A top Bay Area chef closed his wine bar. Now he's reopening with a return to his Vietnamese roots
A popular wine bar and restaurant in Oakland's Montclair Village is returning with a new focus. French-Mediterranean restaurant and wine bar Perle is resurfacing after closing at the end of March. This time around, chef-owner Rob Lam wants the space to be more laid back, with Vietnamese comfort dishes and cocktails. He plans to reopen at 2058 Mountain Blvd. in mid-August, naming this iteration Perle Bar. 'We wanted to do something nice and elegant in the hills, and we succeeded,' said chef-owner Rob Lam, who opened the original Perle in 2017, and also operates Vietnamese restaurant Lily in San Francisco's Richmond District. This time around he is taking inspiration from his mother's first restaurant in Orange County's Little Saigon, where she served takeout dishes like noodle bowls with roast duck for a flourishing community in the 1980s. Perle Bar's menu will include banh mi with turmeric fried catfish, rice noodle plates with barbecue pork, and broken rice bowls with steamed pork and egg dressed with fried shallots. 'These dishes are very true to my heart,' Lam said. Longtime business partner Dino Vazquez, who has managed Lam's former restaurants, such as now-closed Eastside West and Butterfly on the Embarcadero, is developing the cocktail menu with drinks like a Vietnamese iced coffee martini. Seasonal cocktails in the works include a fig negroni and a paloma incorporating chai and rosemary. Lam, who doesn't drink anymore, wanted non-alcoholic options beyond the usual bottled sodas. Offerings inspired by Vietnamese-style fruit smoothies, or sinh to, will include a kiwi-cucumber 'mojito' and a strawberry yogurt drink sweetened with honey. Other drinks include teas flavored with fresh pressed fruits and Vietnamese-style iced coffees. The owner hopes neighbors in the Montclair area, where dining and takeout options are limited at night, will respond positively. To lure in sports fans, he's also installed two 100-inch flat screens. When Perle closed, Lam cited the impacts of COVID-19 on the neighborhood, as well as the departure of Oakland's three pro sports franchises. Lam chose to return after a long back-and-forth with the property owner, he said, who made the improvements that Lam had asked for the space. Operating in Oakland is challenging, he acknowledged, but he's determined to make things work in the city where he's invested so much. 'I raised my kids in Oakland,' he said. 'I owe Oakland a lot.'

Apple expecting $1.1B in tariff costs next quarter
Apple expects to face $1.1 billion in tariff-related costs next quarter, on top of $800 million from the previous three-month period, Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday. The iPhone maker, which has been hit particularly hard by President Trump's tariff push, still reported strong quarterly earnings, posting $94 billion in revenue and $23.4 billion in net income for the stretch between April and June. Apple sold $44.5 billion worth of iPhones last quarter, up 13 percent from the same three-month period last year, at least part of which the company attributed to consumers trying to get ahead of tariffs. 'We would estimate the pull-forward of demand into April specifically to be about one point of the 10 points in terms of people buying because of discussions about tariffs,' Cook said, referencing the 10 percent up-tick in sales last quarter. The company has found itself in a tricky position on tariffs in Trump's second term. It has long manufactured most of its products in China but has increasingly sought to diversify its supply chain by moving some production to India and Vietnam. This has been less than beneficial given the president's wide-ranging approach to tariffs this time around. Trump initially hit all three countries with hefty 'reciprocal' tariffs before putting most on pause. Tariffs on Chinese goods remained in place, as Washington and Beijing went tit-for-tat on import taxes, raising levies on one another to 145 percent and 125 percent, respectively. The two sides eventually struck an agreement to lower their tariffs to 30 percent and 10 percent, a truce they agreed to extend Tuesday for an additional 90 days. In the meantime, Apple has shifted more production to India, prompting the country to overtake China as the leading exporter of smartphones to the U.S. last quarter. India saw a massive 240 percent increase in American smartphone shipments compared to the same time last year. However, the tariff situation continues to shift. As Trump's pause on 'reciprocal' tariffs was poised to expire Friday, he announced several new trade deals and tariff rates on dozens of countries. In early July, Trump said he reached a deal with Vietnam, in which U.S. goods would enter the country duty-free while Vietnamese imports would face a 20 percent tariff and shipments through Vietnam would face a higher 40 percent rate. He announced Thursday that India would face a 25 percent tariff, in addition to a penalty for buying military equipment and energy from Russia. While Apple grapples with an ever-changing tariff environment, it is also attempting to compete with other tech giants on artificial intelligence (AI), a space where it seems to have lagged behind. Cook said Thursday that the iPhone maker plans to 'significantly' expand its investments in the technology, while also underscoring the company is 'very open' to mergers and acquisitions that 'accelerates our road map.' 'We see AI as one of the most profound technologies of our lifetime,' he said on Thursday's earnings call. 'We are embedding it across our devices and platforms and across the company. We are also significantly growing our investments.'

IHG Pursues Business Travelers Through Emirates and Other Deals
IHG's new deal with Emirates is as part of broader push to capture the underserved corporate segment. Expect more partnerships that offer fast-track loyalty status in exchange for direct bookings. IHG signed a partnership agreement with Emirates this week, the latest move in the hotel group's multiyear strategy to capture more business from small- and medium-sized enterprises that lack the resources of large corporations but still need travel arrangements. The deal allows business travel customers of both companies to access benefits from the other, creating what IHG executives describe as a community of services for companies with fewer than 500 employees. The goal is to encourage more direct bookings, avoiding commissions charged by online travel agencies. Participating companies whose employees are members of Emirates' loyalty program can now re
