Flour + Water = pasta and pizza. Yes, the name for this place is fitting enough; all that's needed for an excellent meal is this simple combination…with a touch of sauce and garlic. The concept itself is simple: A neighborhood space that provides diners with tasty Italian bites: crisp Neapolitan pizzas made in an authentic Italian oven, fresh hand-rolled pastas, and house-cured salumi. Under the sign you'll find a menu from Chef Thomas Naughton and Outer Mission denizens David Steele and David White that contains thoughtful sampling of all the primo, secondi, forno and dolci classics you crave -- in a cozy, steampunked setting. - Excerpt from Flour + Water, Steampunked Italian by Chrissy Loader
