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

"bio": "I am a writer, editor, mother of twins, and enthusiastic home cook. I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>. My food inspirations are M.F.K Fisher, Julia Child, and Alice Waters — three fabulous women who encompass everything I love about food.",

So far she has learned that she very much enjoys salted caramel anything, a good soup dumpling is worth a scalded tongue, and there is no room in life for non-fat cheese and crappy chocolate. Also, a barrel of cheese balls never ends well. \r\n\r\nStephanie has been known to choose her company based on how much they can pack it down. Ability to endure cramped quarters, sketchy back alleys, and uncharted paths to seek out that special dish is also a plus in her book. If you fit the criteria, drop a note. You’ll probably get along just fine.\r\n\r\nStephanie's writing and photography have been featured in Fodor's Travel, Wine Enthusiast Magazine, Serious Eats, and Sundance Channel.

Meanwhile, disco's antecedents get a spin at \u003ca href=\"http://www.sushigroove.com\">Sushi Groove\u003c/a> in Nob Hill and SOMA, which offer \u003cem>Techno\u003c/em> (fish of the day with cucumber and tobiko) and \u003cem>Jungle\u003c/em> (yellowtail, papaya, and tobiko) Rolls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sushi has been a popular metaphor in rap music ever since Big Daddy Kane said he was \"raw like sushi,\" a line that still pops up with frequency today. It's often equated with success, as Atlanta rapper Young Dro enthuses on the remix of Jim Jones' popular \"We Fly High\": \"I'm skating on ice like Kristi Yamaguchi/Sit up in the Chevy eating blowfish sushi.\" The food is also now frequently used rather rudely to talk about a woman's anatomy, as in \u003ca href=\"http://www.myspace.com/thisisdrake\">Drake's\u003c/a> contribution to the Young Money hit \"Bedrock\": \"I love your sushi roll/hotter than wasabi/I race for your love/Shake and bake, \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0415306/\">Ricky Bobby\u003c/a>.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Locally, a love of rap music surfaces in the \u003cem>Hip-Hop Roll\u003c/em> at Dogpatch sushi joint Moshi Moshi (eel, avocado, and tobiko) and \u003ca href=\"http://www.otorosushi.com\">Otoro\u003c/a> in Hayes Valley (tempura shrimp and avocado topped with garlic white tuna). The recently opened \u003ca href=\"http://www.massake.com\">Mas Sake Freestyle Sushi\u003c/a> in Cow Hollow has a hip-hop tinged name, and gives the honor of a roll to legendary hypemaster Doug E. Fresh with the \u003cem>Dougie Fresh\u003c/em> (tempura shrimp with avocado and ginger) and crossover star \u003cem>Kid Rock\u003c/em> (tempura calamari, radish sprouts, and cucumber). But \u003ca href=\"http://www.barracudasushi.com\">Barracuda\u003c/a> features the most hardcore take on the genre with its \u003cem>Gangsta Roll\u003c/em> (yellowtail, cucumber, and green onions covered with eel and salmon topped with tobiko and eel sauce) at its locations in San Francisco, Daly City, Burlingame, Redwood City, and Mountain View. Barracuda's also got the \u003cem>Rock Star\u003c/em> (spicy tuna tempura and avocado topped with tuna, salmon, eel, and four fruit sauces) and the \u003cem>Punk Rocker\u003c/em> (deep-fried soft-shell crab with avocado, cucumber, snow crab, eel, shrimp, avocado, and eel sauce).

The stuff is amazing. The ice is shaved so fine that it actually produces a \u003cem>creamy\u003c/em> texture. 95% of Ululani's flavors are made with premium purees, concentrates and/or extracts. These homemade syrups are what set Ululani's shave ice apart from all the rest. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I tried their most popular flavor combo, the \u003cstrong>Haleakala\u003c/strong>, and fell in love. ½ coconut and ½ leche (a milky flavor with soft hints of cinnamon and nutmeg), topped with their signature \"snow cap\" (a sweet condensed milk and cream mixture).

The richness of the foie melded seamlessly with the luxurious ahi tuna, resulting in the most heavenly bite.

If you're staying in West Maui like we were, you need to hit the road by 3 am in order to make the trek up 10,000 feet up above sea level where it is actually \u003cem>cold\u003c/em>.

Walking in is like entering a time capsule. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People rave about the \u003cstrong>Cream Puffs\u003c/strong>. The pastry shell is light and fluffy, and the cream filling is more like a vanilla custard rather than whipped cream or pastry cream.

Because it’s just starting to gain popularity, it still has a shiny, new, feel to it all. It was great to see people so jazzed about hydroponics, and excited about planting home gardens -- even \"resort\" gardens, like the ones \u003cstrong>Chef Ryan Urig\u003c/strong>, of \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/KapaluaMaui/Dining/TheBanyanTree/Default.htm\">The Banyan Tree\u003c/a>, built right on the grounds of The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Banyan Tree is located inside the resort grounds, and just a stone-throw away from its front steps, next to the stunning hotel pool, is a legitimate herb garden, flourishing with things like grapefruit mint and Thai basil, free for guests to walk through and admire (and pluck a garnish for their cocktail if they so wished). Further behind the scenes is an impressive hydroponic farming system in the works, as well as a large composting operation.

The stuff is amazing. The ice is shaved so fine that it actually produces a \u003cem>creamy\u003c/em> texture. 95% of Ululani's flavors are made with premium purees, concentrates and/or extracts. These homemade syrups are what set Ululani's shave ice apart from all the rest. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I tried their most popular flavor combo, the \u003cstrong>Haleakala\u003c/strong>, and fell in love. ½ coconut and ½ leche (a milky flavor with soft hints of cinnamon and nutmeg), topped with their signature \"snow cap\" (a sweet condensed milk and cream mixture).

It was the best dish of our entire vacation. Who would've thought that this combo could work so well? The richness of the foie melded seamlessly with the luxurious ahi tuna, resulting in the most heavenly bite.

Walking in is like entering a time capsule. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People rave about the \u003cstrong>Cream Puffs\u003c/strong>. The pastry shell is light and fluffy, and the cream filling is more like a vanilla custard rather than whipped cream or pastry cream. My favorite though, was the guava jam-filled \u003cstrong>Malasada Donut\u003c/strong>, sparkling with sugar. And the \u003cstrong>Stick Donut\u003c/strong>.

This is actually a neat fact…there are a number of widely varying microclimates on the island, ranging from the hot and sunny coasts, to humid jungle, to the cool, dry climates of what is called \"upcountry.\" This range of climates allows for a wide range of produce to be farmed. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The region called Kula, full of soil blessed with nutrient-rich volcanic ash, is prime land for growing corn.

Because it’s just starting to gain popularity, it still has a shiny, new, feel to it all.

Which turned out to be, unsurprisingly, pizza and burgers.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For all that Yelp's Joesten had to say about his company's proprietary, scam-searching algorithm for rating and ranking user reviews, a smart professional critic whose palate and judgment you trust is still a more reliable guide than a blogger hoping for perks and freebies, or an anonymous poster with any number of axes to grind. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there's the other bonus: good writing! Among all the long-winded digressions about data mining and statistical analytics (which got many of the industry types and interested foodies fidgeting in their seats and yes, probably checking their tweets), no one mentioned the enjoyment value of professional criticism until the closing minutes, when audience member Jan Newberry, food editor of \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanfranmag.com\">San Francisco\u003c/a> magazine, noted that no one goes to Yelp for the prose, whereas good criticism is also good writing--entertaining, informative, able to put a restaurant, its chef, and its scene into a social, gastronomic, and cultural context.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(As a former restaurant critic for both the Bay Guardian and San Francisco magazine, I was often asked how I \"got paid to eat.\" My response? I didn't get paid to eat, I got paid to write. Eating was just what I happened to write about.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, there was lots to say about how a restaurant, or a chef, can build a community and a brand through judicious use of Twitter, blogs, Yelp, and more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp> As Weinberg noted, \"It's a free 24 hour a day focus group. Looking on places like Yelp, you can start to see trends. If 10 posts in a week tell you the soup isn't so great or the bartender was rude, you know that maybe it's time to get a better soup, or a better bartender.\" \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Said Lewis, \"You can use to engage your customers, start a direct dialogue with guests, ask for feedback rather than it getting blasted all over the internet. It can be great for customer touch-back, especially when they've given you positive comments. Thanking someone for a positive post builds loyalty instantly.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>According to Lewis, customers love to get a glimpse \"behind the velvet rope,\" and hearing that the sommelier is really jazzed about a new Cab or that the pastry chef is doing something fantastic with the season's first pluots can galvanize these would-be insiders into showing up that very night. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But how much transparency is too much?\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp> Said Lucchesi, to much laughter from the audience, \"You know, Eric Ripert of Le Bernardin in NYC just started tweeting.

Among all the long-winded digressions about data mining and statistical analytics (which got many of the industry types and interested foodies fidgeting in their seats and yes, probably checking their tweets), no one mentioned the enjoyment value of professional criticism until the closing minutes, when audience member Jan Newberry, food editor of \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanfranmag.com\">San Francisco\u003c/a> magazine, noted that no one goes to Yelp for the prose, whereas good criticism is also good writing--entertaining, informative, able to put a restaurant, its chef, and its scene into a social, gastronomic, and cultural context.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(As a former restaurant critic for both the Bay Guardian and San Francisco magazine, I was often asked how I \"got paid to eat.\" My response?

Thanking someone for a positive post builds loyalty instantly.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>According to Lewis, customers love to get a glimpse \"behind the velvet rope,\" and hearing that the sommelier is really jazzed about a new Cab or that the pastry chef is doing something fantastic with the season's first pluots can galvanize these would-be insiders into showing up that very night. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But how much transparency is too much?\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp> Said Lucchesi, to much laughter from the audience, \"You know, Eric Ripert of Le Bernardin in NYC just started tweeting.

It is unknown if the 45-year old Crenn championed over Symon on Iron Chef, but her publicity machine is heavily promoting this appearance. Crenn has also competed on \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodnetwork.com/the-next-iron-chef/index.html\">The Next Iron Chef\u003c/a>, where she was given the rather onerous task of making dishes with sea cucumber. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crenn first moved to the Bay Area in 1988, and has worked under Jeremiah Tower and Mark Franz at Stars, as well as put in kitchen time at Campton Place, 2223 Market, and Yoyo Bistro at the Miyako Hotel. She worked in Jakarta, Indonesia, which was cut short by the 1997 political unrest in Southeast Asia. She ended up in L.A., doing private catering for luminaries such as Al Gore, Sidney Poitier, Juliette Binoche, and Cyndi Lauper. Crenn has long been an advocate for sustainable and organic cuisine. As founder of the “A Moveable Feast” dinner events, she worked with local farmers and chefs to raise funds for CUESA (Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture). She is also a frequent presence at other food-related charity events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her (tres magnifique) French accent remains, and she was raised in Versailles. Crenn’s father was a politician, and helped introduce her to fine food as a child. His best friend was a French food critic, and she journeyed to many eating spots to eat and learn. When Crenn was shooting Iron Chef, it was the tenth anniversary of her father’s death. \u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/08/Dominique-CrennFlambe500.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/08/Dominique-CrennFlambe500.jpg\" alt=\"Dominique Crenn\" title=\"Dominique Crenn\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15846\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chef shared her favorite eating spots with Bay Area Bites via email.

Michelin rated \u003ca href=\"http://www.lucewinerestaurant.com/\">Luce Wine Restaurant\u003c/a>, where Crenn is the Chef de Cuisine, will offer the Chef’s TV-inspired creations with a special Iron Chef menu, priced at $65 per person, and starting on August 10th. It is unknown if the 45-year old Crenn championed over Symon on Iron Chef, but her publicity machine is heavily promoting this appearance. Crenn has also competed on \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodnetwork.com/the-next-iron-chef/index.html\">The Next Iron Chef\u003c/a>, where she was given the rather onerous task of making dishes with sea cucumber. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crenn first moved to the Bay Area in 1988, and has worked under Jeremiah Tower and Mark Franz at Stars, as well as put in kitchen time at Campton Place, 2223 Market, and Yoyo Bistro at the Miyako Hotel. She worked in Jakarta, Indonesia, which was cut short by the 1997 political unrest in Southeast Asia. She ended up in L.A., doing private catering for luminaries such as Al Gore, Sidney Poitier, Juliette Binoche, and Cyndi Lauper. Crenn has long been an advocate for sustainable and organic cuisine. As founder of the “A Moveable Feast” dinner events, she worked with local farmers and chefs to raise funds for CUESA (Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture). She is also a frequent presence at other food-related charity events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her (tres magnifique) French accent remains, and she was raised in Versailles. Crenn’s father was a politician, and helped introduce her to fine food as a child. His best friend was a French food critic, and she journeyed to many eating spots to eat and learn. When Crenn was shooting Iron Chef, it was the tenth anniversary of her father’s death. \u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/08/Dominique-CrennFlambe500.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/08/Dominique-CrennFlambe500.jpg\" alt=\"Dominique Crenn\" title=\"Dominique Crenn\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15846\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chef shared her favorite eating spots with Bay Area Bites via email.

Afterward, I started wondering how many other coffee roasters there were in the Bay Area. I knew we had a few -- from \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a> to \u003ca href=\"http://www.caffetrieste.com/\">Caffé Trieste\u003c/a> -- but was surprised to find that we have a long and impressive history as a roasting capital. From James Folger selling freshly roasted beans to dusty and thirsty miners during the gold rush, to the new wave of single-origin roasters like \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual \u003c/a>and \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel\u003c/a>, the Bay Area has been at the epicenter of coffee roasting in the United States for over 160 years. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The story of James Folger is one of those classic gold rush tales where an entrepreneur makes his fortune selling a prized commodity instead of mining for gold. Because James was only 15 when he journeyed to the area with his brothers, he was deemed too young to mine. Lucky for him no one thought he was too young to sell coffee, which is what he did in the mining fields out near Nevada City. He then made his way further west where he worked in the first San Francisco coffee roastery on Powell Street, which he eventually bought and turned into the mega \u003ca href=\"http://www.folgers.com/\">Folgers\u003c/a>. \u003ca href=\"http://www.hillsbros.com/\">Hills Brothers\u003c/a> -- another local company -- was also part of that first wave of coffee purveyors in the U.S. making cups of American Joe for our grandparents and great grandparents. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's an understatement to say that the 50s and 60s were a time of change for San Francisco, but what you may not know is that coffee was an integral part of the culture dynamic at that time. Giovanni Giotta opened \u003ca href=\"http://www.caffetrieste.com/\">Caffé Trieste\u003c/a>, which started selling lovely dark European roasts in North Beach. In addition to becoming the local purveyor of coffee to the many Italian families in the area, his café was also the hot spot for people like \u003ca href=\"http://www.beatmuseum.org/kerouac/jackkerouac.html\">Jack Kerouac\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.poets.org/poet.php/prmPID/8\">Allen Ginsberg\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.citylights.com/ferlinghetti/\">Lawrence Ferlinghetti\u003c/a> (who, I hear, is still a regular). Where would American poetry and fiction be without Papa Giotta's coffee? It's also reported that Francis Ford Coppola wrote most of \u003ca href=\"http://www.scenariusze.stopklatka.pl/pdf/Godfather.pdf\">The Godfather script\u003c/a> (pdf) there. Then, in the 60s, \u003ca href=\"http://www.peets.com/who_we_are/history_vine.asp\">Alfred Peet started his now legendary store in North Berkeley\u003c/a>, where he roasted and sold small-batch single-origin and blended coffees to all those students, flower children, and protesters. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Blue Bottle Coffee and Sightglass Coffee Bar and Roastery\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https://www.flickr.com/photos/bayareabites/albums/72157624481318373\" title=\"Bay Area Coffee Roasters\">\u003cimg src=\"https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4144/4839154993_a09bc94253_b.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"669\" alt=\"Bay Area Coffee Roasters\">\u003c/a>\u003cscript async src=\"//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\">\u003c/script>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Photos by Wendy Goodfriend\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, although you can still enjoy those rich dark roasts provided by Caffé Trieste and Peet's today, the Bay Area is once again at the forefront of coffee roasting in the U.S., this time to a new generation of roasters who are myopically focused on finding the finest single-origin coffees, paying a more than fair price for the beans, and then roasting them for their own unique qualities. These roasts are often lighter than what you'd find elsewhere, the philosophy being that roasting for each bean's unique flavors reveals the innate natural essence inside them. Much like wine, hints of spices, fruits and herbs emerge under the right conditions. When I heard this, I thought fine, but really how much of these can you taste? It wasn't until I had an amazing cup of hand-dripped \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual\u003c/a> coffee at \u003ca href=\"http://remedyoakland.com/\">Remedy\u003c/a>-- a new café in Oakland -- that I became a true believer. That cup of coffee was actually so good I decided not to add my normal allotment of milk and just sat there, savoring the subtle hints of plum and chocolate arising from my cup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This new wave of coffee roasters seems a direct response to the Frappuccino world of Starbucks. From baristas to roasters, people associated with these cafes and roasting facilities seem obsessed with the craft and art of making the perfect cup of coffee. Whipped cream and hazelnut flavoring have no place in these establishments -- these places are in business to sell coffee to customers who can appreciate the difference between a single-origin Guatamalan and a Sumatran blend. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many are neighborhood cafes that roast on the premises. Companies like \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual Roasters\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel Coffee\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sightglasscoffee.com/\">Sightglass Coffee Bar and Roastery\u003c/a> -- which are the principal third-wave roasters in San Francisco and the East Bay -- all roast on site and offer espresso drinks, hand-drip coffees (usually made in a \u003ca href=\"http://shop.ritualcoffeeroasters.com/products/v-60\">Hario brewer\u003c/a> or even one of those $20,000 Clover machines) and beans by the pound. Oh, and rest assured that you are drinking seriously fresh coffee. Blue Bottle, Ritual and Sightglass roast daily and sell their beans within 48 hours, while Four Barrel roasts 5 times a week and sells fresh beans within 1-4 days of roasting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're interested in learning about coffee, you can take part in tastings, or cuppings as they're referred to, where you can talk to some very informed people about where the beans come from and how they're roasted, while of course getting to taste the merchandise yourself by slurping steeped coffee with a spoon (apparently this is the tried and true method of cupping coffee, but be sure not to wear your favorite outfit as there's a good chance you'll spill some on yourself). And, if you don't live near one of these coffee shops, most sell wholesale beans so the chances are pretty good that the independent cafe down the street, or a restaurant nearby, carries a local roast. You can also purchase these coffees at grocery stores -- \u003ca href=\"http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/\">Whole Foods\u003c/a> seems to have the biggest local selection -- or even online directly through each company's web site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was amazed to learn that Blue Bottle, Ritual and Four Barrel have actually created the budget and resources to seek out relationships with farmers all over the world to grow their beans. When I called Four Barrel, the owner was in Indonesia, visiting a farmer. These companies seem incredibly dedicated to finding the highest quality beans possible. Yet what's equally important to me as a consumer is that they are also dedicated to paying at least the fair trade price, and often far above. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following is a list of some of our local roasters. If you are a coffee lover, it's definitely worth seeking one or more out to experience the latest trend in Bay Area coffee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco and East Bay Coffee Roasters with Cafes and Outlets\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/wholesale/overview/\">\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Blue Bottle\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nBlue Bottle obtains its beans in three ways: from farmers at origin; through auctions; and through a network of U.S. brokers who have presences in particular growing regions. James Freeman, the owner of Blue Bottle, is dedicated to finding not only the highest quality beans, but paying more than fair trade for them. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Blue Bottle has various local cafés and kiosks. You can also go to their \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/locations/webster-st/\">roasting facility and café \u003c/a>in Oakland's Jack London Square area or their \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/locations/sfmoma/\">new café at SFMOMA\u003c/a>.

Afterward, I started wondering how many other coffee roasters there were in the Bay Area. I knew we had a few -- from \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a> to \u003ca href=\"http://www.caffetrieste.com/\">Caffé Trieste\u003c/a> -- but was surprised to find that we have a long and impressive history as a roasting capital. From James Folger selling freshly roasted beans to dusty and thirsty miners during the gold rush, to the new wave of single-origin roasters like \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual \u003c/a>and \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel\u003c/a>, the Bay Area has been at the epicenter of coffee roasting in the United States for over 160 years. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The story of James Folger is one of those classic gold rush tales where an entrepreneur makes his fortune selling a prized commodity instead of mining for gold. Because James was only 15 when he journeyed to the area with his brothers, he was deemed too young to mine. Lucky for him no one thought he was too young to sell coffee, which is what he did in the mining fields out near Nevada City. He then made his way further west where he worked in the first San Francisco coffee roastery on Powell Street, which he eventually bought and turned into the mega \u003ca href=\"http://www.folgers.com/\">Folgers\u003c/a>. \u003ca href=\"http://www.hillsbros.com/\">Hills Brothers\u003c/a> -- another local company -- was also part of that first wave of coffee purveyors in the U.S. making cups of American Joe for our grandparents and great grandparents. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's an understatement to say that the 50s and 60s were a time of change for San Francisco, but what you may not know is that coffee was an integral part of the culture dynamic at that time. Giovanni Giotta opened \u003ca href=\"http://www.caffetrieste.com/\">Caffé Trieste\u003c/a>, which started selling lovely dark European roasts in North Beach. In addition to becoming the local purveyor of coffee to the many Italian families in the area, his café was also the hot spot for people like \u003ca href=\"http://www.beatmuseum.org/kerouac/jackkerouac.html\">Jack Kerouac\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.poets.org/poet.php/prmPID/8\">Allen Ginsberg\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.citylights.com/ferlinghetti/\">Lawrence Ferlinghetti\u003c/a> (who, I hear, is still a regular). Where would American poetry and fiction be without Papa Giotta's coffee? It's also reported that Francis Ford Coppola wrote most of \u003ca href=\"http://www.scenariusze.stopklatka.pl/pdf/Godfather.pdf\">The Godfather script\u003c/a> (pdf) there. Then, in the 60s, \u003ca href=\"http://www.peets.com/who_we_are/history_vine.asp\">Alfred Peet started his now legendary store in North Berkeley\u003c/a>, where he roasted and sold small-batch single-origin and blended coffees to all those students, flower children, and protesters. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Blue Bottle Coffee and Sightglass Coffee Bar and Roastery\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https://www.flickr.com/photos/bayareabites/albums/72157624481318373\" title=\"Bay Area Coffee Roasters\">\u003cimg src=\"https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4144/4839154993_a09bc94253_b.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"669\" alt=\"Bay Area Coffee Roasters\">\u003c/a>\u003cscript async src=\"//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\">\u003c/script>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Photos by Wendy Goodfriend\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

These roasts are often lighter than what you'd find elsewhere, the philosophy being that roasting for each bean's unique flavors reveals the innate natural essence inside them. Much like wine, hints of spices, fruits and herbs emerge under the right conditions. When I heard this, I thought fine, but really how much of these can you taste? It wasn't until I had an amazing cup of hand-dripped \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual\u003c/a> coffee at \u003ca href=\"http://remedyoakland.com/\">Remedy\u003c/a>-- a new café in Oakland -- that I became a true believer. That cup of coffee was actually so good I decided not to add my normal allotment of milk and just sat there, savoring the subtle hints of plum and chocolate arising from my cup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This new wave of coffee roasters seems a direct response to the Frappuccino world of Starbucks. From baristas to roasters, people associated with these cafes and roasting facilities seem obsessed with the craft and art of making the perfect cup of coffee. Whipped cream and hazelnut flavoring have no place in these establishments -- these places are in business to sell coffee to customers who can appreciate the difference between a single-origin Guatamalan and a Sumatran blend. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many are neighborhood cafes that roast on the premises. Companies like \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual Roasters\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel Coffee\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sightglasscoffee.com/\">Sightglass Coffee Bar and Roastery\u003c/a> -- which are the principal third-wave roasters in San Francisco and the East Bay -- all roast on site and offer espresso drinks, hand-drip coffees (usually made in a \u003ca href=\"http://shop.ritualcoffeeroasters.com/products/v-60\">Hario brewer\u003c/a> or even one of those $20,000 Clover machines) and beans by the pound. Oh, and rest assured that you are drinking seriously fresh coffee. Blue Bottle, Ritual and Sightglass roast daily and sell their beans within 48 hours, while Four Barrel roasts 5 times a week and sells fresh beans within 1-4 days of roasting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're interested in learning about coffee, you can take part in tastings, or cuppings as they're referred to, where you can talk to some very informed people about where the beans come from and how they're roasted, while of course getting to taste the merchandise yourself by slurping steeped coffee with a spoon (apparently this is the tried and true method of cupping coffee, but be sure not to wear your favorite outfit as there's a good chance you'll spill some on yourself). And, if you don't live near one of these coffee shops, most sell wholesale beans so the chances are pretty good that the independent cafe down the street, or a restaurant nearby, carries a local roast. You can also purchase these coffees at grocery stores -- \u003ca href=\"http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/\">Whole Foods\u003c/a> seems to have the biggest local selection -- or even online directly through each company's web site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was amazed to learn that Blue Bottle, Ritual and Four Barrel have actually created the budget and resources to seek out relationships with farmers all over the world to grow their beans. When I called Four Barrel, the owner was in Indonesia, visiting a farmer. These companies seem incredibly dedicated to finding the highest quality beans possible. Yet what's equally important to me as a consumer is that they are also dedicated to paying at least the fair trade price, and often far above. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following is a list of some of our local roasters. If you are a coffee lover, it's definitely worth seeking one or more out to experience the latest trend in Bay Area coffee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco and East Bay Coffee Roasters with Cafes and Outlets\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/wholesale/overview/\">\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Blue Bottle\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nBlue Bottle obtains its beans in three ways: from farmers at origin; through auctions; and through a network of U.S. brokers who have presences in particular growing regions. James Freeman, the owner of Blue Bottle, is dedicated to finding not only the highest quality beans, but paying more than fair trade for them. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Blue Bottle has various local cafés and kiosks. You can also go to their \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/locations/webster-st/\">roasting facility and café \u003c/a>in Oakland's Jack London Square area or their \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/locations/sfmoma/\">new café at SFMOMA\u003c/a>.
