Originally from North Carolina, she moved to Berkeley in 2006 to pursue the California dream, which, it turns out, is all it’s cracked up to be. She’s a farmers' market junkie, a lover of all things tomato, and Champagne-obsessed. She loves to cook with her kids, eight and three, and she makes frequent pilgrimages to International Boulevard in search of her next favorite Mexican dish. She spends an inordinate amount of time thinking about food and wine pairing, often starting with the wine and working backwards when planning menus. She is a Level I Sommelier and a Licensed Q-Grader. Her work has appeared in KQED's Bay Area Bites, Forbes.com, the New York Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, Tasting Table, Fodor’s Travel Guides, and lots of other publications.

Around the same time, Jeff married his journalism degree to his appreciation for the restaurant world and determined food writing would be his career path. In his work Jeff most enjoys profiling chefs and learning their background, finding a new favorite restaurant and sharing his experiences with others through his reviews and social media.

If you can't read Chinese, pick from a picture menu with simple English titles. Steamed Shanghai dumplings arrive in wooden baskets and the steamed pork buns are delicious.

The Dungeness crab dumplings are a fresh Bay Area take on the standard -- actually all the seafood comes recommended -- and finish off with the fried sweet durian custard-filled pastry puffs.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://asianpearl.yolasite.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Asian Pearl Seafood Restaurant\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>: The motto here is: \"culinary wonderland.\" And that's exactly what this Richmond restaurant is. You can order dim sum everyday and at all hours -- along with Hong Kong style meals. You'll want to try the soft baked BBQ pork buns, the fried turnip cakes, and steamed scallop and shrimp dumplings.

On the weekends you might have to wait a half-hour or longer, but once you're sitting simply pluck from the nearest cart that comes by. Servers push around steamed baskets of buns or spoon dishes like sauteed green beans directly from hot clay pots. For dessert, try the baked sweet buns with a coconut-honey filling.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://koipalace.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Koi Palace\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>: Koi Palace has three locations, but the Daly City restaurant is perhaps the most well-known for its 20 years of dishing out dim sum. The wait can be \u003cem>long\u003c/em> on weekends, but the giant and extravagant space has a koi pond and live seafood tanks for you to admire. The Shanghai steamed dumpling sampler gives you a variety of dumplings to try, from beets to black truffles. And the seafood versions include rare abalone. Dim sum is served only for lunch.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.myoceandelight.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Ocean Delight\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>: It can be a long drive for city-goers making their way down to San Jose, but once you're there you'll find a bustling (but not overcrowded) dim sum favorite. Seafood is the specialty here: pan-fried chive and shrimp dumplings, steamed shrimp and crab dumplings, shrimp stuffed mushrooms, and fried shrimp stuffed eggplant.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The phrase includes such a huge variety of cuisine that \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/03/magazine/mag-03YouRHere-t.html\" target=\"_blank\">some argue \u003c/a>there’s no such thing as authentic Mediterranean food. Yet in the US, the term has become shorthand for a simple, healthful style of cooking, something that’s heavy on fresh vegetables, fish and lamb and probably contains a vat of olive oil. In the Bay Area, we’re lucky to have a wealth of options for this kind of Mediterranean food, from high-end restaurants to hole-in-the-wall cafes. Here are some of our favorites in the East Bay--if we left yours out, let us know in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Wally’s Cafe\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113692\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113692\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104.jpg\" alt=\"A lamb and beef gyro (plus free soup) at Wally's Cafe.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A lamb and beef gyro (plus free soup) at Wally's Cafe. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Emeryville’s 40th and San Pablo shopping center has nearly everything you could ever need--from shimmery eyeshadows at Ulta to a power saw at Home Depot--but it lacks non-chain eateries. Luckily, there’s \u003cstrong>Wally’s Cafe\u003c/strong>, tucked off San Pablo and attached to the divey Bank Club bar. Once you find the place, you’ll be rewarded by a menu of standard Mediterranean dishes with an emphasis on Lebanese food from owner Wally Matar, who knows how to make diners feel welcome: every meal starts with a free bowl of flavorful lentil soup. A lamb and beef gyro was a departure from the typical shaven-kebab style and featured marinated beef and lamb formed into patties, then crisped. The well-seasoned meat was topped with tzatziki, a shower of herbs, crunchy lettuce, and sumac-y onions. The bread is considerately thick to help keep it from degrading, but it’s still messy, requiring neck contortions to keep it from falling apart. At the end of your meal, there’s another gracious touch: a free piece of delicate, flaky, not-too-sweet Lebanese baklava. Is it any wonder why nearby Pixar employees love the place so much they allegedly decided to immortalize it in 2008’s \u003cem>WALL-E\u003c/em>? (A poster of which hangs in the restaurant, proudly bearing Matar’s name tag from his visit to the studio) Bring cash, and prepare for a wait if you go at lunch time: on a recent weekday, the restaurant and its outdoor area were packed with a crowd that ranged from office workers describing their new favorite podcast to a couple debating whether or not it’s dangerous to crack your joints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.wallysemeryville.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Wally's Cafe\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n3900 San Pablo Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/H3jwh1gv8io\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nEmeryville, CA 94608\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 597-1303\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sat, 11am-10pm; Closed Sunday\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/WallysCafe/\" target=\"_blank\">Wally's Cafe\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$ (Entrees $11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>La Méditerranée\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113695\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113695\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0058-e1479516443530.jpg\" alt=\"A lunch special Middle Eastern Plate from La Mediterranée.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A lunch special Middle Eastern Plate from La Mediterranée. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Charming neighborhood spot \u003cstrong>La Méditerranée\u003c/strong>, with locations in San Francisco and Berkeley, has been a Bay Area standby since 1979, when owners Levon Der Bedrossian and Garbis Baghdassarian opened the first one on Fillmore. The reason for their longevity--as evidenced by the doorway, its length covered with Zagat, Yelp and TripAdvisor recommendation stickers--is straightforward: delicious, simple, food prepared well and at a good price. There are other pros: a huge seating area, easily able to accommodate a \u003cem>Friends\u003c/em>-sized group of amigos; heating lamps outside for when the weather isn’t Mediterranean-esque temperate; and smiling, efficient service. Yet another boon is the long lunch special, which goes until 4 PM and includes some of their star dishes for a few bucks less. If you’re new to the restaurant, get the Middle Eastern plate, which comes with a dizzying amount of options: a rich, sumac-spiked levant sandwich; a sweetly fragrant chunk of Chicken Cilicia; a towering, flaky spinach and feta roll similar to Spanakopita; and a bowl of soup (a piquant bowl of lemon chicken on my visit). In case that wasn’t enough, you also get cheese, fruit, pita, and a sizable dollop of hummus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cafelamed.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>La Méditerranée\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2936 College Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/xgJUcoSXzbw\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94705\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 540-7773\u003cbr>\nHours: Sun-Thu, 10am-9:30pm 5-10pm; Fri-Sat, 10am-10:30pm.\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cafe-La-Mediterranee-Berkeley/285135371609495\" target=\"_blank\">Cafe La Mediterranee Berkeley\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$ (Entrees $11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Rojbas Mediterranean Grill\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113689\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113689\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069.jpg\" alt=\"A spicy Adana Kebab from Rojbas Grill.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A spicy Adana Kebab from Rojbas Grill. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Downtown Berkeley’s \u003cstrong>Rojbas Grill\u003c/strong> is a respite from University Ave’s activity, a peaceful place with buttercup yellow walls to get an affordable, delicious meal. Owner Emin Tekin’s salads are from the 90s (goat cheese and beet, spinach and blue cheese) but his menu is decidedly Mediterranean, with a focus on Kurdish dishes like Adana-style lamb and a mast o sir yogurt dip. The Adana kebab was an antidote for anyone who's experienced tough, rubbery lamb. It was rich and succulent, with an enlivening but not overpowering level of heat. The food is lovingly, almost painstakingly prepared by a single kitchen worker, leaving you time to ponder the efficacy of a nearby \"Mein Trumpf\" sign, or to simply be hypnotized by the slowly rotating column of meat on a spit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.rojbasgrill.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Rojbas Mediterranean Grill\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1901 University Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/yc2TTuug1zS2\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94704\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 679-5205\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sun, 11am-10pm.\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $ (Entrees $10 and under)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Zaytoon Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113690\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113690\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081.jpg\" alt=\"Mansaf from Zaytoon.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0081-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mansaf from Zaytoon. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area has no shortage of low-to-medium priced options for quick, cheap Mediterranean meals. But what if you want something a little more upscale? Albany’s \u003cstrong>Zaytoon\u003c/strong>, which owner Izat Eliyan opened this year, aims to fill that gap. The decor is casually elegant--subdued teal leather booths, artistic light fixtures--and the menu follows suit, with a thoughtfully varied menu that emphasizes sourcing (most of the meats are local). While many dishes are familiar--kebabs abound--there are some rarer-seen options like mansaf, Jordan’s national dish. It’s a tower of incredibly tender braised lamb on top of lavash and yogurt. As you eat, the soggy bread collapses into a delicious mush, thanks to the tangy yogurt, with slivered nuts adding crunch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/zaytoon-mediterranean-restaurant-and-bar-albany-2\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Zaytoon Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1133 Solano Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/q5wxQBz3Zox\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nAlbany, CA 94706\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 898-1316\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Sun, 11:30am-9:30pm; Closed Monday.\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$$ (Entrees $18-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Kebab Express\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113691\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113691\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083.jpg\" alt=\"Chicken and rice at Kebab Express.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0083-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chicken and rice at Kebab Express. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Should you find yourself starving in San Pablo--whether you’re stuck in traffic on the 80 or just trying to fill up before a long night of gambling at Lytton Springs--park yourself in a nondescript shopping center for distinctive, excellent Mediterranean food. \u003cstrong>Kebab Express\u003c/strong> (located next to charmingly named taqueria-slash-pizzeria Americana Restaurant) offers a halal menu of traditional gyros, but don’t miss their simple chicken and rice dishes, usually prepared by owner Farid Mohsini.

The phrase includes such a huge variety of cuisine that \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/03/magazine/mag-03YouRHere-t.html\" target=\"_blank\">some argue \u003c/a>there’s no such thing as authentic Mediterranean food. Yet in the US, the term has become shorthand for a simple, healthful style of cooking, something that’s heavy on fresh vegetables, fish and lamb and probably contains a vat of olive oil. In the Bay Area, we’re lucky to have a wealth of options for this kind of Mediterranean food, from high-end restaurants to hole-in-the-wall cafes. Here are some of our favorites in the East Bay--if we left yours out, let us know in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Wally’s Cafe\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113692\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113692\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104.jpg\" alt=\"A lamb and beef gyro (plus free soup) at Wally's Cafe.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0104-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A lamb and beef gyro (plus free soup) at Wally's Cafe. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Emeryville’s 40th and San Pablo shopping center has nearly everything you could ever need--from shimmery eyeshadows at Ulta to a power saw at Home Depot--but it lacks non-chain eateries. Luckily, there’s \u003cstrong>Wally’s Cafe\u003c/strong>, tucked off San Pablo and attached to the divey Bank Club bar. Once you find the place, you’ll be rewarded by a menu of standard Mediterranean dishes with an emphasis on Lebanese food from owner Wally Matar, who knows how to make diners feel welcome: every meal starts with a free bowl of flavorful lentil soup. A lamb and beef gyro was a departure from the typical shaven-kebab style and featured marinated beef and lamb formed into patties, then crisped. The well-seasoned meat was topped with tzatziki, a shower of herbs, crunchy lettuce, and sumac-y onions. The bread is considerately thick to help keep it from degrading, but it’s still messy, requiring neck contortions to keep it from falling apart. At the end of your meal, there’s another gracious touch: a free piece of delicate, flaky, not-too-sweet Lebanese baklava. Is it any wonder why nearby Pixar employees love the place so much they allegedly decided to immortalize it in 2008’s \u003cem>WALL-E\u003c/em>? (A poster of which hangs in the restaurant, proudly bearing Matar’s name tag from his visit to the studio) Bring cash, and prepare for a wait if you go at lunch time: on a recent weekday, the restaurant and its outdoor area were packed with a crowd that ranged from office workers describing their new favorite podcast to a couple debating whether or not it’s dangerous to crack your joints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.wallysemeryville.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Wally's Cafe\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n3900 San Pablo Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/H3jwh1gv8io\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nEmeryville, CA 94608\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 597-1303\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sat, 11am-10pm; Closed Sunday\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/WallysCafe/\" target=\"_blank\">Wally's Cafe\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$ (Entrees $11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>La Méditerranée\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113695\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113695\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0058-e1479516443530.jpg\" alt=\"A lunch special Middle Eastern Plate from La Mediterranée.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A lunch special Middle Eastern Plate from La Mediterranée. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Charming neighborhood spot \u003cstrong>La Méditerranée\u003c/strong>, with locations in San Francisco and Berkeley, has been a Bay Area standby since 1979, when owners Levon Der Bedrossian and Garbis Baghdassarian opened the first one on Fillmore. The reason for their longevity--as evidenced by the doorway, its length covered with Zagat, Yelp and TripAdvisor recommendation stickers--is straightforward: delicious, simple, food prepared well and at a good price. There are other pros: a huge seating area, easily able to accommodate a \u003cem>Friends\u003c/em>-sized group of amigos; heating lamps outside for when the weather isn’t Mediterranean-esque temperate; and smiling, efficient service. Yet another boon is the long lunch special, which goes until 4 PM and includes some of their star dishes for a few bucks less. If you’re new to the restaurant, get the Middle Eastern plate, which comes with a dizzying amount of options: a rich, sumac-spiked levant sandwich; a sweetly fragrant chunk of Chicken Cilicia; a towering, flaky spinach and feta roll similar to Spanakopita; and a bowl of soup (a piquant bowl of lemon chicken on my visit). In case that wasn’t enough, you also get cheese, fruit, pita, and a sizable dollop of hummus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cafelamed.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>La Méditerranée\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2936 College Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/xgJUcoSXzbw\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94705\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 540-7773\u003cbr>\nHours: Sun-Thu, 10am-9:30pm 5-10pm; Fri-Sat, 10am-10:30pm.\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cafe-La-Mediterranee-Berkeley/285135371609495\" target=\"_blank\">Cafe La Mediterranee Berkeley\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice range: $$ (Entrees $11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Rojbas Mediterranean Grill\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113689\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113689\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069.jpg\" alt=\"A spicy Adana Kebab from Rojbas Grill.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/IMG_0069-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A spicy Adana Kebab from Rojbas Grill. \u003ccite>(Shelby Pope)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Downtown Berkeley’s \u003cstrong>Rojbas Grill\u003c/strong> is a respite from University Ave’s activity, a peaceful place with buttercup yellow walls to get an affordable, delicious meal. Owner Emin Tekin’s salads are from the 90s (goat cheese and beet, spinach and blue cheese) but his menu is decidedly Mediterranean, with a focus on Kurdish dishes like Adana-style lamb and a mast o sir yogurt dip. The Adana kebab was an antidote for anyone who's experienced tough, rubbery lamb. It was rich and succulent, with an enlivening but not overpowering level of heat. The food is lovingly, almost painstakingly prepared by a single kitchen worker, leaving you time to ponder the efficacy of a nearby \"Mein Trumpf\" sign, or to simply be hypnotized by the slowly rotating column of meat on a spit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Choose your spice level wisely (when they say spicy, they mean it), but the green sauce it comes with, a zingy yogurt and cilantro jalapeno affair, adds a tempering burst of freshness. Portions are gigantic, so prepare to stay a while: grab some plastic cutlery and settle in to watch the TV in the corner (playing \u003cem>NCIS\u003c/em> on my visit) and enjoy your mountain of food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Or try the cornbread benedict and the Dutch pancakes, topped with apples, ricotta, or bacon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113314\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 550px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/craftsmanandwolves.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113314\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/craftsmanandwolves.jpg\" alt=\"The Rebel Within muffin at Craftsman and Wolves.\" width=\"550\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/craftsmanandwolves.jpg 550w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/craftsmanandwolves-160x128.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/craftsmanandwolves-240x192.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/craftsmanandwolves-375x300.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/craftsmanandwolves-520x416.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Rebel Within muffin at Craftsman and Wolves. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Craftsman and Wolves)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.craftsman-wolves.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Craftsman and Wolves\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>746 Valencia St. [\u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Craftsman+and+Wolves/@37.7609039,-122.4217469,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xa60125d472a41c83!8m2!3d37.7609039!4d-122.4217469\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nPh: (415) 913-7713\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Thurs, 7am-6pm; Fri, 7am-7pm; Sat, 8am-7pm; Sun, 8am-6pm\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Craftsman and Wolves is a bakery, but it's so much more than a bakery.

Don’t be daunted if there’s a long line; it moves quickly. Cosecha’s green pozole is a light, bright chicken (instead of pork) version, redolent of tomatillo and mild green chiles, kicked up a bit by diced jalapeño and made even lusher by avocado. The steaming, generous bowl is served with cabbage, radishes, onion, lime and cilantro, and to-die-for homemade corn tortillas.

While both versions are excellent, the red takes the prize for its depth of chile flavor. It’s not spicy, but the slightly sweet, slightly smoky infusion, combined with flavor-saturated pork broth and big chunks of fatty pork is spot on, served simply with red and white cabbage, lime and a stack of crispy tostadas. Pozole is only available Saturdays and Sundays, until it sells out. And it always does.

Nonetheless, prices remain competitively low. For under $10, you can choose red, green or white pozole. I found the white fairly bland, and the red was above average, but the green was downright spectacular, with slightly spicy green chile and pork broth, loads of al dente hominy, and crisp, finely chopped vegetable garnishes (the usual onions, cabbage and radishes), with lots of lime, too. A plus is the addictive salsa—and the fact that pozole is on the menu every day (except Sunday, when the restaurant is closed).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.obeliscorestaurant.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Obelisco\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n3411 E. 12th St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/pPG5yK\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94601\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 534-3752\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri, 10am-9pm; Sat, 10am-8pm; closed Sunday\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Obelisco-Restaurant/569449659829161\" target=\"_blank\">Obelisco Restaurant\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/obeliscooakland/\" target=\"_blank\">obeliscooakland\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $ (pozole, $9.95)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Otaez\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113294\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113294\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new.jpg\" alt=\"A huge bowl of red pozole at Otaez.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A huge bowl of red pozole at Otaez. \u003ccite>(Kim Westerman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Otaez is a longstanding favorite on International Boulevard, beloved for its weekend mariarchi bands and hangover soups. While pozole might well fall into that category, this version is more of a spicy protein shot to the brain. A warning if you’re feeding kids: The bowl is full of bones, evidence that the stock has been properly made, but something to be aware of as you make your way through the huge serving. It’s also got pig parts that don’t always turn up in pozole recipes, including tripe on my recent visit, which lent the whole a bold richness. The chunks of stew meat are soft and marbled, and the abundant garnishes should be placed on in layers (i.e., save some for the inevitable leftovers). The portion is enough for three to share.

I’m happy I took the drive to 23rd Street in Richmond, where this friendly spot does a brisk business. Locals who chat up the servers by name line up for carefully prepared Mexican dishes, including pozole, at this family –run restaurant. Red pozole is served with the classic garnishes, and it might be my favorite version I tried, simply by virtue of its spiciness. Slightly more confident in its chile presentation that the others, but still in the medium heat range, it’s a soup perfectly balanced between meaty depth and bright chile flavor. And pozole is not just a weekend thrill— it’s on the menu every day (except Monday, when the restaurant is closed).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/portumex-richmond\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Portumex\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n721 23rd St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/7JfFav\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nRichmond, CA 94801\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 237-7513\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Fri, 10am-8pm; Sat, 8am-8pm; Sun, 8am-6pm; closed Monday\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $ (pozole, $10)\u003c/p>\n\n",

The chile base can be red or green, and there’s even a white version with a chile-free broth.

Cosecha’s green pozole is a light, bright chicken (instead of pork) version, redolent of tomatillo and mild green chiles, kicked up a bit by diced jalapeño and made even lusher by avocado. The steaming, generous bowl is served with cabbage, radishes, onion, lime and cilantro, and to-die-for homemade corn tortillas.

It’s not spicy, but the slightly sweet, slightly smoky infusion, combined with flavor-saturated pork broth and big chunks of fatty pork is spot on, served simply with red and white cabbage, lime and a stack of crispy tostadas. Pozole is only available Saturdays and Sundays, until it sells out. And it always does. Get there by early afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Nonetheless, prices remain competitively low. For under $10, you can choose red, green or white pozole. I found the white fairly bland, and the red was above average, but the green was downright spectacular, with slightly spicy green chile and pork broth, loads of al dente hominy, and crisp, finely chopped vegetable garnishes (the usual onions, cabbage and radishes), with lots of lime, too. A plus is the addictive salsa—and the fact that pozole is on the menu every day (except Sunday, when the restaurant is closed).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.obeliscorestaurant.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Obelisco\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n3411 E. 12th St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/pPG5yK\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94601\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 534-3752\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Fri, 10am-9pm; Sat, 10am-8pm; closed Sunday\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Obelisco-Restaurant/569449659829161\" target=\"_blank\">Obelisco Restaurant\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/obeliscooakland/\" target=\"_blank\">obeliscooakland\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $ (pozole, $9.95)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Otaez\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113294\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-113294\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new.jpg\" alt=\"A huge bowl of red pozole at Otaez.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Otaez-new-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A huge bowl of red pozole at Otaez. \u003ccite>(Kim Westerman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Otaez is a longstanding favorite on International Boulevard, beloved for its weekend mariarchi bands and hangover soups. While pozole might well fall into that category, this version is more of a spicy protein shot to the brain. A warning if you’re feeding kids: The bowl is full of bones, evidence that the stock has been properly made, but something to be aware of as you make your way through the huge serving. It’s also got pig parts that don’t always turn up in pozole recipes, including tripe on my recent visit, which lent the whole a bold richness. The chunks of stew meat are soft and marbled, and the abundant garnishes should be placed on in layers (i.e., save some for the inevitable leftovers). The portion is enough for three to share.

I’m happy I took the drive to 23rd Street in Richmond, where this friendly spot does a brisk business. Locals who chat up the servers by name line up for carefully prepared Mexican dishes, including pozole, at this family –run restaurant. Red pozole is served with the classic garnishes, and it might be my favorite version I tried, simply by virtue of its spiciness. Slightly more confident in its chile presentation that the others, but still in the medium heat range, it’s a soup perfectly balanced between meaty depth and bright chile flavor. And pozole is not just a weekend thrill— it’s on the menu every day (except Monday, when the restaurant is closed).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/portumex-richmond\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Portumex\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n721 23rd St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/7JfFav\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nRichmond, CA 94801\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 237-7513\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Fri, 10am-8pm; Sat, 8am-8pm; Sun, 8am-6pm; closed Monday\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $ (pozole, $10)\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>If you have ever enjoyed the pleasure of lingering over a sweet and flaky pastry with a cup of coffee in a Parisian café, you may also know there are very few places which can offer the same experience. European-style pastries, often prepared with hours of labor and love, are a true treat and best when savored slowly. The pastries come in all different shapes, flavors and colors to fit your mood and current craving, from buttery croissants to delectable Napoleons. While they may not offer quite the same romantic experience as say Paris, here are five bakeries along the Peninsula and South Bay Area where you can sink your teeth into an array of European-style pastries. As an added bonus, we have included information about a popular pop-up pastry shop serving pastries at the contemporary French restaurant, Zola in Palo Alto. If we missed your favorite, please be sure to share it in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Manresa Bread\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113181\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries.jpg\" alt=\"A selection of pastries from Manresa Bread.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113181\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Pastries-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A selection of pastries from Manresa Bread. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Manresa Bread sells the same artisanal pastries and bread as those served at David Kinch’s Michelin 3-star Manresa restaurant. The gourmet bakery, headed by Manresa head baker Avery Ruzicka, began as a stand at South Bay farmers markets and has now expanded to two brick-and-mortar locations, one next door to Manresa in Los Gatos and a newly opened location in Los Altos. Weekend visitors should arrive early to get the best pick from a delectable selection of sweet and savory pastries. Not to be missed is the kouign-amann, a round pastry made from layers of flaky dough coated with hardened and sticky caramelized sugar. The savory selections such as a Danish with delicata squash, bacon, gruyere cheese, and onion jam are equally delightful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113180\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Manresa Bread in Los Gatos.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113180\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside Manresa Bread in Los Gatos. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.manresabread.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Manresa Bread\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n276 N Santa Cruz Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/X6mh9i\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nLos Gatos, CA 95030\u003cbr>\nPh: (408) 402-5372\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sun 7am-3pm (or until sold out)\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/manresabread/?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Manresa Bread\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/manresabread\" target=\"_blank\">@ManresaBread\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $ (entrees under $10)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>La Patisserie Bakery\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113187\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna.jpg\" alt=\"A café Vienna pastry from La Patisserie Bakery.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113187\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A café Vienna pastry from La Patisserie Bakery. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>La Patisserie Bakery is tucked away in a Cupertino shopping mall but remains a popular destination for European-style pastries as well as elegantly decorated wedding cakes.

Shelsta came under the wing of Howie Bulka, then the owner of Marché in Menlo Park, who advised him to leave culinary school and to instead learn by doing.

European-style pastries, often prepared with hours of labor and love, are a true treat and best when savored slowly. The pastries come in all different shapes, flavors and colors to fit your mood and current craving, from buttery croissants to delectable Napoleons. While they may not offer quite the same romantic experience as say Paris, here are five bakeries along the Peninsula and South Bay Area where you can sink your teeth into an array of European-style pastries. As an added bonus, we have included information about a popular pop-up pastry shop serving pastries at the contemporary French restaurant, Zola in Palo Alto.

The gourmet bakery, headed by Manresa head baker Avery Ruzicka, began as a stand at South Bay farmers markets and has now expanded to two brick-and-mortar locations, one next door to Manresa in Los Gatos and a newly opened location in Los Altos. Weekend visitors should arrive early to get the best pick from a delectable selection of sweet and savory pastries. Not to be missed is the kouign-amann, a round pastry made from layers of flaky dough coated with hardened and sticky caramelized sugar. The savory selections such as a Danish with delicata squash, bacon, gruyere cheese, and onion jam are equally delightful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113180\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Manresa Bread in Los Gatos.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113180\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Manresa-Counter-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside Manresa Bread in Los Gatos. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.manresabread.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Manresa Bread\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n276 N Santa Cruz Ave. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/X6mh9i\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nLos Gatos, CA 95030\u003cbr>\nPh: (408) 402-5372\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon-Sun 7am-3pm (or until sold out)\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/manresabread/?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Manresa Bread\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/manresabread\" target=\"_blank\">@ManresaBread\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $ (entrees under $10)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>La Patisserie Bakery\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113187\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna.jpg\" alt=\"A café Vienna pastry from La Patisserie Bakery.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113187\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/11/Patisserie-Vienna-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A café Vienna pastry from La Patisserie Bakery. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>La Patisserie Bakery is tucked away in a Cupertino shopping mall but remains a popular destination for European-style pastries as well as elegantly decorated wedding cakes.

Shelsta came under the wing of Howie Bulka, then the owner of Marché in Menlo Park, who advised him to leave culinary school and to instead learn by doing.

My more realistic thoughts turned quickly to what great up-and-coming chefs might come into the space, designed to lower the financial bar for entry into food entrepreneurism by offering hourly rates on kitchen access, as well as training and visibility for aspiring makers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112739\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/IMG_2201-new.jpg\" alt=\"Forage Kitchen, a shared commercial kitchen space on 25th St. in Oakland\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112739\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/IMG_2201-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/IMG_2201-new-400x533.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/IMG_2201-new-800x1067.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/IMG_2201-new-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/IMG_2201-new-1440x1920.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/IMG_2201-new-1180x1573.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/IMG_2201-new-960x1280.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Forage Kitchen, a shared commercial kitchen space on 25th St. in Oakland \u003ccite>(Kim Westerman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://palstakeaway.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Pal’s Take Away\u003c/a>, which debuted here today, will be a regular tenant, open Monday-Saturday from 11-5.

But folks in the neighborhood, of which I am one, tend to think that the Starbucks that went in a mere two blocks over, is what slowly did them in. Regardless, the sweet little café is gone, and in its place has arisen a promising new fast-food spot: Hashtag Poki or #Poki. Despite the implicit Internet reference in the name, the restaurant doesn’t yet have a website. Furthermore, it’s not clear what the actual name of the place is or how to search for it, which is either a really clever allusion to a post-Twitter universe or just a somewhat comical oversight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the food is a welcome addition to the neighborhood’s culinary landscape.

But folks in the neighborhood, of which I am one, tend to think that the Starbucks that went in a mere two blocks over, is what slowly did them in. Regardless, the sweet little café is gone, and in its place has arisen a promising new fast-food spot: Hashtag Poki or #Poki. Despite the implicit Internet reference in the name, the restaurant doesn’t yet have a website. Furthermore, it’s not clear what the actual name of the place is or how to search for it, which is either a really clever allusion to a post-Twitter universe or just a somewhat comical oversight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the food is a welcome addition to the neighborhood’s culinary landscape. Here’s the drill: You line up, choose a bowl size (mini=1 scoop protein; reg=3 scoops protein; lg=4 scoops protein), then tell the friendly crew what you’d like. Each bowl comes with your choice of a base (white, brown or sushi rice or salad greens), two sides (crab, wakame/seaweed or ika/squid salad or edamame), any combination of protein scoops (raw: salmon, tuna, albacore or hamachi (yellowtail) or cooked: tako (octopus), shrimp or tofu).

Hearty servings of tender pork ribs, roasted chicken and smoked brisket fit perfectly with the Americana that is fall football. While the San Francisco Bay Area is nowhere near a barbecue capital as say Kansas City or Austin, the South Bay Area and San Francisco Peninsula are home to several restaurants perfect for visiting when the mood to chomp down on juicy piles of smoked meat strikes. Be sure to enjoy alongside a cold beer and don’t forget the wet towelettes! Here are five popular restaurants for enjoying barbecue south of San Francisco.

The small shop only offers takeout orders, with nothing inside other than a compact kitchen and front counter. The menu features an offering of slow-smoked meats including, beef brisket, ribs, chicken, pulled pork and hot links. The delicious meats can be enjoyed as a combination plate or on a sandwich. Not to be missed are the incredibly tender ribs with a caked on dry rub infused with smoky flavor. The pulled pork, equally pungent with smoked flavor, lends well to being dipped in the sweet and tangy house barbecue sauce.

Located in a historic building in San Jose’s newly founded Little Italy neighborhood, the restaurant has a down-home atmosphere and is a popular meeting spot before and after San Jose Sharks games. To call the food portions ample, is an understatement. Barbecue dinners include a salad, garlic bread slathered with seasoned butter and a baked potato. First time visitors should go for either the full rack of ribs, or the chicken and ribs combination plate. The smoked chicken has a crispy flavor-packed skin while still remaining juicy. The ribs are tender and full of flavor with a sweet and spicy crust.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112294\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Henry’s Hi-Life in San Jose.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112294\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside Henry’s Hi-Life in San Jose. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.henryshilife.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Henry's World Famous Hi-Life\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n301 W St John St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/6m6fJa\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Jose, CA 95110\u003cbr>\nPh: (408) 295-5414\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon 5-9pm; Tue-Thu 11:30am-2pm, 5-9pm; Fri 11:30am-2pm, 4-9:30pm; Sat 4-9:30pm; Sun 4-9pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/henryshilife/?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Henry’s World Famous Hi-Life\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/HenrysHilife\" target=\"_blank\">@henryshilife\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$$ Entrees ($18-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112289\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket.jpg\" alt=\"The chopped brisket tray with coleslaw, cornbread and collard greens.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112289\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The chopped brisket tray with coleslaw, cornbread and collard greens. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3 Pigs BBQ\u003c/strong> is a great option for those on the peninsula looking to enjoy barbecued meats or fried chicken.

Brisket fans will enjoy the juicy bites of chopped brisket which are perfect for dipping into a number of housemade barbecue sauces. The tart Memphis-style sauce which complements the sweet and smoky brisket flavor is especially good. The restaurant has several refrigerators containing bottled and canned beers from West Coast breweries, with selections to please the most discerning beer fan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112290\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3PigsBBQInside.jpg\" alt=\"Inside 3 Pigs BBQ in San Carlos.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112290\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3PigsBBQInside.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3PigsBBQInside-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3PigsBBQInside-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3PigsBBQInside-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3PigsBBQInside-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3PigsBBQInside-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3PigsBBQInside-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside 3 Pigs BBQ in San Carlos. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://3pigbbq.com\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>3 Pigs BBQ\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n1754 Laurel St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/4w0jIc\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Carlos, CA 94070\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 592-4227\u003cbr>\nHours: mon-sun 11:30am-9pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/3PIGBBQ/?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">3 Pigs BBQ\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112298\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/The-Cats-Combo.jpg\" alt=\"A combination plate with ribs, roasted chicken and pulled pork at The Cats.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112298\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/The-Cats-Combo.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/The-Cats-Combo-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/The-Cats-Combo-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/The-Cats-Combo-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/The-Cats-Combo-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/The-Cats-Combo-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/The-Cats-Combo-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A combination plate with ribs, roasted chicken and pulled pork at The Cats. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Located in a building which has served many roles over the years, from roadhouse to general store to local saloon, the recently renovated \u003cstrong>The Cats Restaurant & Bar\u003c/strong> now serves a menu of hickory slow pit smoked barbecue. The restaurant’s staff has been trained by barbecue pit master Paul Kirk, who has won numerous competitions for his barbecue and dry rub. The flavor-packed dry rub is used on the restaurant's juicy pulled pork, smoked chicken and St. Louis-style pork ribs. The barbecue sampler platter gives you a taste of each and arrives with grilled bread, coleslaw and a hearty side option. The meats are best enjoyed with Kirk’s dry rub which is a perfect balance of spice and sweetness, with the slow smoking process infusing an indescribable depth of flavor. However, a house barbecue sauce is available for those who like their barbecue saucy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112291\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar.jpg\" alt=\"Inside The Cats in Los Gatos.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112291\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside The Cats in Los Gatos. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.thecatslosgatos.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>The Cats Restaurant & Bar\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n17533 Santa Cruz Hwy [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/GNcUOz\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nLos Gatos, CA 95033\u003cbr>\nPh: (408) 354-4020\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Sat 4pm-12am; Sun 4-9pm; Closed on Mondays\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/TheCatsRestaurant/\" target=\"_blank\">The Cats Restaurant\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$$ Entrees ($18-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112296\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo.jpg\" alt=\"A combination plate with ribs, fatty brisket and pulled pork at Smoking Pig BBQ Company.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112296\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A combination plate with ribs, fatty brisket and pulled pork at Smoking Pig BBQ Company. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Despite being a ways outside the main streets of downtown San Jose, the \u003cstrong>Smoking Pig BBQ Company\u003c/strong> maintains a regular stream of visitors for their Southern-style barbecue dishes.

Hearty servings of tender pork ribs, roasted chicken and smoked brisket fit perfectly with the Americana that is fall football. While the San Francisco Bay Area is nowhere near a barbecue capital as say Kansas City or Austin, the South Bay Area and San Francisco Peninsula are home to several restaurants perfect for visiting when the mood to chomp down on juicy piles of smoked meat strikes. Be sure to enjoy alongside a cold beer and don’t forget the wet towelettes! Here are five popular restaurants for enjoying barbecue south of San Francisco. If we missed your favorite, please be sure to share it in the comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112293\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaRibs.jpg\" alt=\"A combination plate with ribs and pulled pork at Gorilla BBQ.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112293\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaRibs.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaRibs-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaRibs-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaRibs-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaRibs-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaRibs-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaRibs-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A combination plate with ribs and pulled pork at Gorilla BBQ. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Gorilla Barbecue\u003c/strong> has customers lining up for the slow-smoked barbecue they serve out of a vintage rail car off Highway 1 in Pacifica. The small shop only offers takeout orders, with nothing inside other than a compact kitchen and front counter. The menu features an offering of slow-smoked meats including, beef brisket, ribs, chicken, pulled pork and hot links. The delicious meats can be enjoyed as a combination plate or on a sandwich. Not to be missed are the incredibly tender ribs with a caked on dry rub infused with smoky flavor. The pulled pork, equally pungent with smoked flavor, lends well to being dipped in the sweet and tangy house barbecue sauce. Be sure to arrive early as the menu sells out quickly, particularly on the weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112292\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaBBQCounter.jpg\" alt=\"Customers lined up to order at Gorilla BBQ in Pacifica.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112292\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaBBQCounter.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaBBQCounter-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaBBQCounter-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaBBQCounter-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaBBQCounter-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaBBQCounter-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/GorillaBBQCounter-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Customers lined up to order at Gorilla BBQ in Pacifica. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.gorillabbq.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Gorilla Barbeque\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n2145 Cabrillo Hwy [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/My0IKh\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nPacifica, CA 94044\u003cbr>\nPh: (650) 359-7427\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon 12-8pm; Wed-Sun 12-8pm; Closed on Tuesdays\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Gorilla-Barbeque/226881320730359?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Gorilla Barbeque\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$$ Entrees ($18-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112295\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Hi-Life-Ribs-Combo.jpg\" alt=\"The chicken and rib combination plate at Henry’s Hi-Life.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112295\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Hi-Life-Ribs-Combo.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Hi-Life-Ribs-Combo-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Hi-Life-Ribs-Combo-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Hi-Life-Ribs-Combo-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Hi-Life-Ribs-Combo-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Hi-Life-Ribs-Combo-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Hi-Life-Ribs-Combo-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The chicken and rib combination plate at Henry’s Hi-Life. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Henry's World Famous Hi-Life\u003c/strong> has been serving a menu of oak-smoked barbecue and steaks for more than 50 years in downtown San Jose. Located in a historic building in San Jose’s newly founded Little Italy neighborhood, the restaurant has a down-home atmosphere and is a popular meeting spot before and after San Jose Sharks games. To call the food portions ample, is an understatement. Barbecue dinners include a salad, garlic bread slathered with seasoned butter and a baked potato. First time visitors should go for either the full rack of ribs, or the chicken and ribs combination plate. The smoked chicken has a crispy flavor-packed skin while still remaining juicy. The ribs are tender and full of flavor with a sweet and spicy crust.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112294\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Henry’s Hi-Life in San Jose.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112294\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Henrys-Hi-Life-Bar-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside Henry’s Hi-Life in San Jose. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.henryshilife.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Henry's World Famous Hi-Life\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n301 W St John St. [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/6m6fJa\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nSan Jose, CA 95110\u003cbr>\nPh: (408) 295-5414\u003cbr>\nHours: Mon 5-9pm; Tue-Thu 11:30am-2pm, 5-9pm; Fri 11:30am-2pm, 4-9:30pm; Sat 4-9:30pm; Sun 4-9pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/henryshilife/?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Henry’s World Famous Hi-Life\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/HenrysHilife\" target=\"_blank\">@henryshilife\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$$ Entrees ($18-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112289\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket.jpg\" alt=\"The chopped brisket tray with coleslaw, cornbread and collard greens.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112289\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/3-Pigs-Brisket-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The chopped brisket tray with coleslaw, cornbread and collard greens. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3 Pigs BBQ\u003c/strong> is a great option for those on the peninsula looking to enjoy barbecued meats or fried chicken.

The restaurant’s staff has been trained by barbecue pit master Paul Kirk, who has won numerous competitions for his barbecue and dry rub. The flavor-packed dry rub is used on the restaurant's juicy pulled pork, smoked chicken and St. Louis-style pork ribs. The barbecue sampler platter gives you a taste of each and arrives with grilled bread, coleslaw and a hearty side option. The meats are best enjoyed with Kirk’s dry rub which is a perfect balance of spice and sweetness, with the slow smoking process infusing an indescribable depth of flavor. However, a house barbecue sauce is available for those who like their barbecue saucy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112291\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar.jpg\" alt=\"Inside The Cats in Los Gatos.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112291\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Cats-Bar-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside The Cats in Los Gatos. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.thecatslosgatos.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>The Cats Restaurant & Bar\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n17533 Santa Cruz Hwy [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/GNcUOz\" target=\"_blank\">map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nLos Gatos, CA 95033\u003cbr>\nPh: (408) 354-4020\u003cbr>\nHours: Tue-Sat 4pm-12am; Sun 4-9pm; Closed on Mondays\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/TheCatsRestaurant/\" target=\"_blank\">The Cats Restaurant\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$$ Entrees ($18-$24)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112296\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo.jpg\" alt=\"A combination plate with ribs, fatty brisket and pulled pork at Smoking Pig BBQ Company.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112296\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/Smoking-Pig-Combo-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A combination plate with ribs, fatty brisket and pulled pork at Smoking Pig BBQ Company. \u003ccite>(Jeff Cianci)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Despite being a ways outside the main streets of downtown San Jose, the \u003cstrong>Smoking Pig BBQ Company\u003c/strong> maintains a regular stream of visitors for their Southern-style barbecue dishes.

A second, larger location in Fremont, features live blues music on the weekends in addition to a collection of big high-definition televisions. The slow-smoked brisket is slightly sweet and maintains a good deal of moisture making it a popular menu item. However, the twice-smoked burnt brisket ends which are tossed in a sweet and sticky glaze are a must try.

The Jack London Square festival lasts all weekend and has over 70 food vendors from around California, offering dishes emphasizing local, organic and sustainable fare. All dishes cost $8 or below and proceeds benefit the \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodcraftinstitute.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Food Craft Institute\u003c/a>, an artisan food business incubator. In addition to the food offerings, the festival offers classes, music and events like whole hog butchering featuring a group of local female butchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before we get to our favorite dishes, some general tips: as with all food festivals in the Bay Area, the Eat Real Festival is extremely popular. Over 10,000 people attended last year’s event, and ten minutes into this year's festival, lines were already starting to form for popular vendors like \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2015/09/18/heres-12-things-we-tried-and-loved-at-the-2015-eat-real-festival/\" target=\"_blank\">Burma Bear\u003c/a> and Curry Up Now. Prepare for the day like you would for a trip into battle, or at least, Disneyland: bring a reusable water bottle, comfortable shoes, a hat, and sunscreen. (Jack London Square has barely any shade, and the weekend is supposed to \u003ca href=\"https://weather.com/weather/tenday/l/USCA0791:1:US\" target=\"_blank\">be a hot one\u003c/a>). Some, but not all of the booths take credit and debit cards, so make sure to bring cash. Yes, there are ATMs, but save yourself the probably-astronomical fee by withdrawing some beforehand. There’s a \u003ca href=\"http://www.jacklondonsquare.com/PDF/JLS_Parking_Map.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">parking garage\u003c/a> in Jack London Square, but the festival’s location is close to the ferry, bus, and BART, via the \u003ca href=\"http://www.meetdowntownoak.com/shuttle.php\" target=\"_blank\">free Broadway shuttle\u003c/a>. (Plus, you’ll probably be grateful for the walk after a day of eating). And if you somehow find yourself hungry after the festival, wander to the other side of Jack London Square, where the \u003ca href=\"http://www.lungomareoakland.com/town-eats-2016/\" target=\"_blank\">Town Eats Festival\u003c/a> is also taking place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some of our favorite dishes from the festival.

Poki Time’s version, served at their location in San Francisco, is traditional, with every element--from the fresh ahi tuna to the bright orange fish eggs--works well together, proving why the dish has become so popular. It’s spicy, salty, mildy fish-y and crunchy from the addition of fried onions, providing a satisfyingly well-rounded dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112220\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1.jpg\" alt=\"Poki Time: Poke bowl\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112220\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Poki Time: Poke bowl \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112224\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5.jpg\" alt=\"Poki Time\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112224\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Poki Time \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112243\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4.jpg\" alt=\"El Sur: Verde empanada\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112243\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">El Sur: Verde empanada \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.elsursf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">El Sur\u003c/a>: Verde empanada\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAn empanada is a wise choice for a festival like Eat Real--since it's handheld, you can take it with you as you walk around plotting your next meal. El Sur offers traditional empanadas, but they also offer more creative versions, including a prosciutto and cheese Parisen and a mushroom and creme fraiche Champinones. The Verde was a decadent vegetarian option, with a flaky, buttery crust encasing a tangled mess of chard, spinach, eggs and five cheeses. It was well-seasoned and rich, and as an added bonus, it was ready immediately--unlike the ten minute wait we had for other dishes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112239\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada.jpg\" alt=\"El Sur serving empanadas at the Eat Real Festival\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112239\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">El Sur serving empanadas at the Eat Real Festival \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112260\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1.jpg\" alt=\"CACOCO Drinking Chocolate\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112260\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">CACOCO Drinking Chocolate \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://drinkcacoco.com/\" target=\"_blank\">CACOCO\u003c/a>: Midnight Mystic\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThere’s hot chocolate, and then there’s drinking chocolate: an ultra rich, decidedly adult beverage that’s more like a melted down chocolate bar than your childhood cup of Swiss Miss.

Their colorful Thai Zucchini Noodles feature thick spiralized zucchini noodles, crispy cashews and mixed vegetables drowned in an intriguing tart and sweet coconut sauce. It’s refreshing--crunchy, saucy, and spicy--but not ascetic, and unlike other foods at the festival you’ll feel good both during and after eating it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112273\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen4.jpg\" alt=\"Core Kitchen: Thai Zucchini Noodles\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112273\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen4.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen4-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen4-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen4-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen4-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen4-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen4-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Core Kitchen: Thai Zucchini Noodles \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112269\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen.jpg\" alt=\"Core Kitchen serving Thai Zucchini Noodles at Eat Real Festival\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112269\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/core-kitchen-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Core Kitchen serving Thai Zucchini Noodles at Eat Real Festival \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112263\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chai2.jpg\" alt=\"Chico Chai: Iced Chico Chai\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2880\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112263\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chai2.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chai2-400x600.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chai2-800x1200.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chai2-768x1152.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chai2-1440x2160.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chai2-1180x1770.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chai2-960x1440.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chico Chai: Iced Chico Chai \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://chicochaitea.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Chico Chai\u003c/a>: Iced Chico Chai\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIf you’re used to watery chai that tastes more like cinnamon-spiked milk, Chico Chai will be a revelation.

All the elements coalesce into a delectable, satisfying burger. It also comes medium rare, so if you prefer it more cooked, make sure to let them know. Its one flaw?

They do offer fruit flavors, but like us, you’ll probably be more interested by their bizarre-sounding, carb-centric flavors like Thai tea and sweet potato and mango and sticky rice. One of the most intriguing was the fried chicken and waffle flavor, which was surprisingly delightful. The ice cream was a rich, butter and maple combination, and it’s topped with a shower of black pepper spiked fried chicken bits.

Their ice creams boast strong, bold flavors--like a delicately sweet fig and a spicy, delicious cardamom--and their cookies are chewy and sturdy enough to support the ice cream. We’d recommend trying two mini ice cream sandwiches: it’s a cheap way to try some of Green Girl’s many tasty offerings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112250\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2.jpg\" alt=\"Green Girl\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112250\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Green Girl \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112238\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1.jpg\" alt=\"Barlovento Chocolate: Habanero chocolate bar and other flavors\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112238\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Barlovento Chocolate: Habanero chocolate bar and other flavors \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.barloventochocolates.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Barlovento Chocolate\u003c/a>: Habanero chocolate bar\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIt’s easy to get overwhelmed with the food options outside, but don't miss the festival’s indoor options, where you can get cocktails and attend classes about pairing cheese and beer. There are also local vendors like ten-year-old Barlovento Chocolate, a family-run Oakland chocolate company that uses Venezuelan single origin chocolate as the base for their truffles and chocolate bars. Several of their bars mix salty, sweet and spicy with delicious results: one of their best is a habanero chocolate bar, made from 64% Venezuelan chocolate and topped with habanero and chunky salt. The habanero’s mild burn and flecks of salt enhance the chocolate's richness, making it an entertaining alternative to your traditional bar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112237\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate.jpg\" alt=\"Barlovento Chocolate at the Eat Real Festival \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112237\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Barlovento Chocolate at the Eat Real Festival \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://eatrealfest.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Eat Real Festival\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJack London Square\u003cbr>\n65 Webster Street\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94607\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 842-1017\u003cbr>\nSaturday 10:30am-9pm\u003cbr>\nSunday 10:30am-5pm\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/eatrealfestival\" target=\"_blank\">Eat Real Festival\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/eatrealfest\" target=\"_blank\">@eatrealfest\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/eatrealfest/\" target=\"_blank\">eatrealfest\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The Jack London Square festival lasts all weekend and has over 70 food vendors from around California, offering dishes emphasizing local, organic and sustainable fare. All dishes cost $8 or below and proceeds benefit the \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodcraftinstitute.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Food Craft Institute\u003c/a>, an artisan food business incubator. In addition to the food offerings, the festival offers classes, music and events like whole hog butchering featuring a group of local female butchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before we get to our favorite dishes, some general tips: as with all food festivals in the Bay Area, the Eat Real Festival is extremely popular. Over 10,000 people attended last year’s event, and ten minutes into this year's festival, lines were already starting to form for popular vendors like \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2015/09/18/heres-12-things-we-tried-and-loved-at-the-2015-eat-real-festival/\" target=\"_blank\">Burma Bear\u003c/a> and Curry Up Now. Prepare for the day like you would for a trip into battle, or at least, Disneyland: bring a reusable water bottle, comfortable shoes, a hat, and sunscreen. (Jack London Square has barely any shade, and the weekend is supposed to \u003ca href=\"https://weather.com/weather/tenday/l/USCA0791:1:US\" target=\"_blank\">be a hot one\u003c/a>). Some, but not all of the booths take credit and debit cards, so make sure to bring cash. Yes, there are ATMs, but save yourself the probably-astronomical fee by withdrawing some beforehand. There’s a \u003ca href=\"http://www.jacklondonsquare.com/PDF/JLS_Parking_Map.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">parking garage\u003c/a> in Jack London Square, but the festival’s location is close to the ferry, bus, and BART, via the \u003ca href=\"http://www.meetdowntownoak.com/shuttle.php\" target=\"_blank\">free Broadway shuttle\u003c/a>. (Plus, you’ll probably be grateful for the walk after a day of eating). And if you somehow find yourself hungry after the festival, wander to the other side of Jack London Square, where the \u003ca href=\"http://www.lungomareoakland.com/town-eats-2016/\" target=\"_blank\">Town Eats Festival\u003c/a> is also taking place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some of our favorite dishes from the festival.

Poki Time’s version, served at their location in San Francisco, is traditional, with every element--from the fresh ahi tuna to the bright orange fish eggs--works well together, proving why the dish has become so popular. It’s spicy, salty, mildy fish-y and crunchy from the addition of fried onions, providing a satisfyingly well-rounded dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112220\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1.jpg\" alt=\"Poki Time: Poke bowl\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112220\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Poki Time: Poke bowl \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112224\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5.jpg\" alt=\"Poki Time\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112224\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/poke-bowl5-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Poki Time \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112243\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4.jpg\" alt=\"El Sur: Verde empanada\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112243\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada4-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">El Sur: Verde empanada \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.elsursf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">El Sur\u003c/a>: Verde empanada\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAn empanada is a wise choice for a festival like Eat Real--since it's handheld, you can take it with you as you walk around plotting your next meal. El Sur offers traditional empanadas, but they also offer more creative versions, including a prosciutto and cheese Parisen and a mushroom and creme fraiche Champinones. The Verde was a decadent vegetarian option, with a flaky, buttery crust encasing a tangled mess of chard, spinach, eggs and five cheeses. It was well-seasoned and rich, and as an added bonus, it was ready immediately--unlike the ten minute wait we had for other dishes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112239\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada.jpg\" alt=\"El Sur serving empanadas at the Eat Real Festival\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112239\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/empanada-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">El Sur serving empanadas at the Eat Real Festival \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112260\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1.jpg\" alt=\"CACOCO Drinking Chocolate\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112260\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/cacoco1-1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">CACOCO Drinking Chocolate \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://drinkcacoco.com/\" target=\"_blank\">CACOCO\u003c/a>: Midnight Mystic\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThere’s hot chocolate, and then there’s drinking chocolate: an ultra rich, decidedly adult beverage that’s more like a melted down chocolate bar than your childhood cup of Swiss Miss.

It’s incredibly messy, and fell apart midway through our sampling (however, this didn’t keep us from finishing every last bite).\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112231\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/burger1.jpg\" alt=\"Clove and Hoof\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112231\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/burger1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/burger1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/burger1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/burger1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/burger1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/burger1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/burger1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Clove and Hoof \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112229\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/beer-shed2.jpg\" alt=\"Beer Shed: Cleophus Quealy Beer Company’s Hibiscus Saison\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112229\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/beer-shed2.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/beer-shed2-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/beer-shed2-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/beer-shed2-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/beer-shed2-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/beer-shed2-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/beer-shed2-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Beer Shed: Cleophus Quealy Beer Company’s Hibiscus Saison \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Beer Shed: \u003ca href=\"http://www.cleoph.us/\" target=\"_blank\">Cleophus Quealy Beer Company\u003c/a>’s Hibiscus Saison\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nEat Real also boasts an impressive beer, cider and spirit selection, with options ranging from Hanger 1 vodka to newcomers \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2016/08/29/for-a-new-brewery-what-does-it-take-to-make-it/\" target=\"_blank\">Novel Brewing\u003c/a>.

They do offer fruit flavors, but like us, you’ll probably be more interested by their bizarre-sounding, carb-centric flavors like Thai tea and sweet potato and mango and sticky rice. One of the most intriguing was the fried chicken and waffle flavor, which was surprisingly delightful. The ice cream was a rich, butter and maple combination, and it’s topped with a shower of black pepper spiked fried chicken bits. It’s quirky, and thoughtfully so: the ice cream isn’t too sweet, and its salty, sweet, crunch makes for a delightfully weird yet balanced dessert.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112247\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/fat-face2.jpg\" alt=\"Fat Face popsicles \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112247\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/fat-face2.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/fat-face2-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/fat-face2-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/fat-face2-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/fat-face2-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/fat-face2-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/fat-face2-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fat Face popsicles \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112248\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl.jpg\" alt=\"Green Girl: Cardamom and balsamic fig ice cream sandwiches\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112248\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Green Girl: Cardamom and balsamic fig ice cream sandwiches \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112249\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl1.jpg\" alt=\"Green Girl: Cardamom and balsamic fig ice cream sandwiches\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112249\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Green Girl: Cardamom and balsamic fig ice cream sandwiches \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.greengirlbakeshop.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Green Girl\u003c/a>: Cardamom and balsamic fig ice cream sandwiches\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nWe also sampled the virtuous ice cream sandwiches from Green Girl that are both gluten and dairy free. Although the opposite side of the dietary spectrum from Fat Face, we were similarly surprised by how good they were. Their ice creams boast strong, bold flavors--like a delicately sweet fig and a spicy, delicious cardamom--and their cookies are chewy and sturdy enough to support the ice cream. We’d recommend trying two mini ice cream sandwiches: it’s a cheap way to try some of Green Girl’s many tasty offerings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112250\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2.jpg\" alt=\"Green Girl\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112250\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/green-girl2-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Green Girl \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112238\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1.jpg\" alt=\"Barlovento Chocolate: Habanero chocolate bar and other flavors\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112238\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/09/chocolate1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Barlovento Chocolate: Habanero chocolate bar and other flavors \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.barloventochocolates.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Barlovento Chocolate\u003c/a>: Habanero chocolate bar\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIt’s easy to get overwhelmed with the food options outside, but don't miss the festival’s indoor options, where you can get cocktails and attend classes about pairing cheese and beer. There are also local vendors like ten-year-old Barlovento Chocolate, a family-run Oakland chocolate company that uses Venezuelan single origin chocolate as the base for their truffles and chocolate bars. Several of their bars mix salty, sweet and spicy with delicious results: one of their best is a habanero chocolate bar, made from 64% Venezuelan chocolate and topped with habanero and chunky salt.

Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
