"bio": "My passion is exploring the connections between food, travel and culture. I am a regular contributor to AFAR, Edible East Bay Magazine, Oakland Magazine, Berkeleyside's NOSH and other publications. I usually take a route that's slightly off the beaten path, like \u003ca href=\"http://edibleeastbay.com/online-magazine/fall-harvest-2017/fun-with-food-insults/\">collecting food-related insults\u003c/a> around the world or \u003ca href=\"https://www.afar.com/magazine/what-i-learned-hawking-sweet-potatoes-with-a-street-vendor-in-taiwan?email=amindess%40aol.com&utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Doctors%20Without%20Borders&utm_term=Daily%20Wander%20Newsletter\">volunteering with a Sweet Potato Mama\u003c/a> (street food seller) in Tapei.\r\n\r\nCulture is the thread that ties together my several careers. I also work as a sign language interpreter, educator and author. My study of Deaf culture has taken me around the world, where I am always on a quest to find Deaf-owned restaurants. I love making connections between my different worlds, for example in this AFAR story where I share \u003ca href=\"https://www.afar.com/magazine/tips-from-a-sign-language-interpreter-for-overcoming-language-barriers\">tips for communicating across cultures\u003c/a> that I learned from the real experts, Deaf people. Or this \u003ca href=\"http://edibleeastbay.com/online-magazine/fall-harvest-2017/deaf-chefs-compete/\">profile of a Deaf chef and culinary arts instructor\u003c/a> at the California School for the Deaf.\r\n\r\nTo see my visual/edible take on the world, follow me on Instagram: \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/annamindess/\">annamindess. \u003c/a>\r\n\r\nFor more of my stories: visit Contently \u003ca href=\"http://annamindess.contently.com\">annamindess.contently.com\u003c/a>",

In fact, they’ve gotten worse: in their 2010 report, the Alameda County Food Bank reported that 1 in 6 members of Alameda County rely on their services. In 2014, that number was \u003ca href=\"http://www.accfb.org/1-in-5-county-residents-now-relies-on-food-bank-assistance/\" target=\"_blank\">1 in 5\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The constant economic shift is hard,” Pallana said. “We’re doing this work so our Oakland residents can have stronger, healthier communities.

And if economic forces are such that [residents are] actually being displaced out of Oakland, then all this great work that we’re doing, who is it for? Who’s going to benefit?”\u003c/p>\n\n",

"content": "\u003cp>When I used to walk into even the most elegant pastry shop and ask for something without gluten, I was lucky to be offered a “gluten-free” almond or coconut macaroon, which was cozied up in the case right next to conventional muffins, scones and cookies. The problem for the \u003ca href=\"http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/gluten-free-diet/art-20048530?_ga=1.262680523.690883551.1456637465\" target=\"_blank\">increasing number of customers who avoid gluten\u003c/a> by choice or necessity is that these treats will most likely be prepared in a kitchen which is enveloped by wheat flour: on pans, on hands and in the air. That cross-contamination is too risky for those with extreme allergies or celiac disease, because, for them, even the tiniest bit of wheat can trigger a dangerous allergic reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I have been following a g/f diet for about 15 years, due to a wheat-intolerance. In the old days, there were slim pickings: crumbly, Styrofoam-esque breads, and dry takes on token sweet treats. But oh, how things changed in the last few years! While most local markets now carry a range of g/f frozen breads and packaged cookies, even the finest frozen baked good cannot compare to fragrant, warm muffins, pastries or rolls right out of the oven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A handful of “dedicated gluten-free bakeries”—where everything is prepared in completely gluten-free kitchens—now encircle the Bay Area, so whether you live in San Francisco, the East Bay, the South Bay, Marin or the San Ramon Valley, you are not far from freshly baked moist muffins, decadent desserts, killer cupcakes or satisfying sandwich breads that you can trust are 100% gluten-free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A side benefit is that all five bakeries also cater to customers with an array of additional allergies and diet preferences, so patrons with a sensitivity to dairy, eggs, soy or nuts or those who follow vegan or Paleo diets can blissfully munch on sinfully-satisfying brownies, scones, cinnamon rolls, cupcakes, cookies, pies and breads. All five bakeries also make and decorate special-order cakes -- enabling weddings, holiday dinners and kids’ birthday parties to be accessible and enjoyable for all. (Prices vary, but generally cakes run about $35, breads from $8-$10, muffins and donuts $3-$4, cookies $1-$2.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since each bakery carries scores of sweet and savory products, I couldn’t possibly sample them all (though goodness knows I tried!) but I list a few of my favorites below. You can check out their websites for a full listing, but better yet, stop in for a visit and conduct your own tasting of gourmet gluten-free goodies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"101455,101457,101454,101452,101453,101456\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Mariposa\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>“Mariposa” is Spanish for “butterfly” and founder Patti Furey Crane picked the name because the transformation that a butterfly goes through reflects the way that “many people who adopt a gluten-free lifestyle transform their lives through food.” Her bakery is the godmother of Bay Area dedicated g/f bakeries. It’s the oldest and largest g/f bakery with two locations: Oakland’s Temescal District and San Francisco’s Ferry Building. But it all happened by accident. Crane never planned to open a bakery café at all. In 2002, after she was diagnosed with MS and researched what she could do to calm the symptoms of her autoimmune condition, she read about eliminating gluten from her diet. The few g/f products she found at the time were, she remembers, “mass-produced, bland, with a texture that wasn’t right.” Since she had baked a lot with her mother as a little girl, she set about converting some tried-and-true recipes (like biscotti and brownies) to g/f versions to sell at natural food markets. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crane started making her wholesale baked goods in a shared kitchen. When she needed more space and found the Telegraph Avenue location in 2006, it was zoned for retail. She was forced to comply by becoming a retail outlet and Crane and her husband duly installed a counter, but not much else. There was no signage and their door was a heavy, steel contraption. It’s a wonder that her customers managed to find Mariposa, but when they did, they were not shy about offering suggestions of what she should add to her line. “The business stemmed from customer cravings,” says Crane, “including me, too, since I’m a consumer and I have my own cravings.” Mariposa now produces more than 70 items and Crane is always looking to add new things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her multi-grain bread has a complex flavor/texture profile with a blend of flours, plus flax and sunflower seeds. The delightful cream-filled Penguino cupcake contains no known allergens but an intensely fudgy flavor. My family loves Mariposa’s seasonal fruit galette, a dessert elegant enough for company, with its balance of delicate crust, tangy fruit and crunch of sugar sprinkled on top. The Oakland location now has a pleasant café with plenty of seating, while the Ferry Building Bakeshop, added in 2012, is more of a to-go spot. For breakfast, try a bagel, cinnamon roll, Danish or pumpkin muffin. Lunch features a selection of pizza, sandwiches, empanadas and more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.mariposabaking.com\" target=\"_blank\">Mariposa\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n5427 Telegraph Ave., Unit 3D [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/6Ph0yk\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94609\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 595-0955\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri 9am-6pm; Sat 9am-5pm; Sun 10am-5pm\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One Ferry Building, suite 32 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/LUHQgM\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94111\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 595-0955\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sat 8am-6pm; Sun 10am-5pm\u003cbr>\n(for both locations:)\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/MariposaBaking?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Mariposa Baking Artisan Crafted Gluten Free Bakery \u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/mariposabaking\" target=\"_blank\">@MariposaBaking\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"101445,101449,101450,101448,101447,101446\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Bacano Bakery\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>As the youngest, local g/f bakery, Bacano celebrates its one-year birthday this month; its name is Spanish slang for cool, or very good. Founder Laverne Matias started selling his g/f goods three years ago at farmers' markets (he continues at Oakland’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/GrandLakeFarmersMarket\" target=\"_blank\">Grand Lake\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/temescal-farmers-market-oakland\" target=\"_blank\">Temescal\u003c/a> and San Francisco’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/clement-street-farmers-market-san-francisco\" target=\"_blank\">Clement\u003c/a>), then opened this cozy spot in Emeryville last September. Matias, who grew up in Puerto Rico, also baked at home with his mother. He moved to California in 2000 to become a lawyer after he was accepted into Hastings Law School, but changed his mind about that career path. Deciding he wanted something “more human,” he did a stint as head of HR for a large (conventional) baking company, then branched off on his own to develop some healthier recipes. He also studied existential psychology at JFK University and worked for three years as a licensed psychotherapist. But at the moment, his bakery/café is keeping him tuned in to people’s more earthly desires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Matias explains his approach: “We don’t use gluten-free flour mixes. We prefer to create unique blends of gluten-free flours to complement each item. I love ancient grains such as teff, millet, sorghum and quinoa. We also use nut flours and meals like almond, coconut and hazelnut.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bacano offers a unique bread called \"Seeds of Joy,\" which contains a complex blend of teff, sorghum and sweet rice flours sprinkled with fennel, caraway and coriander seeds. I keep it in the freezer, and toast to enjoy it with savory spreads like hummus or avocado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was wild about Bacano's \"Monkey Paradise\" muffins—essentially banana bread plus chocolate chips, walnuts and dried cherries—and found their fig scones divine. The De Young Museum serves another of my favorites at Bacano: their grain-free, cranberry date walnut bites, jewel-like orbs that burst with flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bacano’s cakes feature some unusual flavor combinations, including rosemary with coconut; and orange, almond and pistachio. Since they use all natural ingredients, the classic mauve roses with green foliage on the icing are colored with beet and spinach juice, respectively. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At lunchtime, Bacano’s café offers soups, salads, quiche, pizza and sandwiches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.bacanobakery.com\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Bacano Bakery\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1298 65\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/sJSDLO\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nEmeryville, CA 94608\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 250-9751\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sat 8am-3pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/BacanoBakery?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Bacano Bakery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"http://www.twitter.com/zestbakery\" target=\"_blank\">@BacanoBakery\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"101460,101462,101461,101464,101463,101465\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Zest Bakery\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>This family-owned bakery in San Carlos is the only one of the five that does not announce “gluten-free” on its store front, as its scalloped green awning proclaims “organic.” But once you are inside, the baked goods in the inviting cases all sport friendly “Hi, My Name is ____” labels which clearly state that every item is indeed g/f as well as often dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free etc.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cynthia Fleischer is the current manager, baker and co-owner. Zest began in 2009 when Fleisher’s brother-in-law, Patrick Luke, who has celiac disease, and his wife Charissa (Cynthia’s sister), started baking g/f creations at home. In 2010, they found this charming storefront in San Carlos and started their retail bakery. After Cynthia was laid off from Genentech, where she worked as a bio-process-technician, she jokes that she “traded one lab for another” and now develops new g/f recipes as well as baking the favorites that have been there since the beginning. One of these is Zest’s petite almond cake, a must-try fluffy cloud of marzipan.

When Katie volunteered at the summer Celiac Camp at Camp Arroyo, her sweet treats were such a big hit with the campers, that their parents encouraged her to begin making g/f birthday cakes. Katie was inspired to expand to a g/f catering business and then in 2010 opened a retail storefront, Miglet’s Cupcake shop, tucked away in the corner of Crossroads shopping center in Danville.

Their cupcakes sport a pompadour of swirled icing and sometimes a surprise in the middle. For example, the most popular variety, vanilla salted caramel cupcakes have additional caramel piped into the center. Besides the usual chocolate and lemon flavors, Miglet’s gets creative with their combinations: strawberry margarita cupcakes with key lime frosting; piña colada donuts with pineapple chunks and toasted coconut; rocky road donuts.

After discovering her own severe gluten intolerance 15 years ago, Heather Hardcastle, chef and co-owner of Flour Craft Bakery, decided to change her career as well as her diet. In 2008, she studied pastry at the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena, which naturally focused on conventional baking recipes and techniques. She then reformulated all the recipes to make them gluten-free. Her professional training is evident in the quality of her breads, pastries and desserts. Hardcastle began her g/f foray by developing a signature granola that she sold at farmers markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After a crowd-funding campaign, she and her husband opened Flour Craft Bakery in 2013. “My goal is making delicious food,” says Hardcastle. “The fact that it is gluten-free is just a bonus.” The menu of breads, brioche, muffins, cookies and cakes changes monthly. For lunch, there’s quiche, quinoa salad, lentil salad and sandwiches on housemade focaccia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I found the blackberry Earl Grey scone light and fluffy, the flourless hazelnut brownie decadent, and the marbled coffee cake with espresso glaze moist and crumbly. But the warm olive focaccia, kissed with olive oil, is one of the best things I’ve ever tasted—period. Even if you don’t have a date in Marin planned, visit Flour Craft. It’s worth the drive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://flourcraftbakery.com\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Flour Craft Bakery\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n702 San Anselmo Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/rgOQWn\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Anselmo, CA 94960\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 453-3100\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Sat 7am-4pm; Sun 8am-3pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/flourcraft?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Flour Craft Bakery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/flourcraft\" target=\"_blank\">@flourcraft\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Additional Resources:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://knowgluten.me/2013/09/13/eat-at-dedicated-gluten-free-restaurant/\" target=\"_blank\">Top Ten Reasons to Eat at a Dedicated Gluten Free Restaurant\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\n",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>When I used to walk into even the most elegant pastry shop and ask for something without gluten, I was lucky to be offered a “gluten-free” almond or coconut macaroon, which was cozied up in the case right next to conventional muffins, scones and cookies. The problem for the \u003ca href=\"http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/gluten-free-diet/art-20048530?_ga=1.262680523.690883551.1456637465\" target=\"_blank\">increasing number of customers who avoid gluten\u003c/a> by choice or necessity is that these treats will most likely be prepared in a kitchen which is enveloped by wheat flour: on pans, on hands and in the air. That cross-contamination is too risky for those with extreme allergies or celiac disease, because, for them, even the tiniest bit of wheat can trigger a dangerous allergic reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I have been following a g/f diet for about 15 years, due to a wheat-intolerance. In the old days, there were slim pickings: crumbly, Styrofoam-esque breads, and dry takes on token sweet treats. But oh, how things changed in the last few years! While most local markets now carry a range of g/f frozen breads and packaged cookies, even the finest frozen baked good cannot compare to fragrant, warm muffins, pastries or rolls right out of the oven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A handful of “dedicated gluten-free bakeries”—where everything is prepared in completely gluten-free kitchens—now encircle the Bay Area, so whether you live in San Francisco, the East Bay, the South Bay, Marin or the San Ramon Valley, you are not far from freshly baked moist muffins, decadent desserts, killer cupcakes or satisfying sandwich breads that you can trust are 100% gluten-free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A side benefit is that all five bakeries also cater to customers with an array of additional allergies and diet preferences, so patrons with a sensitivity to dairy, eggs, soy or nuts or those who follow vegan or Paleo diets can blissfully munch on sinfully-satisfying brownies, scones, cinnamon rolls, cupcakes, cookies, pies and breads. All five bakeries also make and decorate special-order cakes -- enabling weddings, holiday dinners and kids’ birthday parties to be accessible and enjoyable for all. (Prices vary, but generally cakes run about $35, breads from $8-$10, muffins and donuts $3-$4, cookies $1-$2.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since each bakery carries scores of sweet and savory products, I couldn’t possibly sample them all (though goodness knows I tried!) but I list a few of my favorites below. You can check out their websites for a full listing, but better yet, stop in for a visit and conduct your own tasting of gourmet gluten-free goodies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It’s the oldest and largest g/f bakery with two locations: Oakland’s Temescal District and San Francisco’s Ferry Building. But it all happened by accident. Crane never planned to open a bakery café at all. In 2002, after she was diagnosed with MS and researched what she could do to calm the symptoms of her autoimmune condition, she read about eliminating gluten from her diet. The few g/f products she found at the time were, she remembers, “mass-produced, bland, with a texture that wasn’t right.” Since she had baked a lot with her mother as a little girl, she set about converting some tried-and-true recipes (like biscotti and brownies) to g/f versions to sell at natural food markets. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crane started making her wholesale baked goods in a shared kitchen. When she needed more space and found the Telegraph Avenue location in 2006, it was zoned for retail. She was forced to comply by becoming a retail outlet and Crane and her husband duly installed a counter, but not much else. There was no signage and their door was a heavy, steel contraption. It’s a wonder that her customers managed to find Mariposa, but when they did, they were not shy about offering suggestions of what she should add to her line. “The business stemmed from customer cravings,” says Crane, “including me, too, since I’m a consumer and I have my own cravings.” Mariposa now produces more than 70 items and Crane is always looking to add new things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her multi-grain bread has a complex flavor/texture profile with a blend of flours, plus flax and sunflower seeds. The delightful cream-filled Penguino cupcake contains no known allergens but an intensely fudgy flavor. My family loves Mariposa’s seasonal fruit galette, a dessert elegant enough for company, with its balance of delicate crust, tangy fruit and crunch of sugar sprinkled on top. The Oakland location now has a pleasant café with plenty of seating, while the Ferry Building Bakeshop, added in 2012, is more of a to-go spot. For breakfast, try a bagel, cinnamon roll, Danish or pumpkin muffin. Lunch features a selection of pizza, sandwiches, empanadas and more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.mariposabaking.com\" target=\"_blank\">Mariposa\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n5427 Telegraph Ave., Unit 3D [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/6Ph0yk\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94609\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 595-0955\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri 9am-6pm; Sat 9am-5pm; Sun 10am-5pm\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One Ferry Building, suite 32 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/LUHQgM\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94111\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 595-0955\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sat 8am-6pm; Sun 10am-5pm\u003cbr>\n(for both locations:)\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/MariposaBaking?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Mariposa Baking Artisan Crafted Gluten Free Bakery \u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/mariposabaking\" target=\"_blank\">@MariposaBaking\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Founder Laverne Matias started selling his g/f goods three years ago at farmers' markets (he continues at Oakland’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/GrandLakeFarmersMarket\" target=\"_blank\">Grand Lake\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/temescal-farmers-market-oakland\" target=\"_blank\">Temescal\u003c/a> and San Francisco’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/clement-street-farmers-market-san-francisco\" target=\"_blank\">Clement\u003c/a>), then opened this cozy spot in Emeryville last September. Matias, who grew up in Puerto Rico, also baked at home with his mother. He moved to California in 2000 to become a lawyer after he was accepted into Hastings Law School, but changed his mind about that career path. Deciding he wanted something “more human,” he did a stint as head of HR for a large (conventional) baking company, then branched off on his own to develop some healthier recipes. He also studied existential psychology at JFK University and worked for three years as a licensed psychotherapist. But at the moment, his bakery/café is keeping him tuned in to people’s more earthly desires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Matias explains his approach: “We don’t use gluten-free flour mixes. We prefer to create unique blends of gluten-free flours to complement each item. I love ancient grains such as teff, millet, sorghum and quinoa. We also use nut flours and meals like almond, coconut and hazelnut.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bacano offers a unique bread called \"Seeds of Joy,\" which contains a complex blend of teff, sorghum and sweet rice flours sprinkled with fennel, caraway and coriander seeds. I keep it in the freezer, and toast to enjoy it with savory spreads like hummus or avocado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was wild about Bacano's \"Monkey Paradise\" muffins—essentially banana bread plus chocolate chips, walnuts and dried cherries—and found their fig scones divine. The De Young Museum serves another of my favorites at Bacano: their grain-free, cranberry date walnut bites, jewel-like orbs that burst with flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bacano’s cakes feature some unusual flavor combinations, including rosemary with coconut; and orange, almond and pistachio. Since they use all natural ingredients, the classic mauve roses with green foliage on the icing are colored with beet and spinach juice, respectively. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At lunchtime, Bacano’s café offers soups, salads, quiche, pizza and sandwiches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.bacanobakery.com\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Bacano Bakery\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1298 65\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/sJSDLO\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nEmeryville, CA 94608\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 250-9751\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sat 8am-3pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/BacanoBakery?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Bacano Bakery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"http://www.twitter.com/zestbakery\" target=\"_blank\">@BacanoBakery\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In 2010, they found this charming storefront in San Carlos and started their retail bakery. After Cynthia was laid off from Genentech, where she worked as a bio-process-technician, she jokes that she “traded one lab for another” and now develops new g/f recipes as well as baking the favorites that have been there since the beginning. One of these is Zest’s petite almond cake, a must-try fluffy cloud of marzipan.

After discovering her own severe gluten intolerance 15 years ago, Heather Hardcastle, chef and co-owner of Flour Craft Bakery, decided to change her career as well as her diet. In 2008, she studied pastry at the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena, which naturally focused on conventional baking recipes and techniques. She then reformulated all the recipes to make them gluten-free. Her professional training is evident in the quality of her breads, pastries and desserts. Hardcastle began her g/f foray by developing a signature granola that she sold at farmers markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After a crowd-funding campaign, she and her husband opened Flour Craft Bakery in 2013. “My goal is making delicious food,” says Hardcastle. “The fact that it is gluten-free is just a bonus.” The menu of breads, brioche, muffins, cookies and cakes changes monthly. For lunch, there’s quiche, quinoa salad, lentil salad and sandwiches on housemade focaccia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I found the blackberry Earl Grey scone light and fluffy, the flourless hazelnut brownie decadent, and the marbled coffee cake with espresso glaze moist and crumbly. But the warm olive focaccia, kissed with olive oil, is one of the best things I’ve ever tasted—period. Even if you don’t have a date in Marin planned, visit Flour Craft. It’s worth the drive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://flourcraftbakery.com\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Flour Craft Bakery\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n702 San Anselmo Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/rgOQWn\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Anselmo, CA 94960\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 453-3100\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Sat 7am-4pm; Sun 8am-3pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/flourcraft?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Flour Craft Bakery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/flourcraft\" target=\"_blank\">@flourcraft\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Earlier this year, the Onion ran an article titled “\u003ca href=\"http://www.theonion.com/article/restaurant-gives-totally-unwanted-twist-to-mexican-38088\" target=\"_blank\">Restaurant Gives Totally Unwanted Twist To Mexican Cuisine\u003c/a>.” The location stamp? Berkeley, California. As any Bay Area resident knows, that article was far from satire. Thanks to a combination of a diverse population and a constant quest to find the next zeitgeisty food trend, the Bay Area has an abundance of food mashups: some good, some bad, some completely misguided. From Korean tacos to Indian pizza, here’s a roundup of five of my favorites; let us know yours in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" ids=\"100737,100739,100738\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indian pizza may not be authentically Indian or Italian, but it’s definitely a Bay Area original with restaurants from Fremont to Berkeley offering Indian-influenced pies. In San Francisco, the most popular is \u003ca href=\"http://www.zantepizza.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Zante’s\u003c/a>, whose owner Dalvinder Multani is said to have have invented Indian pizza in 1986.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zante’s was closed when I made the trek out to Bernal Heights (but they do offer free delivery within San Francisco,) so I tried out newcomer Namaste Pizza in North Oakland which has been open for about six months. We tried the Tikka Masala pizza with paneer (other options included the “Tandoorilicious” or “Mango Monsoon”) and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the ingredients: thick chunks of well-spiced, bright orange chicken; creamy, salty paneer and a generous amount of tomatoes and cilantro.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The crust is the opposite of the naan-thin, blistered Italian-style popular at fancy pizza places around the bay. It's crispy, but thick and hearty enough to withstand the heavy ingredients piled on top. It seemed like there was a layer of mozzarella, whose decidedly non-Indian flavor initially seemed a little strange in conjunction with the other toppings, but ended up serving as a solid base for the piles of well seasoned toppings. Ultimately, Namaste was a success, a pleasantly decadent compromise when some people want Indian and others want pizza. Their current promotion was an added bonus: any large pizza that you pick up comes with a free order of their mint bread, a spicy and cheesy snack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.namastepizza.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Namaste Pizza\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n5942 San Pablo Avenue [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/O3B7t\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94608\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 601-1100\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon 4:00pm-10:00pm; Closed Tue; Wed-Thu 4:00pm-10:00pm; Fri-Sat 11:00am-10:30pm; Sun 11:00am-10:00pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/namastepizza\" target=\"_blank\">Namaste Pizza\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/namastepizza510\" target=\"_blank\">@NamastePizza510\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$$ Entrees ($18-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" ids=\"100734,100735,100736\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2008, Peter Yen trademarked the unique name \"Sushiritto\" and opened his first store in 2011. It was born of Yen’s simple desire: a quicker way to eat sushi. Now his concept has expanded to four official Sushiritto restaurants, with three in San Francisco and one in Palo Alto. Marrying the two seems like an odd choice at first; sushi is typically consumed in smaller quantities, appealingly minimalist in its ingredients and whether deserved or not, has a reputation as a healthier-than-most meal choice. Burritos, on the other hand, will always be overstuffed and indulgent.

What, you may ask, is there to gain by replacing one carb for another: a pile of cooked ramen noodles shaped into a bun, then lightly fried? A ramen bun doesn’t add any flavor. It doesn’t elevate a mediocre burger into something greater. It seems to mainly provide something new for your Instagram followers to gawk at.

Their speciality is ostensibly ramen, but they have an equally large collection of burgers (categorized as either “fancy” or “Asian”). There are Southern offerings (grits, cajun fries), Mexican options (quesadillas) and American specialties (patty melts, bacon cheese dogs). The ramen burger, which they proudly advertise as an “East Meets West” eating experience, was fine. The ramen bun was chewy, slightly crispy, and diligently absorbed the teriyaki sauce the burger was slathered with.

(Kogi went on to gross $2 million that first year.) The concept, the subject of many trend pieces, quickly spread to other urban areas where people like to wait in line for fashionable food: Austin, Portland, and yes, the Bay Area.

One of the most worthy versions is served at Oakland’s Belly, which specializes in unconventional fillings for tacos and burritos: steak and eggs, tempura shrimp and fried tofu.

Berkeley, California. As any Bay Area resident knows, that article was far from satire. Thanks to a combination of a diverse population and a constant quest to find the next zeitgeisty food trend, the Bay Area has an abundance of food mashups: some good, some bad, some completely misguided. From Korean tacos to Indian pizza, here’s a roundup of five of my favorites; let us know yours in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In San Francisco, the most popular is \u003ca href=\"http://www.zantepizza.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Zante’s\u003c/a>, whose owner Dalvinder Multani is said to have have invented Indian pizza in 1986.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zante’s was closed when I made the trek out to Bernal Heights (but they do offer free delivery within San Francisco,) so I tried out newcomer Namaste Pizza in North Oakland which has been open for about six months. We tried the Tikka Masala pizza with paneer (other options included the “Tandoorilicious” or “Mango Monsoon”) and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the ingredients: thick chunks of well-spiced, bright orange chicken; creamy, salty paneer and a generous amount of tomatoes and cilantro.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The crust is the opposite of the naan-thin, blistered Italian-style popular at fancy pizza places around the bay. It's crispy, but thick and hearty enough to withstand the heavy ingredients piled on top. It seemed like there was a layer of mozzarella, whose decidedly non-Indian flavor initially seemed a little strange in conjunction with the other toppings, but ended up serving as a solid base for the piles of well seasoned toppings. Ultimately, Namaste was a success, a pleasantly decadent compromise when some people want Indian and others want pizza.

(Kogi went on to gross $2 million that first year.) The concept, the subject of many trend pieces, quickly spread to other urban areas where people like to wait in line for fashionable food: Austin, Portland, and yes, the Bay Area. There's \u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=korean+taco&find_loc=San+Francisco%2C+CA\" target=\"_blank\">a few local spots\u003c/a> serving up the Easternized tacos, which typically feature pork belly, bulgogi-like steak and lots of kimchi. One of the most worthy versions is served at Oakland’s Belly, which specializes in unconventional fillings for tacos and burritos: steak and eggs, tempura shrimp and fried tofu. (They’re also one of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/oakland/the-search-for-a-california-burrito-leads-to-an-office-park-in-alameda/Content?oid=4489243\" target=\"_blank\">few places \u003c/a>in the Bay Area where you can get a riceless and fry-stuffed “Cali Burrito.”) Their Belly taco features incredibly tender beef marinated in \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirin\" target=\"_blank\">mirin\u003c/a>, soy sauce and a selection of spices. Rice adds bulk and heft, a “Korean slaw” adds crunch, but a bright orange kimchi aioli adds only the mildest fermented kick--I wish it had more distinctive kimchi funk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Whole animal butchery has gotten popular in recent years as part of our growing attention to what constitutes sustainable food systems. That has prompted a spate of new butcher shops, but running a butchery isn't easy -- as evidenced by the fact that the popular \u003ca href=\"http://4505meats.com/\" target=\"_blank\">4505 Meats\u003c/a> had to close its butchery doors earlier this summer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, you can still buy 4505 wholesale sausages or sandwiches at the farmers' market. And yes, Belcampo did take over the butcher shop location. But that doesn't mean it's easy to ensure the kind of high-quality, locally-sourced, sustainable meat we all love at prices we can actually afford -- and that the shops can afford to sell it at.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It can all get a little confusing. Some places outsource to their favorite ranches. Others operate the farms themselves. Some focus on pasture-raised meat. Others want hormone-free products. If you're not sure what to eat for dinner, then start with some of our favorite butcher shops. If we missed your favorite, then share it in the comments below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"100151,100152,100153,100156,100154,100155,100157\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since 1901, there's been a butcher shop at 235 Cortland Avenue in Bernal Heights. For the last eight years that shop's been \u003cstrong>Avedano's Meats\u003c/strong>. It's owned by three women who were planning to open a restaurant, but instead wanted to bring fresh local meat directly to the community. The focus is on pasture-raised meat from small farms, and the shop has relationships with specific farmers for each of its animals -- for example, Avedano's pork comes from \u003ca href=\"http://llanoseco.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Llano Seco Rancho\u003c/a> in Chico. They work with whole animals, which are delivered weekly, and they also make pastrami, pates, and sausages. (There are even some dog treats. After all, the \u003cem>whole\u003c/em> animal has to get used somehow.) You can reserve special orders or buy a meat box. The shop has also started doing butcher's dinners in the private dining room next door. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://avedanos.com/newSite/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Avedano's Meats\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n235 Cortland Avenue [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/heCpYf\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94110\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 285-6328\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri 11am-8pm; Sat 9am-8pm; Sun 11am-6pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Avedanos-Holly-Park-Market/361391073012\" target=\"_blank\">Avedano's Holly Park Market\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/avedanos\" target=\"_blank\">@Avedanos\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/avedanos/\" target=\"_blank\">Avedanos\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"100160,100165,100161,100162,100163,100164,100166\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Belcampo Meat Co.\u003c/strong> has burst onto the scene in the last few years with seven restaurants/butcheries in California -- and four are in the Bay Area. The whole enterprise started in 2012 with an idea for a top-to-bottom meat provider. All the animals served in Belcampo come from the company's own farm near Mt. Shasta, where the rabbits, quail, chickens, and cows live in humane conditions. The farm-to-fork traceability means that Belcampo also owns and operates its own slaughterhouse 15 minutes away from its farm and runs the butcher shops where the meat is hand-cut. At most locations, you can buy fresh cuts of meat in the front and lunch or dinner at the restaurant in the back. Because Belcampo uses so many non-traditional cuts and focuses on freshness, you might need to ask the butcher or the waiter about what's best and what's in stock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.belcampomeatco.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Belcampo Meat Co.\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2405 Larkspur Landing Circle, Building 4 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/2zRMX1\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nLarkspur, CA 94939\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 488-5810\u003cbr>\nHours: Butchery - Mon-Sat 9am-7pm; Sun 9am-6pm / Restaurant - Daily 11am-9pm, Closed 4pm-5pm\u003cbr>\n1909 Mission Street [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/hq31lO\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94103\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 914-0637\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri 11am-8pm; Sat-Sun 10am-7pm\u003cbr>\n1998 Polk Street [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/QGUBh3\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94109\u003cbr>\nPh:(415) 660-5573\u003cbr>\nHours: Butchery - Daily 10am-8pm / Restaurant - Mon-Thu 11:30am-10pm; Fri 11:30am-11pm; Sat 10:30am-11pm; Sun 10:30am-9pm, Closed Daily 3pm-5:30pm\u003cbr>\n855 El Camino Real, #161 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/X7cUKY\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nPalo Alto, CA 94301\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 561-3492\u003cbr>\nHours: Butchery - Mon-Sat 10am-7pm; Sun 10am-6pm / Restaurant - Mon-Sat 11am-8pm; Sun 11am-7pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/belcampomeatco\" target=\"_blank\">Bel Campo Meat Co.\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/BelcampoMeat\" target=\"_blank\">@BelcampoMeat\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/belcampomeatco/\" target=\"_blank\">Belcampo Meat Co\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"100167,100171,100168,100169,100172,100170\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though most people refer to it just as \u003cstrong>Boccalone\u003c/strong>, the full name is Boccalone Salumeria, which tells you exactly what you need to know about this little shop.

Olivier's has been open since 2011 in an unassuming street in the Dogpatch neighborhood that's right by the water. Olivier still hand-picks all the animals to be served up in his shop and visits each of the ranches he works with every week. Because French traditional cuts (and old-fashioned hand tools) are part of Olivier's staple, there are often some uniquely European specialties available in the wide open fridges. While much of the meat that comes through is beef, Olivier's also makes unique spiced sausages and serves up pork, lamb, and even veal at times. Order ahead for the super-aged beef, which is aged for 100, 165 or even over 200 days -- and sells out well in advance. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://oliviersbutchery.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Olivier's Butchery\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1074 Illinois Street [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/IlIsHf\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94107\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 558-9887\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Fri 11am-7pm; Sat 10am-6pm; Sun 10am-5pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Oliviers-Butchery-215945865096594/timeline/\" target=\"_blank\">Olivier's Butchery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/frenchbutchery?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\">@frenchbutchery\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/frenchbutchery/\" target=\"_blank\">FrenchButchery\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"100211,100216,100214,100212,100213,100215,100217\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prather Ranch is exactly what it sounds like: \u003ca href=\"http://www.pratherranch.com/\" target=\"_blank\">a ranch.\u003c/a> Located up near Mt.

That has prompted a spate of new butcher shops, but running a butchery isn't easy -- as evidenced by the fact that the popular \u003ca href=\"http://4505meats.com/\" target=\"_blank\">4505 Meats\u003c/a> had to close its butchery doors earlier this summer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, you can still buy 4505 wholesale sausages or sandwiches at the farmers' market. And yes, Belcampo did take over the butcher shop location. But that doesn't mean it's easy to ensure the kind of high-quality, locally-sourced, sustainable meat we all love at prices we can actually afford -- and that the shops can afford to sell it at.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It can all get a little confusing. Some places outsource to their favorite ranches. Others operate the farms themselves. Some focus on pasture-raised meat. Others want hormone-free products. If you're not sure what to eat for dinner, then start with some of our favorite butcher shops. If we missed your favorite, then share it in the comments below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For the last eight years that shop's been \u003cstrong>Avedano's Meats\u003c/strong>. It's owned by three women who were planning to open a restaurant, but instead wanted to bring fresh local meat directly to the community. The focus is on pasture-raised meat from small farms, and the shop has relationships with specific farmers for each of its animals -- for example, Avedano's pork comes from \u003ca href=\"http://llanoseco.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Llano Seco Rancho\u003c/a> in Chico. They work with whole animals, which are delivered weekly, and they also make pastrami, pates, and sausages. (There are even some dog treats. After all, the \u003cem>whole\u003c/em> animal has to get used somehow.) You can reserve special orders or buy a meat box. The shop has also started doing butcher's dinners in the private dining room next door. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The whole enterprise started in 2012 with an idea for a top-to-bottom meat provider. All the animals served in Belcampo come from the company's own farm near Mt. Shasta, where the rabbits, quail, chickens, and cows live in humane conditions. The farm-to-fork traceability means that Belcampo also owns and operates its own slaughterhouse 15 minutes away from its farm and runs the butcher shops where the meat is hand-cut. At most locations, you can buy fresh cuts of meat in the front and lunch or dinner at the restaurant in the back. Because Belcampo uses so many non-traditional cuts and focuses on freshness, you might need to ask the butcher or the waiter about what's best and what's in stock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.belcampomeatco.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Belcampo Meat Co.\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2405 Larkspur Landing Circle, Building 4 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/2zRMX1\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nLarkspur, CA 94939\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 488-5810\u003cbr>\nHours: Butchery - Mon-Sat 9am-7pm; Sun 9am-6pm / Restaurant - Daily 11am-9pm, Closed 4pm-5pm\u003cbr>\n1909 Mission Street [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/hq31lO\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94103\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 914-0637\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri 11am-8pm; Sat-Sun 10am-7pm\u003cbr>\n1998 Polk Street [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/QGUBh3\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94109\u003cbr>\nPh:(415) 660-5573\u003cbr>\nHours: Butchery - Daily 10am-8pm / Restaurant - Mon-Thu 11:30am-10pm; Fri 11:30am-11pm; Sat 10:30am-11pm; Sun 10:30am-9pm, Closed Daily 3pm-5:30pm\u003cbr>\n855 El Camino Real, #161 [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/X7cUKY\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nPalo Alto, CA 94301\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 561-3492\u003cbr>\nHours: Butchery - Mon-Sat 10am-7pm; Sun 10am-6pm / Restaurant - Mon-Sat 11am-8pm; Sun 11am-7pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/belcampomeatco\" target=\"_blank\">Bel Campo Meat Co.\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/BelcampoMeat\" target=\"_blank\">@BelcampoMeat\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/belcampomeatco/\" target=\"_blank\">Belcampo Meat Co\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Take a butchery class at the Napa store or a enjoy Butcher's Happy Hour (Wednesdays in San Francisco or Thursdays in Napa), where you can snack while enjoying a first-hand butchery demonstration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.fattedcalf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Fatted Calf\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n320 Fell Street [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/YuwsBm\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco, CA 94102\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 400-5614\u003cbr>\nHours: Daily 10am-8pm\u003cbr>\n644 First Street (at the Oxbow Public Market) [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/Sh1YtA\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nNapa, CA 94559\u003cbr>\nPh: (707) 256-3684\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sat 9am-7pm; Sun 10am-6pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/FattedCalf\" target=\"_blank\">Fatted Calf\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/FattedCalf?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor\" target=\"_blank\">@FattedCalf\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

(You can even read \u003ca href=\"http://thelocalbutchershop.com/our-farmers/\" target=\"_blank\">about the farmers on the butchery's website\u003c/a>.)

The Local Butcher Shop sources pasture-raised, hormone-free whole animals which allows the shop's butchers to cut creative pieces of premium meat. They also make pates, sausages, stocks, and dog food; you'll also want to try the sandwich of the day. All the butchers are trained chefs as well and can answer questions.

Olivier's has been open since 2011 in an unassuming street in the Dogpatch neighborhood that's right by the water.
