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.",

On the side she's also a media consultant, specializing in all forms of digital goodness: audio, video, print, design, and social media.\r\n\r\nAfter leaving the tech world nearly a decade ago, \u003ca title=\"The Culinary Life Comfort Food Blog\" href=\"http://www.theculinarylife.com/\">Stephanie\u003c/a> made a career jump to her lifetime love, writing. She currently writes for the Huffington Post, KQED's Bay Area Bites, NPR, and other select media outlets. Her first cookbook,\u003ca title=\"Melt Macaroni and Cheese Website\" href=\"http://www.meltmacaroni.com/\">Melt: The Art of Macaroni and Cheese\u003c/a>, is due out in fall 2013 on Little, Brown with coauthor Garrett McCord.\r\n\r\nBeing a recovering techy leaves an indelible mark, and everything Stephanie does is infused with her deep fascination with digital technology. She has been blogging since 1999, before blog engines even existed and a great readership consisted of a handful of friends who occasionally thought to check out your site. In 2005 she started her first food blog, which she repurposed in 2007 to become \u003ca title=\"The Culinary Life Newsletter\" href=\"http://www.theculinarylife.com/the-culinary-life-newsletter/\">The Culinary Life\u003c/a>.\r\n\r\nStephanie can be called many things: food writer, essayist, professional recipe developer, cookbook author, social media consultant, videographer, documentary maker, website developer, archivist of life. Despite all of these titles, she most commonly responds to \u003cem>Steph\u003c/em>.",

I was one of them. On Saturday morning, as I walked along a dirt path through Lindley Meadow into a eucalyptus grove with parachutes and rope swings dangling from the trees, I thought of how this seemed a cross between \u003ca href=\"http://www.burningman.com/\">Burning Man\u003c/a> and the board game \u003ca href=\"http://www.hasbro.com/games/en_US/candyland/\">Candy Land\u003c/a>. Ok, Outside Lands was fifty degrees cooler than Burning Man and it's in the middle of Golden Gate Park, rather than the desert. Still, the music festival has this collective feel where everyone comes together to appreciate artistic expression, be it music, food, wine or other artistic endeavors. Then, everyone leaves the land no worse for wear, hopefully.

I was one of them. On Saturday morning, as I walked along a dirt path through Lindley Meadow into a eucalyptus grove with parachutes and rope swings dangling from the trees, I thought of how this seemed a cross between \u003ca href=\"http://www.burningman.com/\">Burning Man\u003c/a> and the board game \u003ca href=\"http://www.hasbro.com/games/en_US/candyland/\">Candy Land\u003c/a>. Ok, Outside Lands was fifty degrees cooler than Burning Man and it's in the middle of Golden Gate Park, rather than the desert. Still, the music festival has this collective feel where everyone comes together to appreciate artistic expression, be it music, food, wine or other artistic endeavors. Then, everyone leaves the land no worse for wear, hopefully. In fact, this was the most organized compost and recycling program I have ever seen at a big outdoor event. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/08/windchimeswing-560.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/08/windchimeswing-560.jpg\" alt=\"Wind Chime Swing.

Besides, being eco-friendly and less pricy, the wine tastes just as good as if it was in a bottle. I tried Long Meadow’s 2010 Sauvignon Blanc, poured through a stainless steel tap. It was vibrant and crisp with a little of what seemed like effervescence. I thought it must be the keg but, no, that’s their Sauvignon Blanc. Delicious. Personally, I think the keg is a winner but winemakers are still trying to decouple it from the image of frat parties. Maybe hip, rock musicians can help lead the way.

Parr makes a Chardonnay and a Pinot Noir. The Pinot is elegant, complex and superb. Parr uses only native yeasts in his wines, part of a trend toward a more natural way of making wines. Taking this effort several steps further is \u003ca href=\"http://www.naturalprocessalliance.us/NPA.html\">Natural Process Alliance\u003c/a> which also had a booth at Wine Lands. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NPA is minimalist winemaking which, briefly, includes: Sustainable vineyard management, organic grapes, native yeasts and very little to no added sulfur.

Besides, being eco-friendly and less pricy, the wine tastes just as good as if it was in a bottle. I tried Long Meadow’s 2010 Sauvignon Blanc, poured through a stainless steel tap. It was vibrant and crisp with a little of what seemed like effervescence. I thought it must be the keg but, no, that’s their Sauvignon Blanc. Delicious. Personally, I think the keg is a winner but winemakers are still trying to decouple it from the image of frat parties. Maybe hip, rock musicians can help lead the way. Rumor has it band members from \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfoutsidelands.com/lineup/mgmt/\">MGMT\u003c/a> were seen hanging out at the Long Meadow booth sipping on a 2009 draft Cabernet blend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

What makes them so special?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI consider the farmers markets each their own discrete events. The produce is ever-changing, and each market has its own strengths. I love the Castro and Noe Valley farmers markets, but for different reasons. \u003ca href=\"http://singleguychef.blogspot.com/2009/09/get-fresh-produce-at-castro-farmers.html\" title=\"Castro Farmers Market\">Castro's\u003c/a> got great bakeries (oh the irony, considering the carb-phobic demographic) and gorgeous fruit (no comment); \u003ca href=\"http://www.noevalleyfarmersmarket.com/\" title=\"Noe Valley Farmers Market\">Noe Valley\u003c/a> has Prather Ranch every other week, plus kooky musicians to entertain the kids. Just watch yourself around the stroller bank. It can get tight. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>When the weather heats up, what are your favorite places to eat in San Francisco?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nBecause we have relatively few places with outdoor seating in San Francisco, they get busy when the weather is favorable, so I often avoid them. But I can be swayed to hang out at \u003ca href=\"http://www.theramprestaurant.com/\" title=\"The Ramp SF\">The Ramp\u003c/a> over a couple of beers, and I've recently become enamored with the new \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluestembrasserie.com/\" title=\"Bluestem Brasserie\">Bluestem Brasserie\u003c/a> downtown.

Photo credit: Karen Hester\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first time I heard the term \"East Bay Wineries\" I immediately thought of \u003ca href=\"http://www.lvwine.org/\">Livermore Valley\u003c/a> home to dozens of wineries including \u003ca href=\"http://www.wentevineyards.com/\">Wente\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.concannonvineyard.com/\">Concannon\u003c/a>. I wasn’t aware of the nearly \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayvintners.com/east-bay-wineries/\">twenty urban wineries\u003c/a> that dot the industrial west side of Berkeley and Oakland. As it turns out, one of the best ways to explore the growing East Bay wine scene is by bike. So, one recent hot summer Saturday, I met up with some friends in the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland. We pumped up our tires, donned backpacks to carry our bounty of wine bottles and set off on a twenty mile ride through Oakland. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000883.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000883.jpg\" alt=\"Urban Legends mascot, Sunshine\" title=\"Urban Legends mascot, Sunshine\" width=\"351\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30806\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Steve Shaffer with Urban Legends mascot, Sunshine\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Urban Legend\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nOur first stop: \u003ca href=\"http://www.ulcellars.com/\">Urban Legend Cellars\u003c/a>, one of three wineries in the Jack London Square area. Steve and Marilee Shaffer own and make the wine at this mom and pop cellar and it all happens in the company of their pit bull, Sunshine. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We bellied up to the tasting bar just as they were opening their doors. For five dollars you can run through at least a half dozen tastings and the fee is waived if you make a purchase. I loved these wines -- crisp, acidic, good food wines with not a lot of barrel overtones. Some of my favorites included: a \u003ca href=\"http://www.ulcellars.com/10rosato.html\">2010 Rosato di Barbera\u003c/a> from Clarksburg ($18); a 2009 Rhone style blend of reds called \u003ca href=\"http://www.ulcellars.com/09lolapalooza.html\">Lolapalooza\u003c/a> from Amador County ($26) and a 2009 \u003ca href=\"http://www.ulcellars.com/09uptown.html\">Uptown\u003c/a> from Mendocino County ($20/liter). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now there are a couple of cool things about this last wine. First, it's sold by the liter in a refillable bottle and second, it's named after a neighborhood in Oakland. Each harvest, Steve and Marilee pick a local Oakland 'hood to feature. Next year visitors can expect a West Oakland Wine. \"What will that taste like?\" I asked. \"The wine will likely be a spicy blend of Petite Syrah and Zinfandel, sort of capturing that Brown Sugar Kitchen food renaissance of the neighborhood,\" Marilee told me over the wail of a passing Amtrak train. A scientist by training, she explained her wine making philosophy and answered my friends' many questions which included \"how do you spit properly\" since we were all two-wheeled designated drivers that day. Needless to say, we could have stayed at Urban Legend all day but we had other city cellars to discover. We bought a couple bottles and headed off to the farmers market a few blocks away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000894.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000894.jpg\" alt=\"Irish Monkey Cellars\" title=\"Irish Monkey Cellars\" width=\"500\" height=\"342\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30812\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Irish Monkey Cellars.

We were looking for \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/\">Irish Monkey Cellars\u003c/a> which is easy to miss as it’s located in an industrial park tucked back behind Embarcadero Cove. A banner hanging from a chain link fence gave us a clue we were near. We parked our bikes against the warehouse wall and went into the rather small, but elegant, darkened tasting room where we found the winemaker, Bob Lynch. He was quite chatty and shared the story behind the winery's name. Six years ago he and his wife Loreta coined the name \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/\">\"Irish Monkey.\"\u003c/a> Bob's background is Irish and he wields a unique sense of humor. We started out with a 2008 \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/imc110-torrontes.html\">Torrontes\u003c/a> ($12), the grapes sourced from Lodi. That was followed up with a \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/imc110-viognier.html\">Contra Costa Viognier\u003c/a> and then we moved on to their reds, many award winning. My favorite was a 2009 one hundred percent \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/imc110-merlot-lovall.html\">Napa Merlot\u003c/a> ($24). I liked the diversity of varietals and local vineyards from which Irish Monkey sources. We were eager to get back into the sun so we thanked our host and headed out over the High Street Bridge to Alameda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000896.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000896.jpg\" alt=\"Riding along Alameda\" title=\"Riding along Alameda\" width=\"500\" height=\"365\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30816\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Riding along Alameda.

If we were on an organized \u003ca href=\"http://eastbaywinerybiketours.com/\">East Bay winery bike tour,\u003c/a> this is where we would stop to eat our specially prepared picnic lunch. Owner Jon Zalon’s trips, and his wife's lunches, get rave reviews. But we were a motley crew, armed only with fruit bars and a curiosity for the upcoming wineries housed at the decommissioned naval air station at the tip of Alameda. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000906.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000906.jpg\" alt=\"Looking for Rock Wall Wine Company\" title=\"Looking for Rock Wall Wine Company \" width=\"500\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30819\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Looking for Rock Wall Wine Company.

But we had been finding wineries all day tucked behind chain link fences and graffiti strewn walls. We eventually found the \u003ca href=\"http://www.rockwallwineco.com/\">Rock Wall Wine Company\u003c/a> which provides production space and a tasting bar for more than a half dozen wineries. This is a top of the line tasting bar with expansive views of the Bay Bridge and two city skylines. Rock Wall has a little outdoor patio where on nice days customers can sit at tables and enjoy drinking wine accompanied by small plates cuisine. For our tasting they started us off with a Rock Wall sparkling which was one of my favorites. I also enjoyed the \u003ca href=\"http://www.rockwallwines.com/scripts/winepg.cfm/_/24/Zinfandel,%20Monte%20Rosso%20Vineyard/\">2009 Rock Wall Zinfandel Reserve\u003c/a> from Sonoma. This spicy Zin, which goes for $30 a bottle, was a gold medal winner at the California State Fair this year. Unfortunately, none of my wines included tastings of the other wineries that use the space. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000898.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000898.jpg\" alt=\"Tasting at Rock Wall Wine Company\" title=\"Tasting at Rock Wall Wine Company\" width=\"500\" height=\"365\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30814\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Tasting at Rock Wall Wine Company. Photo: Karen Hester\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The celebratory mood of our Rock Wall visit was probably enhanced by the fact that it was getting later in the afternoon and we were swallowing most of our tastings now. We tried to squeeze in one more stop, \u003ca href=\"https://www.rosenblumcellars.com/about-rosenblum\">Rosenblum Cellars\u003c/a>, one of the largest wineries in the East Bay. But as we approached the winery, we heard \"all aboard\" coming from the ferry dock below. Rosenblum would have to wait for another time. On the five minute ferry ride back to Jack London Square we agreed to visit the winery one warm Sunday afternoon for their \u003ca href=\"https://www.rosenblumcellars.com/visit-alameda/events\">\"Music on the Deck\" series\u003c/a>. I did come back, the next week, to check out \u003ca href=\"http://www.dashecellars.com/\">Dasche Cellars\u003c/a> on 6th Street in the Jack London Square neighborhood. If you like bone dry wines, this urban cellar is for you. I bought a bottle of excellent \u003ca href=\"http://www.dashecellars.com/wines/Zinfandel/2008-Zinfandel-Todd-Brothers-Ranch-Old-Vines-Alexander-Valley?svin=cur\">2008 Todd Brothers Ranch Zinfandel\u003c/a> ($32). If you are curious about East Bay wines and you want to experience as many as possible in just one trip, you're in luck. On Saturday, August 6, \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayvintners.com/\">The East Bay Vintners Alliance\u003c/a> is hosting the 6th Annual Urban Wine Experience. Over twenty cellars will be pouring their wines along with local food purveyors serving food. Come forth and taste urban wines!

A scientist by training, she explained her wine making philosophy and answered my friends' many questions which included \"how do you spit properly\" since we were all two-wheeled designated drivers that day. Needless to say, we could have stayed at Urban Legend all day but we had other city cellars to discover. We bought a couple bottles and headed off to the farmers market a few blocks away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000894.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000894.jpg\" alt=\"Irish Monkey Cellars\" title=\"Irish Monkey Cellars\" width=\"500\" height=\"342\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30812\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Irish Monkey Cellars.

We were looking for \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/\">Irish Monkey Cellars\u003c/a> which is easy to miss as it’s located in an industrial park tucked back behind Embarcadero Cove. A banner hanging from a chain link fence gave us a clue we were near. We parked our bikes against the warehouse wall and went into the rather small, but elegant, darkened tasting room where we found the winemaker, Bob Lynch. He was quite chatty and shared the story behind the winery's name. Six years ago he and his wife Loreta coined the name \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/\">\"Irish Monkey.\"\u003c/a> Bob's background is Irish and he wields a unique sense of humor. We started out with a 2008 \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/imc110-torrontes.html\">Torrontes\u003c/a> ($12), the grapes sourced from Lodi. That was followed up with a \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/imc110-viognier.html\">Contra Costa Viognier\u003c/a> and then we moved on to their reds, many award winning. My favorite was a 2009 one hundred percent \u003ca href=\"http://www.irishmonkey.net/imc110-merlot-lovall.html\">Napa Merlot\u003c/a> ($24). I liked the diversity of varietals and local vineyards from which Irish Monkey sources. We were eager to get back into the sun so we thanked our host and headed out over the High Street Bridge to Alameda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000896.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000896.jpg\" alt=\"Riding along Alameda\" title=\"Riding along Alameda\" width=\"500\" height=\"365\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30816\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Riding along Alameda. Photo: Karen Hester\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We peddled across Alameda over to Shoreline Drive where we hung a right and rode up past \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/crown_beach\">Crown Beach\u003c/a> and the throng of sunbathers. If we were on an organized \u003ca href=\"http://eastbaywinerybiketours.com/\">East Bay winery bike tour,\u003c/a> this is where we would stop to eat our specially prepared picnic lunch. Owner Jon Zalon’s trips, and his wife's lunches, get rave reviews. But we were a motley crew, armed only with fruit bars and a curiosity for the upcoming wineries housed at the decommissioned naval air station at the tip of Alameda. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000906.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000906.jpg\" alt=\"Looking for Rock Wall Wine Company\" title=\"Looking for Rock Wall Wine Company \" width=\"500\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30819\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Looking for Rock Wall Wine Company. Photo: Karen Hester\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Rock Wall Wine Company\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIt was hard to believe we were going to find a winery somewhere in this vast old military base full of old airplane hangars, barracks and officer's clubs. But we had been finding wineries all day tucked behind chain link fences and graffiti strewn walls. We eventually found the \u003ca href=\"http://www.rockwallwineco.com/\">Rock Wall Wine Company\u003c/a> which provides production space and a tasting bar for more than a half dozen wineries. This is a top of the line tasting bar with expansive views of the Bay Bridge and two city skylines. Rock Wall has a little outdoor patio where on nice days customers can sit at tables and enjoy drinking wine accompanied by small plates cuisine. For our tasting they started us off with a Rock Wall sparkling which was one of my favorites. I also enjoyed the \u003ca href=\"http://www.rockwallwines.com/scripts/winepg.cfm/_/24/Zinfandel,%20Monte%20Rosso%20Vineyard/\">2009 Rock Wall Zinfandel Reserve\u003c/a> from Sonoma. This spicy Zin, which goes for $30 a bottle, was a gold medal winner at the California State Fair this year. Unfortunately, none of my wines included tastings of the other wineries that use the space. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000898.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/P1000898.jpg\" alt=\"Tasting at Rock Wall Wine Company\" title=\"Tasting at Rock Wall Wine Company\" width=\"500\" height=\"365\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30814\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Tasting at Rock Wall Wine Company. Photo: Karen Hester\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The celebratory mood of our Rock Wall visit was probably enhanced by the fact that it was getting later in the afternoon and we were swallowing most of our tastings now. We tried to squeeze in one more stop, \u003ca href=\"https://www.rosenblumcellars.com/about-rosenblum\">Rosenblum Cellars\u003c/a>, one of the largest wineries in the East Bay. But as we approached the winery, we heard \"all aboard\" coming from the ferry dock below. Rosenblum would have to wait for another time. On the five minute ferry ride back to Jack London Square we agreed to visit the winery one warm Sunday afternoon for their \u003ca href=\"https://www.rosenblumcellars.com/visit-alameda/events\">\"Music on the Deck\" series\u003c/a>. I did come back, the next week, to check out \u003ca href=\"http://www.dashecellars.com/\">Dasche Cellars\u003c/a> on 6th Street in the Jack London Square neighborhood. If you like bone dry wines, this urban cellar is for you. I bought a bottle of excellent \u003ca href=\"http://www.dashecellars.com/wines/Zinfandel/2008-Zinfandel-Todd-Brothers-Ranch-Old-Vines-Alexander-Valley?svin=cur\">2008 Todd Brothers Ranch Zinfandel\u003c/a> ($32). If you are curious about East Bay wines and you want to experience as many as possible in just one trip, you're in luck. On Saturday, August 6, \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayvintners.com/\">The East Bay Vintners Alliance\u003c/a> is hosting the 6th Annual Urban Wine Experience. Over twenty cellars will be pouring their wines along with local food purveyors serving food. Come forth and taste urban wines! And for those that won't be spitting, BART is just a few blocks away. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Held at \u003ca href=\"http://www.saintgregorys.org/\">St. Gregory's Church\u003c/a> in Potrero Hill, \u003ca href=\"http://newtastemarketplace.org/\">New Taste Marketplace\u003c/a> takes place once a month and features approximately 30 food vendors selling hot dishes to eat on-the-spot and artisan foods to take home. Community members and families sit on the altar and in spots all over the church listening to music and eating everything from Asian-fusion cupcakes to Thai curries and pierogis. \"Think of it like an overgrown bake sale,\" says Elianna Friedman, Market Director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Customers gain access to New Taste Marketplace by giving a small donation, which goes to \u003ca href=\"http://thefoodpantry.org/\">The Food Pantry\u003c/a> and St. Gregory's to support their efforts to provide food to San Francisco's hungry. Since its inception in November 2010, New Taste has raised over $10,000—money that goes toward a food giveaway that takes place each week at St. Gregory's. \"I love that New Taste is held in the exact space as the food pantry on Fridays,\" says Friedman. \"I hope that it adds to the sense of giving and community.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vendors that you'll find at New Taste are small and mostly only found at other similar markets around the Bay Area. On a recent visit to New Taste, I took home rabbit pate from \u003ca href=\"http://dehesafoods.com/dehesa.html\">Dehesa Foods\u003c/a>, goat cheese mozzarella from \u003ca href=\"http://www.faeriegoatmother.com/\">Faerie Goatmother\u003c/a>, kimchi from \u003ca href=\"http://monchifoods.com/\">Monchi Foods\u003c/a> and wheat pasta from \u003ca href=\"http://www.baiapasta.com/\">Baia Pasta\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The same vendors don't come every time, which creates space for new vendors,\" Friedman commented. \"Some vendors outgrow the market, and they move into something more permanent.\" Markets such as New Taste are serving as incubators for food vendors around the city. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.dandelionchocolate.com/\">Dandelion Chocolate\u003c/a> is a small \"bean-to-bar\" chocolate company based in the Mission that is about two years old. Alice Nystrom of Dandelion enjoys that the Marketplace gives Dandelion's founders a chance to interface directly with the customer. \"We always sell a lot more chocolate when we're able to tell our story,\" she says. \"Customers who come are really curious, they have a lot of questions about our chocolate and our company. They are really eager to see all these small businesses and support them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://cafemereb.com/\">Cafe Mereb\u003c/a> is one of the few brick-and-mortar businesses that participates in New Taste. It's a family-owned Mediterranean and Eritrean resturant in the Richmond that uses New Taste to market to new customers in a different part of the city, and to test new recipes. Cafe Mereb participates in New Taste every 2 months, and offers Eritrean specialties like a lamb stew called \u003cem>tibsi\u003c/em>, a slow-cooked chickpea stew called \u003cem>shurro\u003c/em> take-home items such as \u003cem>berbere\u003c/em> spices and a ghee-like spiced, clarified butter called \u003cem>tesmi\u003c/em>. Elilta Habtetsion participates in the market on behalf of her family's restaurant and sees a lot of value in participating in a market like New Taste. \"It's been very positive, and we've seen a few people stop by our cafe. It's great to talk to people one-on-one, and give our restaurant a little more exposure, and we love the venue.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For those curious about how New Taste Marketplace is allowed to exist, while the San Francisco Underground Market was \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sfweekly.com/foodie/2011/07/going_legit_part_1_with_the_un.php\">shut down last month\u003c/a> by the Health Department, the answer has to do with the fact that the New Taste Marketplace operates under the umbrella of a non-profit organization (The Food Pantry) and is a fundraising event. The \"Craven Allowance,\" the same rule that allows for bake sales, allows New Taste to operate. The Department of Health often drops by New Taste to make sure that vendors are following proper food handling rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next New Taste Marketplace is taking place this Saturday, July 16. New Taste generally takes place once a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Information\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://newtastemarketplace.org/\">New Taste Marketplace\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nSaturday, July 16\u003cbr>\nNoon - 5pm\u003cbr>\nSt. Gregory's Church\u003cbr>\n500 De Haro Street (\u003ca href=\"http://maps.google.com/maps?um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=new+taste+marketplace&fb=1&gl=us&hq=new+taste+marketplace&hnear=0x80859a6d00690021:0x4a501367f076adff,San+Francisco,+CA&ei=7wgfTvzRGpT6sAOmhYUy&sa=X&oi=local_result&ct=image&ved=0CAQQtgM&cid=0,0,17250989957028088409\">map\u003c/a>)\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/newtastemarket\">@NewTasteMarket\u003c/a> on Twitter\u003cbr>\nNew Taste on \u003ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/pages/New-Taste-Marketplace/164254100266680\">Facebook\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInterested in volunteering?

Held at \u003ca href=\"http://www.saintgregorys.org/\">St. Gregory's Church\u003c/a> in Potrero Hill, \u003ca href=\"http://newtastemarketplace.org/\">New Taste Marketplace\u003c/a> takes place once a month and features approximately 30 food vendors selling hot dishes to eat on-the-spot and artisan foods to take home. Community members and families sit on the altar and in spots all over the church listening to music and eating everything from Asian-fusion cupcakes to Thai curries and pierogis. \"Think of it like an overgrown bake sale,\" says Elianna Friedman, Market Director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Customers gain access to New Taste Marketplace by giving a small donation, which goes to \u003ca href=\"http://thefoodpantry.org/\">The Food Pantry\u003c/a> and St. Gregory's to support their efforts to provide food to San Francisco's hungry. Since its inception in November 2010, New Taste has raised over $10,000—money that goes toward a food giveaway that takes place each week at St. Gregory's. \"I love that New Taste is held in the exact space as the food pantry on Fridays,\" says Friedman. \"I hope that it adds to the sense of giving and community.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vendors that you'll find at New Taste are small and mostly only found at other similar markets around the Bay Area. On a recent visit to New Taste, I took home rabbit pate from \u003ca href=\"http://dehesafoods.com/dehesa.html\">Dehesa Foods\u003c/a>, goat cheese mozzarella from \u003ca href=\"http://www.faeriegoatmother.com/\">Faerie Goatmother\u003c/a>, kimchi from \u003ca href=\"http://monchifoods.com/\">Monchi Foods\u003c/a> and wheat pasta from \u003ca href=\"http://www.baiapasta.com/\">Baia Pasta\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The same vendors don't come every time, which creates space for new vendors,\" Friedman commented. \"Some vendors outgrow the market, and they move into something more permanent.\" Markets such as New Taste are serving as incubators for food vendors around the city. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Alice Nystrom of Dandelion enjoys that the Marketplace gives Dandelion's founders a chance to interface directly with the customer. \"We always sell a lot more chocolate when we're able to tell our story,\" she says. \"Customers who come are really curious, they have a lot of questions about our chocolate and our company. They are really eager to see all these small businesses and support them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://cafemereb.com/\">Cafe Mereb\u003c/a> is one of the few brick-and-mortar businesses that participates in New Taste. It's a family-owned Mediterranean and Eritrean resturant in the Richmond that uses New Taste to market to new customers in a different part of the city, and to test new recipes. Cafe Mereb participates in New Taste every 2 months, and offers Eritrean specialties like a lamb stew called \u003cem>tibsi\u003c/em>, a slow-cooked chickpea stew called \u003cem>shurro\u003c/em> take-home items such as \u003cem>berbere\u003c/em> spices and a ghee-like spiced, clarified butter called \u003cem>tesmi\u003c/em>. Elilta Habtetsion participates in the market on behalf of her family's restaurant and sees a lot of value in participating in a market like New Taste. \"It's been very positive, and we've seen a few people stop by our cafe. It's great to talk to people one-on-one, and give our restaurant a little more exposure, and we love the venue.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For those curious about how New Taste Marketplace is allowed to exist, while the San Francisco Underground Market was \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sfweekly.com/foodie/2011/07/going_legit_part_1_with_the_un.php\">shut down last month\u003c/a> by the Health Department, the answer has to do with the fact that the New Taste Marketplace operates under the umbrella of a non-profit organization (The Food Pantry) and is a fundraising event. The \"Craven Allowance,\" the same rule that allows for bake sales, allows New Taste to operate. The Department of Health often drops by New Taste to make sure that vendors are following proper food handling rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next New Taste Marketplace is taking place this Saturday, July 16. New Taste generally takes place once a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Information\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://newtastemarketplace.org/\">New Taste Marketplace\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nSaturday, July 16\u003cbr>\nNoon - 5pm\u003cbr>\nSt. Gregory's Church\u003cbr>\n500 De Haro Street (\u003ca href=\"http://maps.google.com/maps?um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=new+taste+marketplace&fb=1&gl=us&hq=new+taste+marketplace&hnear=0x80859a6d00690021:0x4a501367f076adff,San+Francisco,+CA&ei=7wgfTvzRGpT6sAOmhYUy&sa=X&oi=local_result&ct=image&ved=0CAQQtgM&cid=0,0,17250989957028088409\">map\u003c/a>)\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/newtastemarket\">@NewTasteMarket\u003c/a> on Twitter\u003cbr>\nNew Taste on \u003ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/pages/New-Taste-Marketplace/164254100266680\">Facebook\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInterested in volunteering?
