"bio": "I was the Senior Digital Producer for KQED Food up until July, 2018. Since 2001, I designed, produced, managed and contributed to mostly food-related websites and blogs for KQED including: KQED.org; KQED Food; Bay Area Bites; Check, Please! Bay Area; Taste This; Celebrity Chefs; seven of Jacques Pepin's TV series websites; and Joanne Weir's Cooking in the City. I initiated the majority of KQED Food's social media feeds and maintained them up until 2017. As far as content creation, photography is my passion and I also shoot video and write stories. My photos have been used in articles for KQED Food, News, Arts, and Science as well as for promotional purposes in print and online. Professional education and training includes: clinical psychology, photography, commercial cooking, web design, information architecture and UX.",

Who wouldn't want to outsource the mess when little Noah and Ellie learn to make their first kale salads? With cooking camps, kids bring home the skills--and hopefully, enthusiasm for new and healthy foods--and leave the spills and dirty pots and pans behind. Even better for busy parents, there's no lunch to pack, no dreaded snack duty, and no feigning enthusiasm at the sidelines of yet another no-score, \u003cem>but-Dad-she-tripped-me!\u003c/em> soccer game. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.bayleafkitchen.org/camp\">Bay Leaf Kitchen\u003c/a> is the latest entry into the kids' cooking-camp category.

At CUESA, she launched the free field-trip program \u003ca href=\"http://www.cuesa.org/about-cuesa/programs/foodwise-kids\">Foodwise Kids\u003c/a> for San Francisco public school students at the Ferry Plaza farmers' markets, and helps coordinate school activities and outreach at the markets. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The idea for a summer cooking and farming camp came to her in November 2013. Since then, she's raised over ten thousand dollars in an IndieGoGo crowdfunding campaign, and is now registering campers (ages 9-12) for two week-long sessions, June 16-20 and July 21-25. Camp days run from 9am-4pm daily, with one overnight camp-out at the popular \u003ca href=\"http://www.eatwell.com/\">Eatwell Farm\u003c/a> in Winters.

How does a seed become a plant? How does a plant turn sunshine into food? Why are peaches sweet and peppers hot? Done right, a farm trip can be a living biology lesson, complete with plenty of excuses for getting dirty along the way. \"The market was such a natural classroom,\" said Friedman when we spoke with her last month. \"Kids loved to pick stuff out,\" and then eat the fruits and vegetables they'd discovered. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Part of having a good relationship with food is exploring it on your own,\" said Friedman. \"There's no wrong way to make a salad or a soup.\" (Presumably, Bay Leaf Kitchen's middle schoolers will not be tasked with following the full six-step \u003ca href=\"http://insidescoopsf.sfgate.com/blog/2013/11/06/behold-jeremiah-towers-brilliant-instructions-on-how-prep-lettuce-at-stars/\">Jeremiah Tower protocol\u003c/a> for washing lettuce at Stars.) And while there will be hands-on cooking and education, Friedman promises that the approach will let kids be \"wacky, silly, have a lot of fun, learn to explore and play in the kitchen,\" with time for free outdoor recreation in nearby parks as well as at the farm.

The farm has animals--including cows, horses, and chickens--as well as a year-round variety of fruits, vegetables, and flowers (especially lavender) under cultivation. Friedman, who knows Eatwell owner Nigel Walker and his wife Lorraine, said the collaboration came together easily. \"It felt so natural. Lorraine had been wanting to run a kids' program. They have a lot of adult programs up at the farm already.\" Planned farm activities might including milking the cows, gathering eggs, and of course, harvesting vegetables for farm feasts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The farm aspect is what really sets this camp apart, Friedman told us. Coming to the farm can help kids understand where their food comes from, an experience that can have a life-long impact. Sure, it's cool to have knife skills like Bobby Flay, but connecting a pesto pizza with the rain that opens a seed, the sunshine that nourishes it, the cow whose milk makes the cheese and the people who pick the basil and harvest the wheat? Now those are real life stories. \u003c/p>\n\n",

They have a lot of adult programs up at the farm already.\" Planned farm activities might including milking the cows, gathering eggs, and of course, harvesting vegetables for farm feasts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The farm aspect is what really sets this camp apart, Friedman told us. Coming to the farm can help kids understand where their food comes from, an experience that can have a life-long impact. Sure, it's cool to have knife skills like Bobby Flay, but connecting a pesto pizza with the rain that opens a seed, the sunshine that nourishes it, the cow whose milk makes the cheese and the people who pick the basil and harvest the wheat? Now those are real life stories. \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Next to that was a scoop of \u003ca href=\"http://massaorganics.com/\">Massa\u003c/a> Organics’ brown rice studded with currants. The rest of my plate was filled out with a curry of asparagus, cauliflower, broccoli, squash and potatoes. To make the curry, each of the vegetables was cooked separately and folded into a rich sauce made from a blend of tahini, cashews and caramelized vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_82004\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 700px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/radiance-food700.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-82004\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/radiance-food700.jpg\" alt=\"Radiance Plate and Lemon-Ginger-Mint Cooler\" width=\"700\" height=\"1050\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Radiance Plate and Lemon-Ginger-Mint Cooler\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>I also gobbled up every last bite of a fragrant bowl of dal; a staple Indian soup. In this version, two forms of traditional dal were combined, resulting in a hearty brew of lentils, carrots, celery and fresh ground spices like cumin and coriander. Adding to my enjoyment of the dal – and the curry – was something that might disappoint others: no fire in my mouth except maybe a hint of pepper, enabling me to detect the diverse infusion of flavors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"82039,82010,82001\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I washed it all down with a “lemon cooler” made from fresh squeezed lemons, spearmint, and ginger and finished my meal off with a nibble of “Choco-Laddu.” This dense, lightly sweet treat – known affectionately by customers as “radiance crack” – is made from toasted chickpea flour and swirled with dark chocolate. It’s essentially a much healthier take on traditional laddu, an Indian confection typically made with loads of sugar and clarified butter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81999\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/radhanath-kilimba1000.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-81999\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/radhanath-kilimba1000.jpg\" alt=\"Radhanath Alvarez and Kilimba G.

Alvarez, chef/owners of Radiance Cuisine\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>If you think all this seems like a complex culinary undertaking for purveyors of a tiny bookstore café, you are right. \u003ca href=\"http://www.radiancecuisine.com/Site/About_Us.html\">Jerry ‘Radhanath’ Alvarez and Kilimba G. Alvarez\u003c/a> are the husband and wife team behind Radiance Cuisine and they take cooking seriously, to say the least. Both are devotees of the deity Krishna (also written as “Krsna”), a branch of Hinduism dubbed “the kitchen religion” in the 1960s because of its emphasis on food as a means of connecting to the divine. The chefs take inspiration from a wide range of eastern and western traditions, but what guides their approach to making any dish is a perception of food preparation as an act of love and offering to Krishna. As Radhanath explained,\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“We cook everything the same way a loving grandmother would for her grandchildren—from a place of love, using only the best possible ingredients.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"82009,82002,82037\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long before they met each other, Radhanath and Kilimba honed their cooking skills while living at different west coast ashrams where they had to \u003cem>earn\u003c/em> the privilege of entering the sacred kitchen. Radhanath later made his way to another ashram in Hawaii, and eventually opened his own restaurant in downtown Honolulu. Kilimba continued to nurture her culinary creativity and other artistic pursuits at international retreats and festivals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As part of their devotional practice Radhanath and Kilimba also cultivated their musical talents, which brings us to part two of my evening. On the third Saturday of every month, both chefs exchange their aprons for instruments and sit on the stage floor along with a group of master musicians who join them for an hour-long kirtan jam. Guitar, bass, violin and percussion combine with the ethereal tones emanating from Kilimba’s harmonium to create a complex tapestry of sounds. But it’s the hypnotic and passionate drumming by Radhanath on his two-headed Indian \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mrdanga\">mrdanga\u003c/a> drum that really got under my skin and let me lose myself in the music.\u003cbr>\n[youtube //www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRAqvpZ4Xm4?start=392&version=3]\u003cbr>\nSong sheets are passed out to help audience members repeat the Sanskrit chants. As someone whose vocal skills leave much to be desired, I usually shy away from public singing. Relief washed over me when I saw that some people were just listening, eyes closed while moving their bodies to the beat. I did dare to join in at times (quietly), spurred by the promise of those benefits to my \u003ca href=\"http://health.usnews.com/health-news/blogs/eat-run/2013/10/02/your-brain-on-om-the-science-of-mantra\">brain\u003c/a> and emotional well-being.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the songs are about Krishna, but as Kilimba explained, many of the words and stories invoke universal themes relevant to people of all faiths. The same goes for the food. “Although the food is vegan, about 80% of our customers are omnivores,” said Kilimba. “After having lunch here, they may go home and eat a giant pork chop for dinner – and that’s totally fine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are no prerequisites or judgments here, just an open invitation to enjoy some good food and music to help loosen the cobwebs in our bellies, hearts and minds.\u003cbr>\n[youtube //www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpRIJYXh9TA]\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Information:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://www.radiancecuisine.com/Site/Radiance_Cuisine.html\">Radiance Cuisine\u003c/a> at Open Secret Bookstore\u003cbr>\nAddress: \u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/bBPmuO\">Map\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n923 C Street\u003cbr>\nSan Rafael, CA 94901\u003cbr>\nPhone: (415) 686-3442\u003cbr>\nHours: Wed-Sat 12pm-7pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Radiance-Cuisine/351100510287\">Radiance Cuisine\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Radiance-Kirtan/317321304967501\">Radiance Kirtan\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Next Radiance Kirtan at Open Secret:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nRadiance Kirtan with Radhanath, Kilimba and Friends\u003cbr>\nSaturday, May 17, 7:30-9:30pm\u003cbr>\nKirtan including Radiance dinner $20\u003cbr>\nKirtan only $10- $25 donation at the door\u003cbr>\n(Come early for dinner with Radiance Cuisine.

Next to that was a scoop of \u003ca href=\"http://massaorganics.com/\">Massa\u003c/a> Organics’ brown rice studded with currants. The rest of my plate was filled out with a curry of asparagus, cauliflower, broccoli, squash and potatoes.

Alvarez\u003c/a> are the husband and wife team behind Radiance Cuisine and they take cooking seriously, to say the least. Both are devotees of the deity Krishna (also written as “Krsna”), a branch of Hinduism dubbed “the kitchen religion” in the 1960s because of its emphasis on food as a means of connecting to the divine. The chefs take inspiration from a wide range of eastern and western traditions, but what guides their approach to making any dish is a perception of food preparation as an act of love and offering to Krishna. As Radhanath explained,\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“We cook everything the same way a loving grandmother would for her grandchildren—from a place of love, using only the best possible ingredients.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Radhanath later made his way to another ashram in Hawaii, and eventually opened his own restaurant in downtown Honolulu. Kilimba continued to nurture her culinary creativity and other artistic pursuits at international retreats and festivals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As part of their devotional practice Radhanath and Kilimba also cultivated their musical talents, which brings us to part two of my evening. On the third Saturday of every month, both chefs exchange their aprons for instruments and sit on the stage floor along with a group of master musicians who join them for an hour-long kirtan jam. Guitar, bass, violin and percussion combine with the ethereal tones emanating from Kilimba’s harmonium to create a complex tapestry of sounds. But it’s the hypnotic and passionate drumming by Radhanath on his two-headed Indian \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mrdanga\">mrdanga\u003c/a> drum that really got under my skin and let me lose myself in the music.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/dRAqvpZ4Xm4?start=392'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/dRAqvpZ4Xm4?start=392'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cbr>\nSong sheets are passed out to help audience members repeat the Sanskrit chants. As someone whose vocal skills leave much to be desired, I usually shy away from public singing. Relief washed over me when I saw that some people were just listening, eyes closed while moving their bodies to the beat. I did dare to join in at times (quietly), spurred by the promise of those benefits to my \u003ca href=\"http://health.usnews.com/health-news/blogs/eat-run/2013/10/02/your-brain-on-om-the-science-of-mantra\">brain\u003c/a> and emotional well-being.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the songs are about Krishna, but as Kilimba explained, many of the words and stories invoke universal themes relevant to people of all faiths. The same goes for the food. “Although the food is vegan, about 80% of our customers are omnivores,” said Kilimba. “After having lunch here, they may go home and eat a giant pork chop for dinner – and that’s totally fine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are no prerequisites or judgments here, just an open invitation to enjoy some good food and music to help loosen the cobwebs in our bellies, hearts and minds.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/vpRIJYXh9TA'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/vpRIJYXh9TA'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Information:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://www.radiancecuisine.com/Site/Radiance_Cuisine.html\">Radiance Cuisine\u003c/a> at Open Secret Bookstore\u003cbr>\nAddress: \u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/bBPmuO\">Map\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n923 C Street\u003cbr>\nSan Rafael, CA 94901\u003cbr>\nPhone: (415) 686-3442\u003cbr>\nHours: Wed-Sat 12pm-7pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Radiance-Cuisine/351100510287\">Radiance Cuisine\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Radiance-Kirtan/317321304967501\">Radiance Kirtan\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Let us know your favorites in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"81188,81187,81184,81185,81183,81189,81181,81192,81193,81179,81180,81182,81191\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housed in a former laundromat, you'll find that the suds now being served up at Hog's Apothecary are of the tasty hoppy variety. With long, wooden communal tables and an expansive bar filling up the large, airy space, proprietors Bradford Earle and John Streit run their American-style beer hall under the motto of where \"locavore meets locapour.\" 38 taps of Californian beer and wines flow from the wall behind the bar and pair well with the diverse array of seasonal dishes prepared with locally-sourced ingredients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chef Streit was on the premises, busy expediting the entrees emerging from the kitchen for his patrons. You won't find the usual buffalo chicken wings and nachos bar fare on his whimsical menu, which includes such starters as, \"Fries with Eyes,\" deep-fried Eureka smelt with green garlic aioli, and \"Chokes & Favas,\" marinated artichokes piled on a barley salad with fresh favas, ricotta salata, black olives and a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmaltz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">schmaltz\u003c/a>-fried egg. The fruity triple IPA, \"Dank Statement,\" from the San Francisco-based \u003ca href=\"http://www.cellarmakerbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cellarmaker Brewing Company\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sierranevada.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sierra Nevada's\u003c/a> \"Southern Hemisphere\" fresh hop IPA are a fine match to these rich appetizers. Prep your palate with the Bay Laurel sour beer from \u003ca href=\"http://www.craftsmanbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Craftsman Brewing\u003c/a>, which has a sparkly champagne taste with an unusual finish reminiscent of cured meats -- specifically salami. Then you'll be ready to move on to the housemade sausage sandwiches like the \"Istanbul not Constantinople,\" a Middle-Eastern spiced pork sausage with charred nettles and \"Amargallego,\" a pork-and-chicken sausage topped with salsa brava, crispy potatoes and Calabrian chile, nestled between pillowy-soft buns with a side of pickled vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if you ate the entire giant pile of lard-fried Kennebec potato chips that accompanied your sausages, try and make room for their noteworthy peach and pretzel fritters with \u003cem>creme anglaise\u003c/em>. My husband and I shared this decadent dessert with one of our table mates, Lauri, a devoted regular of the bar. Both the Old Stock Ale, a barleywine from Ft. Bragg's \u003ca href=\"http://www.northcoastbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">North Coast Brewing Company\u003c/a> and \"Carlo's Stout\", an imperial stout from Alameda's \u003ca href=\"http://factionbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Faction Brewing\u003c/a>, are excellent beers to wash down your sugary treat. By the end of your meal, you'll more than likely be sharing the sentiments shown on the sign around the neck of Theo, the towering carved wooden sculpture of a dancing pig perched on a counter: \"This beer is making me awesome.\" Stay tuned for further developments as brunch and outdoor seating are in the works.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.hogsapothecary.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hog’s Apothecary\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n375 40th St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/pDvl2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94609\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 338-3847\u003cbr>\nHours: Everyday from 5pm-12am, closed on Tuesdays\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/TheHogsApothecary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Hog's Apothecary\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/HogsApothecary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@HogsApothecary\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"81485,81486,81489,81490,81494,81484,81491,81487,81488,81492, 81493,81480,81482\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.gaumenkitzel.net/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gaumenkitzel\u003c/a> \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n2121 San Pablo Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/d3WUI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94702\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 647-5016\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Sun 11:30am-9pm; Fri-Sat open 11:30am-10pm\u003cbr>\nLunch 11:30am-2pm; Afternoon Menu 2-5:30pm; Dinner starting 5:30pm\u003cbr>\nWeekend Brunch 11:30am-2:30pm; Happy Hour Tue-Fri 2-5:30pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Gaumenkitzel-Restaurant/161594813893300\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gaumenkitzel\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/gaumenkitzel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@gaumenkitzel\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're looking for an alternative to Alameda-based \u003ca href=\"http://www.speisekammer.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Speisekammer\u003c/a>, head over to Berkeley for a uniquely Bay Area take on German cuisine. Hamburg ex-pats, the husband-and-wife team Kai Flache and Chef Anja Voth, have recreated their childhood favorites with an all-natural approach. Eschewing artificial additives, canned or processed ingredients, even microwaves and deep fryers, this solar-powered restaurant prides itself on preparing everything from scratch -- including yogurt and bread. They also serve sustainably raised fish and meat and use locally grown, organic produce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along with offering the largest German beer selection in the Bay Area, they also have plenty of sausage options available on their menu. A substantial starter is their platter of liver sausage and tangy north German butter cheese that comes with a small mixed green salad and orange-honey dressing, grated carrot-thyme salad, roasted beets, pickles and their housebaked Gaumenkitzel whole wheat bread with fresh unsalted butter. Or you could opt for a sausage plate and choose from three \u003cem>Nürnberger bratwürste\u003c/em> sausages, two \u003cem>wiener knackwürste\u003c/em> or one Bavarian white sausage with their housemade potato salad accented with dill. A delicious variation on the classic American combo of mac-and-cheese with hot dogs is the delicatessen \u003cem>wiener knackwürste\u003c/em> on \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sp%C3%A4tzle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">spätzle\u003c/a>\u003c/em> dish. This German gnocchi-like pasta is dressed in a housemade mustard and sharp cheddar sauce with slices of \u003cem>wiener knackwürste \u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An easy way to sample their draft beers is through their tasting menu that's served on a map of Germany that indicates their region of origin, or just flip through their sizable beer menu to peruse their collection of bottled beers like the Schönramer Saphir \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bock\u003c/a>, a bright, 8% ABV ale with fruity notes. Or try one of their exclusive imports, the Grevensteiner \u003cem>Kellerbier\u003c/em> (cellar beer) that's an unfiltered, unpasteurized 5.2% ABV pilsner that's reminiscent of caramel and honey. You can also get bottles to go; check out their small shop that's stocked with beer, wine, jams, chocolate and other German foodstuffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"81367,81368,81372,81371,81369,81376,81370,81374,81378,81379,81380,81381,81373,\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the former space of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/oakland/on-telegraph-and-transformation/Content?oid=3192045\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">now departed Mama Buzz coffeehouse\u003c/a>, Telegraph is a popular destination with locals in search of reasonably priced comfort food in an urban beer garden setting.

Otto Seibold -- can accommodate lots of customers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's an assortment of appetizing housemade sausages offered daily. Two recent specials included the beer brat and chipotle chicken on fresh hoagie buns topped with jalapeño-cilantro slaw and mayo served with a side of potato chips. Other sandwiches, burgers and breakfast items are also available if you're hankering for other options.

While The Trappist doesn't carry the substantial assortment of housemade sausages as Stilphen's recently opened \u003ca href=\"http://www.mikkellerbar.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mikkeller Bar\u003c/a> in San Francisco, they do have two transplants from that establishment: a plump, juicy bratwurst poached in Sculpin IPA with a potato hash and the delectable pastrami sandwich with Gruyère, housemade sauerkraut and dressing on rye. (And it seems he'll be launching a \u003ca href=\"http://insidescoopsf.sfgate.com/blog/2014/03/18/trappist-and-mikkeller-bar-owner-plans-berkeley-bbq-restaurant-perdition-smokehouse/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sausage company that bears the same name\u003c/a> in the near future with Trappist chef Michael O’Brien.) Along with cheese plates and charcuterie, O'Brien cooks up some creative concotions like \"Green Eggs & Eggs\" made with soft-boiled eggs, wasabi, tobiko, Japanese mayonnaise and habanero oil. There's also some alcohol-infused desserts, like the imperial stout chocolate mousse with roasted hazelnuts and whipped cream.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Customers can unwind in the Old World brick-and-wood ambience of the front or back bars or relax in their outdoors back patio. The Dutch Trappist beer, La Trappe Quadrupel, hails from De Koningshoeven Brewery and packs a sugary punch at 10% ABV. And it's no surprise to find more offerings from Mikkeller, the Danish brewery that's partnered with Stilphen's aforementioned city venture. Mikkeller Big Worse Barleywine is a sweet, honey-like tonic while the crisp, light Belgian Saison Dupont is a refreshing summer beer.

Brotzeit's kitchen utilizes whole animal butchery in preparing their sausages and burgers, and all of their sauerkraut, sauces, pickles and mustards are also housemade. Share the \u003cem>käsespätzle\u003c/em>, a creamy baked version of the German noodle dish with Gruyère cheese sauce, for a filling starter. Then move onto their Brotzeit platter -- choose from one or two sausages from their lengthy list -- with sauerkraut, green beans, radishes and a \"Bretzel\". You can also order a more substantial helping to feed a hungry group; the larger entree can feed between 6-8 people. While the meat-to-bun ratio is slightly unbalanced with their lamb \u003cem>merguez\u003c/em> wurst sandwich, it's still a palatable option with sauerkraut, pickled red onions and jalapeño.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brozeit Lokal has a rotating menu of German, Belgian and Californian craft beers; if you're feeling extra thirsty, go for a liter of Kolsch or a two-liter boot while you enjoy the view of the Brooklyn Basin.\u003c/p>\n\n",

With long, wooden communal tables and an expansive bar filling up the large, airy space, proprietors Bradford Earle and John Streit run their American-style beer hall under the motto of where \"locavore meets locapour.\" 38 taps of Californian beer and wines flow from the wall behind the bar and pair well with the diverse array of seasonal dishes prepared with locally-sourced ingredients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chef Streit was on the premises, busy expediting the entrees emerging from the kitchen for his patrons. You won't find the usual buffalo chicken wings and nachos bar fare on his whimsical menu, which includes such starters as, \"Fries with Eyes,\" deep-fried Eureka smelt with green garlic aioli, and \"Chokes & Favas,\" marinated artichokes piled on a barley salad with fresh favas, ricotta salata, black olives and a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmaltz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">schmaltz\u003c/a>-fried egg. The fruity triple IPA, \"Dank Statement,\" from the San Francisco-based \u003ca href=\"http://www.cellarmakerbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cellarmaker Brewing Company\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sierranevada.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sierra Nevada's\u003c/a> \"Southern Hemisphere\" fresh hop IPA are a fine match to these rich appetizers. Prep your palate with the Bay Laurel sour beer from \u003ca href=\"http://www.craftsmanbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Craftsman Brewing\u003c/a>, which has a sparkly champagne taste with an unusual finish reminiscent of cured meats -- specifically salami. Then you'll be ready to move on to the housemade sausage sandwiches like the \"Istanbul not Constantinople,\" a Middle-Eastern spiced pork sausage with charred nettles and \"Amargallego,\" a pork-and-chicken sausage topped with salsa brava, crispy potatoes and Calabrian chile, nestled between pillowy-soft buns with a side of pickled vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if you ate the entire giant pile of lard-fried Kennebec potato chips that accompanied your sausages, try and make room for their noteworthy peach and pretzel fritters with \u003cem>creme anglaise\u003c/em>. My husband and I shared this decadent dessert with one of our table mates, Lauri, a devoted regular of the bar. Both the Old Stock Ale, a barleywine from Ft. Bragg's \u003ca href=\"http://www.northcoastbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">North Coast Brewing Company\u003c/a> and \"Carlo's Stout\", an imperial stout from Alameda's \u003ca href=\"http://factionbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Faction Brewing\u003c/a>, are excellent beers to wash down your sugary treat. By the end of your meal, you'll more than likely be sharing the sentiments shown on the sign around the neck of Theo, the towering carved wooden sculpture of a dancing pig perched on a counter: \"This beer is making me awesome.\" Stay tuned for further developments as brunch and outdoor seating are in the works.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Hamburg ex-pats, the husband-and-wife team Kai Flache and Chef Anja Voth, have recreated their childhood favorites with an all-natural approach. Eschewing artificial additives, canned or processed ingredients, even microwaves and deep fryers, this solar-powered restaurant prides itself on preparing everything from scratch -- including yogurt and bread. They also serve sustainably raised fish and meat and use locally grown, organic produce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along with offering the largest German beer selection in the Bay Area, they also have plenty of sausage options available on their menu. A substantial starter is their platter of liver sausage and tangy north German butter cheese that comes with a small mixed green salad and orange-honey dressing, grated carrot-thyme salad, roasted beets, pickles and their housebaked Gaumenkitzel whole wheat bread with fresh unsalted butter. Or you could opt for a sausage plate and choose from three \u003cem>Nürnberger bratwürste\u003c/em> sausages, two \u003cem>wiener knackwürste\u003c/em> or one Bavarian white sausage with their housemade potato salad accented with dill. A delicious variation on the classic American combo of mac-and-cheese with hot dogs is the delicatessen \u003cem>wiener knackwürste\u003c/em> on \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sp%C3%A4tzle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">spätzle\u003c/a>\u003c/em> dish.

Or try one of their exclusive imports, the Grevensteiner \u003cem>Kellerbier\u003c/em> (cellar beer) that's an unfiltered, unpasteurized 5.2% ABV pilsner that's reminiscent of caramel and honey. You can also get bottles to go; check out their small shop that's stocked with beer, wine, jams, chocolate and other German foodstuffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While The Trappist doesn't carry the substantial assortment of housemade sausages as Stilphen's recently opened \u003ca href=\"http://www.mikkellerbar.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mikkeller Bar\u003c/a> in San Francisco, they do have two transplants from that establishment: a plump, juicy bratwurst poached in Sculpin IPA with a potato hash and the delectable pastrami sandwich with Gruyère, housemade sauerkraut and dressing on rye. (And it seems he'll be launching a \u003ca href=\"http://insidescoopsf.sfgate.com/blog/2014/03/18/trappist-and-mikkeller-bar-owner-plans-berkeley-bbq-restaurant-perdition-smokehouse/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sausage company that bears the same name\u003c/a> in the near future with Trappist chef Michael O’Brien.) Along with cheese plates and charcuterie, O'Brien cooks up some creative concotions like \"Green Eggs & Eggs\" made with soft-boiled eggs, wasabi, tobiko, Japanese mayonnaise and habanero oil. There's also some alcohol-infused desserts, like the imperial stout chocolate mousse with roasted hazelnuts and whipped cream.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Customers can unwind in the Old World brick-and-wood ambience of the front or back bars or relax in their outdoors back patio. The Dutch Trappist beer, La Trappe Quadrupel, hails from De Koningshoeven Brewery and packs a sugary punch at 10% ABV. And it's no surprise to find more offerings from Mikkeller, the Danish brewery that's partnered with Stilphen's aforementioned city venture. Mikkeller Big Worse Barleywine is a sweet, honey-like tonic while the crisp, light Belgian Saison Dupont is a refreshing summer beer.

Share the \u003cem>käsespätzle\u003c/em>, a creamy baked version of the German noodle dish with Gruyère cheese sauce, for a filling starter. Then move onto their Brotzeit platter -- choose from one or two sausages from their lengthy list -- with sauerkraut, green beans, radishes and a \"Bretzel\". You can also order a more substantial helping to feed a hungry group; the larger entree can feed between 6-8 people. While the meat-to-bun ratio is slightly unbalanced with their lamb \u003cem>merguez\u003c/em> wurst sandwich, it's still a palatable option with sauerkraut, pickled red onions and jalapeño.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We've compiled a rough guide of San Francisco bites in the downtown area -- since that's where the vast majority of tourists stay and explore. Some of these are classic San Francisco (oysters on the bay, hipster bars, hole-in-the-wall burritos) and some are lesser-known spots that are must-visits because of their tasty food or unique meals. Try some; try all. We're just keeping you on your toes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The guide is primarily aimed at downtown San Francisco and divided into quicker eats for lunch, sit-down places for dinner (or a big lunch), coffee and tea spots, and bars.

We've compiled a rough guide of San Francisco bites in the downtown area -- since that's where the vast majority of tourists stay and explore. Some of these are classic San Francisco (oysters on the bay, hipster bars, hole-in-the-wall burritos) and some are lesser-known spots that are must-visits because of their tasty food or unique meals. Try some; try all. We're just keeping you on your toes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The guide is primarily aimed at downtown San Francisco and divided into quicker eats for lunch, sit-down places for dinner (or a big lunch), coffee and tea spots, and bars. If you want to venture further afield and ride BART a few stops, we've also suggested a few places that you may have heard of or that would make any list of places to visit in the city on the Bay. Use the Google Map at the bottom to find locations and to plan your eating foray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let us know what you think after you try some of these. Or, tell us what we missed that our visitors simply have to eat while they're here.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>FOOD - Lunch, Snacks, Quick Hits\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81607\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 190px\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.cuesa.org/markets\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/7165771078_e776153d10_z-190x190.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Gary Yost Photography for CUESA/Flickr\" width=\"190\" height=\"190\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-81607\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: \u003ca href=\"https://www.flickr.com/photos/cuesa/7165771078/in/photolist-bVds6d-bVdBxj-bVdfnA-cnpfvN-cnV4RN-cnUURs\" target=\"_blank\">Gary Yost/Flickr\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cuesa.org/markets\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Ferry Building Farmers Market\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Farmers Market,\u003c/em> $$\u003cbr>\nFerry Building Plaza\u003cbr>\n(415) 291-3276\u003cbr>\nTues, Thurs, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Sat, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Why? \u003c/strong>Local farmers sell produce, meat, and cheeses.

Back in 2005, I moved to Portland, Oregon to go to college. It was there that I discovered a chicken shack tucked away on a quiet stretch of SE Division Street. Perhaps \u003cem>chicken\u003c/em> is a misnomer; this tiny building was selling Thai-style grill-roasted game hens stuffed full of ginger and lemongrass alongside sticky rice and optional papaya salad.

These days, Ricker’s restaurant, \u003ca href=\"http://www.pokpokpdx.com/\">Pok Pok\u003c/a>, and its subsequent siblings in Portland and New York, has changed the way many of us perceive Thai food.

Even more troubling, they are actually used on animals that are not sick, [but] just to speed up their growth and to enable the crowded conditions for their housing. This is a huge environmental issue because it’s potentially on the food -- these antibiotics resistant bacteria -- as well as the antibiotic residue, and it’s also in the environment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_77097\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 290px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/LEXISHORT2-ANTIBIOTICFREE_03.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-77097\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/LEXISHORT2-ANTIBIOTICFREE_03-290x163.jpg\" alt=\"Antibiotic-free\" width=\"290\" height=\"163\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nearly 80% of the antibiotics in this country aren’t used on people but on animals we eat.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Problems with antiobiotic use:\u003c/strong> \"The biggest problem with using antibiotics in animal farming is the potential for their overuse...When they are overused by continually feeding them in their daily feed, which is common practice today in the United States, is when populations of bacteria [on farms] evolve that are very resistant to these drugs. When humans come in contact with those bacteria, either by being on the farm or even by eating the food products from that farm, a person can contract an illness that cannot be treated with antibiotics. It’s really a huge human health issue and I think that really is the primary concern.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Antibiotics for treatment vs. accelerating growth:\u003c/strong> \"The interesting thing is…there are these two totally different uses. The one is for treating an individual animal that is actually sick and treating them with the prescribed dose. That usage of antibiotics has not been shown to contribute to the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In contrast to that usage, [there's] the usage of sub-therapeutic antibiotics, where animals are continually being given this low dose. \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/LEXISHORT2-ANTIBIOTICFREE_Roughcut_11-2.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-77098\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/LEXISHORT2-ANTIBIOTICFREE_Roughcut_11-2-290x163.jpg\" alt=\"Sub-therapeutic antibiotics\" width=\"290\" height=\"163\">\u003c/a> This has been shown repeatedly in many studies to foster the rise of antibiotics-resistant bacteria. In my opinion, using antibiotics to treat an illness of an individual animal is entirely defensible and actually a good practice. Whereas, overusing antibiotics and continually feeding them to speed the animal’s growth is a totally unacceptable practice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Beef as an efficient food source:\u003c/strong> \"Beef has often cited as a very inefficient food source. I would rather argue that depends on how those animals are raised. If you’re raising them in a way that you require a lot of grain to be produced, a lot of water to be used in producing that feed, then indeed it’s an inefficient food source. On the other hand, if you’re raising cattle in an area with natural grassland -- especially if doesn't have to be irrigated -- it could be an extremely efficient food source. And not only that, it can utilize this grazing natural grassland that really could never be used for any other form of food production. Depending on how and where we're raising cattle, it can be a very efficient food source.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Local vs. regionally-produced beef:\u003c/strong> \"I would never argue that meat should be totally locally produced. It’s always been the case that certain geographies are more appropriate raising of certain types of animals than other geographies. Therefore I will argue more for a regional kind of food system, where foods are produced in sort of large food shed areas and certain foods maybe transported longer distances -- if they are produced especially well in certain geographies. This is actually a good example of food that probably could never be totally locally produced if you want it really an efficient system because you have huge swath of the United States, especially in the far West, that are natural grasslands and are uniquely suited for cattle grazing. It would actually be wasteful to totally not use it for that purpose if we're trying to think about the most efficient food system.

Even more troubling, they are actually used on animals that are not sick, [but] just to speed up their growth and to enable the crowded conditions for their housing. This is a huge environmental issue because it’s potentially on the food -- these antibiotics resistant bacteria -- as well as the antibiotic residue, and it’s also in the environment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_77097\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 290px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/LEXISHORT2-ANTIBIOTICFREE_03.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-77097\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/LEXISHORT2-ANTIBIOTICFREE_03-290x163.jpg\" alt=\"Antibiotic-free\" width=\"290\" height=\"163\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nearly 80% of the antibiotics in this country aren’t used on people but on animals we eat.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Problems with antiobiotic use:\u003c/strong> \"The biggest problem with using antibiotics in animal farming is the potential for their overuse...When they are overused by continually feeding them in their daily feed, which is common practice today in the United States, is when populations of bacteria [on farms] evolve that are very resistant to these drugs. When humans come in contact with those bacteria, either by being on the farm or even by eating the food products from that farm, a person can contract an illness that cannot be treated with antibiotics. It’s really a huge human health issue and I think that really is the primary concern.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Antibiotics for treatment vs. accelerating growth:\u003c/strong> \"The interesting thing is…there are these two totally different uses. The one is for treating an individual animal that is actually sick and treating them with the prescribed dose. That usage of antibiotics has not been shown to contribute to the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In contrast to that usage, [there's] the usage of sub-therapeutic antibiotics, where animals are continually being given this low dose. \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/LEXISHORT2-ANTIBIOTICFREE_Roughcut_11-2.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-77098\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/LEXISHORT2-ANTIBIOTICFREE_Roughcut_11-2-290x163.jpg\" alt=\"Sub-therapeutic antibiotics\" width=\"290\" height=\"163\">\u003c/a> This has been shown repeatedly in many studies to foster the rise of antibiotics-resistant bacteria. In my opinion, using antibiotics to treat an illness of an individual animal is entirely defensible and actually a good practice. Whereas, overusing antibiotics and continually feeding them to speed the animal’s growth is a totally unacceptable practice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I would rather argue that depends on how those animals are raised. If you’re raising them in a way that you require a lot of grain to be produced, a lot of water to be used in producing that feed, then indeed it’s an inefficient food source. On the other hand, if you’re raising cattle in an area with natural grassland -- especially if doesn't have to be irrigated -- it could be an extremely efficient food source. And not only that, it can utilize this grazing natural grassland that really could never be used for any other form of food production. Depending on how and where we're raising cattle, it can be a very efficient food source.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Local vs. regionally-produced beef:\u003c/strong> \"I would never argue that meat should be totally locally produced. It’s always been the case that certain geographies are more appropriate raising of certain types of animals than other geographies. Therefore I will argue more for a regional kind of food system, where foods are produced in sort of large food shed areas and certain foods maybe transported longer distances -- if they are produced especially well in certain geographies. This is actually a good example of food that probably could never be totally locally produced if you want it really an efficient system because you have huge swath of the United States, especially in the far West, that are natural grasslands and are uniquely suited for cattle grazing.
