Bay Area; Taste This; Celebrity Chefs; seven of Jacques Pepin's TV series websites; and Joanne Weir's Cooking in the City. I initiated the majority of KQED Food's social media feeds and maintained them up until 2017. As far as content creation, photography is my passion and I also shoot video and write stories. My photos have been used in articles for KQED Food, News, Arts, and Science as well as for promotional purposes in print and online. Professional education and training includes: clinical psychology, photography, commercial cooking, web design, information architecture and UX.",

"bio": "Kim Westerman has been writing about food and wine for most of her adult life. 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.

"content": "\u003cp>Fall is upon us and the first chill of winter is slowly creeping into the Bay Area, which means it's time for wool sweaters, umbrellas (if we're lucky) and warm comfort food. While one can appreciate soups, stews and sandwiches filled with melty goodness at any time of the year, these meals taste even better when we're curled up inside the toasty confines of one of our favorite restaurants. Lucky for us Oakland residents, there's plenty of places to find grilled cheese sandwiches -- like at the five suggested spots listed below.

While one can appreciate soups, stews and sandwiches filled with melty goodness at any time of the year, these meals taste even better when we're curled up inside the toasty confines of one of our favorite restaurants. Lucky for us Oakland residents, there's plenty of places to find grilled cheese sandwiches -- like at the five suggested spots listed below.

And they have a small deli that carries select grocery items, beer and wine for sale if you'd like to pick up some gourmet items to take home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>The Ethiopian community in the Easy Bay is largely concentrated along Telegraph Avenue from uptown Oakland to south Berkeley. The most visible sign of this thriving sub-culture is its restaurants and cafés which are mostly located along the main drag. While all of these places are casual, they vary widely in terms of service and wait times for food. But they’re all friendly, with the staff (often the owners) eager to share their cuisine. Everything's scooped up with \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injera\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">injera\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, a spongy flatbread made from sourdough teff or some combination of wheat, barley, corn, and rice. And they’re welcoming to kids — after all, you eat with your hands! I tried the vegetarian and meat combos at each spot, as well as the honey wine, the traditional beverage pairing, whenever a brand was recommended by the server. (Be aware that many local Ethiopian restaurants have bars separate from their dining spaces, but all serve alcohol at the tables and in the bar.) And a final disclaimer: Though coffee is an Ethiopian tradition, I didn’t find any spots that stood out for great coffee preparation or service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_102759\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-102759\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat.jpg\" alt=\"The meat combination plate at Abesha.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The meat combination plate at Abesha. \u003ccite>(Kim Westerman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One of the best on this list for food, service, and all-around experience is the spare, sunlit space that is \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/abesha-ethiopian-cuisine-oakland\">Abesha\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, in an otherwise nondescript block that is technically in Temescal.

There are four dining spaces: a few tables on the street, two small dining rooms on either side of the kitchen and a wonderful patio out back that I never knew existed until recently. Service is exceedingly slow, but utterly delightful, and each dish is prepared thoughtfully and lovingly, not by rote. The spice profiles are vibrant, in primary colors, not muted in an attempt to satisfy more sensitive or “refined” palates. All the food was excellent, and in the home-style “comfort” category. Standouts include \u003cem>atakilt wat\u003c/em>, stewed cabbage with potatoes and \u003cem>doro tibs\u003c/em>, boneless chicken with garlic, onions and jalapeños.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://barcote.com/index.html\">\u003cstrong>Barcote Ethiopian Restaurant\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n6430 Telegraph Avenue [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/EGywsu\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94609\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 923-6181\u003cbr>\nHours: Daily 11am-10pm\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_102769\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-102769\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food.jpg\" alt=\"The meat and vegetable combination plates served on one platter.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-400x225.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-800x450.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-1440x810.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-960x540.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bole's meat and vegetable combination plates served on one platter. \u003ccite>(Kim Westerman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/bole-ethiopian-restaurant-oakland-2\">Bole\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> is where I tried Enat, my favorite honey wine. It's a widely available brand but served properly here (cold and in a wine stem). There are two choices: dry and sweet. The sweet version is downright syrupy, what regular wine drinkers in the U.S. would consider a dessert wine. The “dry” wine has residual sugar, too, but goes well as a table wine with the food, especially the spicier dishes, which Bole excels at. Order the \u003cem>quanta firfir\u003c/em>, a staple in the Eritrean tradition: dried beef stewed in a spicy tomato sauce. \u003cem>Mitten shiro\u003c/em>, chickpeas stewed with onions and herbs, is a great veggie option.

Still, it’s worth a visit for the house-ground spice blends and careful cooking.

The most visible sign of this thriving sub-culture is its restaurants and cafés which are mostly located along the main drag. While all of these places are casual, they vary widely in terms of service and wait times for food. But they’re all friendly, with the staff (often the owners) eager to share their cuisine. Everything's scooped up with \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injera\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">injera\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, a spongy flatbread made from sourdough teff or some combination of wheat, barley, corn, and rice. And they’re welcoming to kids — after all, you eat with your hands! I tried the vegetarian and meat combos at each spot, as well as the honey wine, the traditional beverage pairing, whenever a brand was recommended by the server. (Be aware that many local Ethiopian restaurants have bars separate from their dining spaces, but all serve alcohol at the tables and in the bar.) And a final disclaimer: Though coffee is an Ethiopian tradition, I didn’t find any spots that stood out for great coffee preparation or service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_102759\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-102759\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat.jpg\" alt=\"The meat combination plate at Abesha.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/10/Abesha_meat-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The meat combination plate at Abesha. \u003ccite>(Kim Westerman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One of the best on this list for food, service, and all-around experience is the spare, sunlit space that is \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/abesha-ethiopian-cuisine-oakland\">Abesha\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, in an otherwise nondescript block that is technically in Temescal.

There are four dining spaces: a few tables on the street, two small dining rooms on either side of the kitchen and a wonderful patio out back that I never knew existed until recently. Service is exceedingly slow, but utterly delightful, and each dish is prepared thoughtfully and lovingly, not by rote. The spice profiles are vibrant, in primary colors, not muted in an attempt to satisfy more sensitive or “refined” palates. All the food was excellent, and in the home-style “comfort” category. Standouts include \u003cem>atakilt wat\u003c/em>, stewed cabbage with potatoes and \u003cem>doro tibs\u003c/em>, boneless chicken with garlic, onions and jalapeños.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://barcote.com/index.html\">\u003cstrong>Barcote Ethiopian Restaurant\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n6430 Telegraph Avenue [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/EGywsu\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nBerkeley, CA 94609\u003cbr>\nPh: (510) 923-6181\u003cbr>\nHours: Daily 11am-10pm\u003cbr>\nPrice Range: $$ Entrees ($11-$17)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_102769\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-102769\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food.jpg\" alt=\"The meat and vegetable combination plates served on one platter.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-400x225.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-800x450.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-1440x810.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2015/11/Bole_food-960x540.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bole's meat and vegetable combination plates served on one platter. \u003ccite>(Kim Westerman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/bole-ethiopian-restaurant-oakland-2\">Bole\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> is where I tried Enat, my favorite honey wine. It's a widely available brand but served properly here (cold and in a wine stem). There are two choices: dry and sweet. The sweet version is downright syrupy, what regular wine drinkers in the U.S. would consider a dessert wine. The “dry” wine has residual sugar, too, but goes well as a table wine with the food, especially the spicier dishes, which Bole excels at.

"content": "\u003cp>Whether its mac 'n' cheese or samosas, chocolate chip cookies or tamales, everyone has their own notions of comfort food. Growing up in a Korean-American home, rice was the foundation for many of my meals. We always had our rice cooker plugged in on our kitchen countertop, warming a big potful of rice I'd dig into for a fast after school snack. Cracking a raw egg into a bowl filled with hot white rice, butter and soy sauce, I'd mix it all together to let the heat cook the egg. I'm still partial to rice bowls, and here’s four places in Oakland -- plus one in Berkeley -- where you'll find an excellent selection of Asian options.

Growing up in a Korean-American home, rice was the foundation for many of my meals. We always had our rice cooker plugged in on our kitchen countertop, warming a big potful of rice I'd dig into for a fast after school snack. Cracking a raw egg into a bowl filled with hot white rice, butter and soy sauce, I'd mix it all together to let the heat cook the egg. I'm still partial to rice bowls, and here’s four places in Oakland -- plus one in Berkeley -- where you'll find an excellent selection of Asian options.

The tender, gingery pork spareribs in black bean sauce is a classic choice, but there's also eel, quail and even frog if you're looking for something besides the usual meaty offerings.

There's myriad incarnations, but a traditional version, like the one served at Chilli Padi, contains the following mini-buffet: stir-fried, chili-infused anchovies; roasted, salted peanuts; half of a hard-boiled egg, curried meat (in this case, tender slices chicken with potatoes); fresh cucumbers; and \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sambal\" target=\"_blank\">sambal\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, or chili paste.

(Sometimes the entire dish is wrapped in or served on top of one of these leaves as well.)

But as a Korean-American who grew up eating rice with breakfast, lunch and dinner, my idea of a \"meat and three\" often includes this staple grain from Asia. Given the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Asian-population-swells-in-Bay-Area-state-nation-3425777.php\" target=\"_blank\">diverse ethnic population of the Bay Area\u003c/a>, there's no shortage of restaurants to order a humble rice plate -- in its numerous incarnations -- around the clock. Here's five places that I've selected to show the range of tasty rice plates that are available in Oakland; please let us know your favorites in the comments.

Typically eaten for breakfast, it's now consumed all day in Malaysia and neighboring Southeast Asian countries. There's myriad incarnations, but a traditional version, like the one served at Chilli Padi, contains the following mini-buffet: stir-fried, chili-infused anchovies; roasted, salted peanuts; half of a hard-boiled egg, curried meat (in this case, tender slices chicken with potatoes); fresh cucumbers; and \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sambal\" target=\"_blank\">sambal\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, or chili paste.

(Sometimes the entire dish is wrapped in or served on top of one of these leaves as well.) Its rich flavor lives up to the dish's name, as \u003cem>nasi lemak \u003c/em>translates to \"fat rice\" (although from a culinary standpoint, \u003ca href=\"http://zesterdaily.com/cooking/malaysian-rice-dish-nasi-lemak-recipe/\" target=\"_blank\">it means \"enriched\"\u003c/a>.)
