- Jonathan Gold: Gwen, a manly restaurant and butcher shop, simply screams 'steak' ↗
Los Angeles Times
National authorityJonathan Gold · Dec 8, 2016
“Critic review of Curtis Stone's butcher-shop-plus-restaurant concept; descriptive framing of the retail butcher's counter and whole-animal/dry-aging practice, no specific external farm/producer named in the cached extract (confirmed by reading past the photo-caption block into the article's opening paragraphs).”

LA Weekly
Local authority“Review: the butcher counter is 'stocked with some of the highest quality meat, much of it sourced from Blackmore, the Australian beef producer considered among the best in the world,' adding that 'Blackmore was not available in the U.S. until now; Stone became an importer in order to get his hands on the product.'”
