow by Bear the "most eclectic supper club" in San Diego.[12] Reviewing the restaurant for the Netflix food reality television series Fresh, Fried and Crispy (2021), Daym Drops commented, "I might need all my steaks done by a bear."[13]
