Her fermented products comes in four different flavors, including mushroom and chicken, to be used in soups and sauces. She originally brought the fermenting rice and Barley \u003cem>koji\u003c/em> seeds from Japan, where she had a 30-year career as a singer and dancer with the prestigious modern theatrical dance group she founded, Pappa Tarahumara. They performed around the world, and 16 years ago, had a one-night show in San Francisco. The man who would become her husband was in the audience. She soon joined him in San Francisco, often returning to Tokyo to rehearse. But after the earthquake and tsunami hit Japan in 2011, her company disbanded. \"It was very difficult to get enough money from the government, \" she says, \"and every member of the company decided to reset their life.\" Grady focused on nourishing her family and creating a line of fermented products that she sells online, at local Bay Area stores and at the \u003ca href=\"https://cuesa.org/markets/ferry-plaza-farmers-market-saturday\">Ferry Plaza Farmers Market\u003c/a>. She began at La Cocina in 2012 and named her business after her son, Aedon. (Written in Kanji characters, the name means \"wisdom\" and \"handed down from generation to generation.\") Grady says she listens to her body carefully – both when to perform and when to make miso. Her fermented products are \"also full of wisdom about how to relate to nature and how to create a healthy life,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Aisan Hoss And Mehdi Parnia, \u003ca href=\"https://www.oynanaturalfoods.com/\">Oyna Natural Foods\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133964\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1179\" class=\"size-full wp-image-133964\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85.jpg 1600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-160x118.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-800x590.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-768x566.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-1020x752.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-1200x884.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aisan Hoss with her husband and business partner, Mehdi Parnia, hold their 3-month-old daughter, Selma, as they sell their homemade kukus at the Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market. \u003ccite>(Mandalit del Barco)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In post-revolutionary Iran, authorities can prosecute someone for any form of dancing they deem \"indecent\" or \"immoral.\" So from the age of 12, Aisan Hoss had to dance in private studios, and Mehdi Parnia had to listen to his favorite band, Metallica, only in secret.

For now, you can find her at La Cocina, cooking \u003cem>chilito de puerco\u003c/em> and other delicacies from her native Oaxaca. Martinez grew up in a rural Mexican village in Oaxaca, where her father worked mining stones from the river. Her mother sold homemade tamales and other food in the town plaza. Martinez left to study in Acapulco, then moved to Texas. She says she crossed the U.S.-Mexico border several times to care for her ailing father and mother and to bring her American-born children to meet them. Her final crossing was the most harrowing. Martinez remembers being crammed into a big truck's hidden metal box, with 20 other people. \"It was really, really scary. We could not move,\" she recalls. There wasn't much air to breathe. \"I thought I was going to die.\" Someone next to her fainted, and then a man offered her a sip of blue Gatorade. \"It was a miracle,\" she says, adding that since then, she's had other miracles: getting her green card, then her U.S. citizenship, and buying a home in San Francisco. Martinez started at La Cocina in 2016 and now caters and sells her food at farmer's markets while she saves up for her own restaurant one day.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Shani Jones, \u003c/strong>\u003ca href=\"https://peachespatties.com/\">\u003cstrong>Peaches Patties\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133966\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"Shani Jones and her husband, Yeheyis Bedada, sell Jamaican patties at their kiosk in San Francisco's Bernal Heights neighborhood.\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1199\" class=\"size-full wp-image-133966\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85.jpg 1600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-1020x764.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-1200x899.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shani Jones and her husband, Yeheyis Bedada, sell Jamaican patties at their kiosk in San Francisco's Bernal Heights neighborhood. \u003ccite>(Mandalit del Barco)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Shani Jones is a native San Franciscan.

Her fermented products comes in four different flavors, including mushroom and chicken, to be used in soups and sauces. She originally brought the fermenting rice and Barley \u003cem>koji\u003c/em> seeds from Japan, where she had a 30-year career as a singer and dancer with the prestigious modern theatrical dance group she founded, Pappa Tarahumara. They performed around the world, and 16 years ago, had a one-night show in San Francisco. The man who would become her husband was in the audience. She soon joined him in San Francisco, often returning to Tokyo to rehearse. But after the earthquake and tsunami hit Japan in 2011, her company disbanded. \"It was very difficult to get enough money from the government, \" she says, \"and every member of the company decided to reset their life.\" Grady focused on nourishing her family and creating a line of fermented products that she sells online, at local Bay Area stores and at the \u003ca href=\"https://cuesa.org/markets/ferry-plaza-farmers-market-saturday\">Ferry Plaza Farmers Market\u003c/a>. She began at La Cocina in 2012 and named her business after her son, Aedon. (Written in Kanji characters, the name means \"wisdom\" and \"handed down from generation to generation.\") Grady says she listens to her body carefully – both when to perform and when to make miso. Her fermented products are \"also full of wisdom about how to relate to nature and how to create a healthy life,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Aisan Hoss And Mehdi Parnia, \u003ca href=\"https://www.oynanaturalfoods.com/\">Oyna Natural Foods\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133964\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1179\" class=\"size-full wp-image-133964\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85.jpg 1600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-160x118.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-800x590.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-768x566.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-1020x752.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/aisan-_-mehdi_-daughter_custom-715f5cbd163f1519a23cfe5961125a9ca1675c12-s1600-c85-1200x884.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aisan Hoss with her husband and business partner, Mehdi Parnia, hold their 3-month-old daughter, Selma, as they sell their homemade kukus at the Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market. \u003ccite>(Mandalit del Barco)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In post-revolutionary Iran, authorities can prosecute someone for any form of dancing they deem \"indecent\" or \"immoral.\" So from the age of 12, Aisan Hoss had to dance in private studios, and Mehdi Parnia had to listen to his favorite band, Metallica, only in secret.

For now, you can find her at La Cocina, cooking \u003cem>chilito de puerco\u003c/em> and other delicacies from her native Oaxaca. Martinez grew up in a rural Mexican village in Oaxaca, where her father worked mining stones from the river. Her mother sold homemade tamales and other food in the town plaza. Martinez left to study in Acapulco, then moved to Texas. She says she crossed the U.S.-Mexico border several times to care for her ailing father and mother and to bring her American-born children to meet them. Her final crossing was the most harrowing. Martinez remembers being crammed into a big truck's hidden metal box, with 20 other people. \"It was really, really scary. We could not move,\" she recalls. There wasn't much air to breathe. \"I thought I was going to die.\" Someone next to her fainted, and then a man offered her a sip of blue Gatorade. \"It was a miracle,\" she says, adding that since then, she's had other miracles: getting her green card, then her U.S. citizenship, and buying a home in San Francisco. Martinez started at La Cocina in 2016 and now caters and sells her food at farmer's markets while she saves up for her own restaurant one day.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Shani Jones, \u003c/strong>\u003ca href=\"https://peachespatties.com/\">\u003cstrong>Peaches Patties\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133966\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"Shani Jones and her husband, Yeheyis Bedada, sell Jamaican patties at their kiosk in San Francisco's Bernal Heights neighborhood.\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1199\" class=\"size-full wp-image-133966\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85.jpg 1600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-1020x764.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/06/shanti-jones_custom-1ffcb114dec1e8a15903db880a04d53bc7cd694c-s1600-c85-1200x899.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shani Jones and her husband, Yeheyis Bedada, sell Jamaican patties at their kiosk in San Francisco's Bernal Heights neighborhood. \u003ccite>(Mandalit del Barco)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Shani Jones is a native San Franciscan.

One of his team’s first projects to promote Filipino culture, food and art was a carefully curated night market festival called UNDISCOVERED SF that first launched in August 2017. It became a monthly summer festival, but, if you look at UNDISCOVERED SF’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/undiscoveredsf/\">social media presence\u003c/a> today, you’ll see that is has been taken over by a special event called Kulinary Confidential.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked for more details, Danganan explained, “Kulinary Confidential is a delicious way to explore the incredible Filipino food scene that exists in our city. The Bay Area is home to the largest population of Filipinos in the country, and there’s so much undiscovered culinary talent here. These chefs are pushing the boundaries of Filipino cuisine and reinterpreting it a uniquely Filipino-American perspective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133043\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1600px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-133043\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/KC-W1_Mystery-Bag_Sarap-Shop_credit-Albert-Law.jpg\" alt=\"Sarap Shop’s Mystery bag will include their signature Halo Halo Milk Tea and a mystery flavor of onigiri.\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1068\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/KC-W1_Mystery-Bag_Sarap-Shop_credit-Albert-Law.jpg 1600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/KC-W1_Mystery-Bag_Sarap-Shop_credit-Albert-Law-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/KC-W1_Mystery-Bag_Sarap-Shop_credit-Albert-Law-800x534.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/KC-W1_Mystery-Bag_Sarap-Shop_credit-Albert-Law-768x513.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/KC-W1_Mystery-Bag_Sarap-Shop_credit-Albert-Law-1020x681.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/KC-W1_Mystery-Bag_Sarap-Shop_credit-Albert-Law-1200x801.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sarap Shop’s Mystery bag will include their signature Halo Halo Milk Tea and a mystery flavor of onigiri. \u003ccite>(Albert Law)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>With participation from 7 restaurants and 16 chefs, this two-week affair will showcase the vibrant flavors of the Philippines through two self-guided food crawls featuring secret, off-menu dishes chosen by the chefs themselves.

After all, what better way to learn about another culture than through their cuisine? Plus, each week has a different lineup of participating restaurants and secret dishes to keep things fresh.

Additionally, there are organizations like\u003ca href=\"https://womenchefs.org/\"> Women Chefs & Restaurateurs\u003c/a> and the \u003ca href=\"https://www.jamesbeard.org/womens-entrepreneurial-leadership-program\">James Beard Foundation's Women Entrepreneurial Leadership Program\u003c/a> that have been working to give more women resources to start their own restaurants and companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Women’s History Month, you can help these local, hardworking women by putting your money where your mouth is and going to support a female-led or owned business.

Mary Novak took over the vineyard after her husband’s death in 1977 and successfully completed her first harvest soon after, selling grapes to local vintners. Her daughters joined Novak (Beth in 1987 and Lindy in 1992) and, together, the trio established Spottswoode as one of Napa Valley’s most esteemed multigenerational family estates. They are known for their Cabernet Sauvignon, and, according to Check, Please!

Today, Beth is Spottswoode’s President & CEO, and Lindy is its Marketing Ambassador.

A holy candle rests on his dashboard; a rosary hangs from the rearview mirror. \u003ccite>(Jasmine Garsd/NPR)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The hotel restaurant where Ibarra works as a food runner boasts creative, artisanal and healthy meals. People in the San Francisco Bay Area are known for being foodies (the city now has the \u003ca href=\"https://abc7news.com/food/record-breaking-year-for-michelin-starred-restaurants-in-san-francisco/4792454/\">most Michelin three-star restaurants\u003c/a> in the U.S.).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But behind kitchen doors, tension has been stewing for years: Service industry workers like Ibarra say they can no longer afford to live in the Bay Area on their wages. And restaurant owners say the high cost of life has made it hard to retain staff, and even to stay in business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area is notoriously expensive. As the tech industry grows, rents have soared. A one-bedroom apartment costs well over $3,000 a month. The minimum wage just went up to \u003ca href=\"https://sfgov.org/olse/minimum-wage-ordinance-mwo\">$15 an hour\u003c/a>, but the cost of living also keeps rising.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ibarra makes around $15 an hour. He used to commute from neighboring San Jose, one of the most expensive cities in the country. He paid $800 a month for a room, but just slept there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When traffic was bad, the drive back from work could take as much as three hours. \"You would go bumper-to-bumper, bumper-to-bumper sometimes. You get crazy,\" Ibarra says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He considered renting near work. But he couldn't afford it. He figured he was already spending as much as four hours a day in the car, so he might as well just sleep there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plight of low-wage workers like Ibarra is affecting the restaurant business. Just last year, \u003ca href=\"https://sf.eater.com/2017/9/22/16352884/restaurants-bars-closed-fall-2018-san-francisco-bay-area\">several high-profile eateries shut down.\u003c/a> One of them was Camino, known for its wood-fired cuisine. Co-owner Allison Hopelain says the restaurant took a major hit when its chef moved to Seattle because he couldn't afford to live in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[He] felt like he would have better opportunities there in terms of opening his own place, buying a home,\" Hopelain says. She says things started unraveling when he left. Last year, after about a decade in business, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/restaurants/article/Say-goodbye-to-Camino-a-restaurant-too-special-13455156.php\">Camino closed\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hopelain went on to open The Kebabery in Oakland. It's a small, cafeteria-style joint. You just pick your food and find a table. She says it's a much more affordable business model, but she also thinks it's what a lot of customers want.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Decades ago, eating out was a special occasion, but these days Hopelain says people want to grab a quick, affordable bite of good food, and head back to their lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132835\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132835\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922.jpg\" alt=\"Allison Hopelain, owner of The Kebabery in Oakland, Calif., says the cafeteria-style restaurant reflects the changing tastes of customers who now want to grab a quick, affordable meal and head back to their lives.\" width=\"640\" height=\"623\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922-160x156.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922-50x50.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Allison Hopelain, owner of The Kebabery in Oakland, Calif., says the cafeteria-style restaurant reflects the changing tastes of customers who now want to grab a quick, affordable meal and head back to their lives. \u003ccite>(Allison Hopelain/Courtesy of The Kebabery)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>A few minutes north of Oakland, Peter Levitt says his restaurant, with waiters, hosts and food runners, is part of a dying breed. \"Your old diners with booths and breakfast and lunch table service.

People in the San Francisco Bay Area are known for being foodies (the city now has the \u003ca href=\"https://abc7news.com/food/record-breaking-year-for-michelin-starred-restaurants-in-san-francisco/4792454/\">most Michelin three-star restaurants\u003c/a> in the U.S.).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But behind kitchen doors, tension has been stewing for years: Service industry workers like Ibarra say they can no longer afford to live in the Bay Area on their wages. And restaurant owners say the high cost of life has made it hard to retain staff, and even to stay in business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area is notoriously expensive. As the tech industry grows, rents have soared. A one-bedroom apartment costs well over $3,000 a month. The minimum wage just went up to \u003ca href=\"https://sfgov.org/olse/minimum-wage-ordinance-mwo\">$15 an hour\u003c/a>, but the cost of living also keeps rising.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He paid $800 a month for a room, but just slept there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When traffic was bad, the drive back from work could take as much as three hours. \"You would go bumper-to-bumper, bumper-to-bumper sometimes. You get crazy,\" Ibarra says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He considered renting near work. But he couldn't afford it. He figured he was already spending as much as four hours a day in the car, so he might as well just sleep there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plight of low-wage workers like Ibarra is affecting the restaurant business. Just last year, \u003ca href=\"https://sf.eater.com/2017/9/22/16352884/restaurants-bars-closed-fall-2018-san-francisco-bay-area\">several high-profile eateries shut down.\u003c/a> One of them was Camino, known for its wood-fired cuisine. Co-owner Allison Hopelain says the restaurant took a major hit when its chef moved to Seattle because he couldn't afford to live in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[He] felt like he would have better opportunities there in terms of opening his own place, buying a home,\" Hopelain says. She says things started unraveling when he left. Last year, after about a decade in business, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/restaurants/article/Say-goodbye-to-Camino-a-restaurant-too-special-13455156.php\">Camino closed\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hopelain went on to open The Kebabery in Oakland. It's a small, cafeteria-style joint. You just pick your food and find a table. She says it's a much more affordable business model, but she also thinks it's what a lot of customers want.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Decades ago, eating out was a special occasion, but these days Hopelain says people want to grab a quick, affordable bite of good food, and head back to their lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132835\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132835\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922.jpg\" alt=\"Allison Hopelain, owner of The Kebabery in Oakland, Calif., says the cafeteria-style restaurant reflects the changing tastes of customers who now want to grab a quick, affordable meal and head back to their lives.\" width=\"640\" height=\"623\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922-160x156.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/kitchen-1_custom-618f38170402def5c8b8bade8e884996486b4922-50x50.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Allison Hopelain, owner of The Kebabery in Oakland, Calif., says the cafeteria-style restaurant reflects the changing tastes of customers who now want to grab a quick, affordable meal and head back to their lives. \u003ccite>(Allison Hopelain/Courtesy of The Kebabery)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>A few minutes north of Oakland, Peter Levitt says his restaurant, with waiters, hosts and food runners, is part of a dying breed. \"Your old diners with booths and breakfast and lunch table service.

Before these tacos, Autlán de Navarro’s only claim to fame, known to me, was birthing Carlos Santana. The tacos brought the truck its second claim to fame: an Instagram photo showing that \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BmFOpqOh79A/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alexis Ohanian\u003c/a> brought Serena Williams there to chomp down! The truck is open late every day of the week to provide a much needed sponge of flavor to those stumbling out of the bar that the truck shares a parking lot with. This is also one of the only trucks to use yellow corn tortillas (it’s a bigger deal than you think).\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Nikko’s Family Restaurant\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/340+23rd+Ave,+Oakland,+CA+94606/@37.773379,-122.2378197,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x808f86ec8b346b5b:0x9b7256f535ec9085!8m2!3d37.773379!4d-122.235631\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">340 23rd Ave\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA\u003cbr>\n94606\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.instagram.com/p/BVIJt9ijIWV/\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Located in the middle of an incredibly busy and circular intersection, Nikko’s opened its doors in 1956. They’ve been serving the East Oakland community for 24 hours a day for over 60 years. That’s a lot of french fries. As one of two 24 hour non-chain restaurants in the entire East Bay (the other being \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">1/4 Lb Big Burger in Martinez), you get a parking lot, a chill environment and affordable prices. You’ll often find an interesting intersection of late night constituents from Oakland and Alameda, since the restaurant sits right at the entrance (or exit) of the Park Street bridge. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You’ll also find your model diner with a veneer counter and stools facing the kitchen. There’s several booths with vinyl seats. It’s best to leave any fresh leafy greens out of the equation for fear of disappointment —stick to things like their patty melts. Even better, try The San Franciscan: a beef patty on butter griddled sourdough bread slices with Swiss cheese and fried onions.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Rudy’s Can’t Fail Cafe\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Rudy's+Can't+Fail+Cafe/@37.8309642,-122.2881817,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x80857e1518030fc1:0xea496f32d455a58d!8m2!3d37.83096!4d-122.285993\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">4081 Hollis St\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nEmeryville, CA 94608\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.instagram.com/p/BkYL39HgQJ6/\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although the Oakland branch of \u003ca href=\"https://www.iamrudy.com/menu/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rudy’s\u003c/a> shuttered its doors in 2018, this Rudy’s seems to be undefeated as the Emeryville go-to during all hours of the night and day. Don’t even think about coming here on the weekends without standing in giant lines! There are some fun trivia facts about Rudy’s people will always tell you: first, the restaurant was named after the 1979 song Rudie Can't Fail by The Clash and second, co-owner Mike Dirnt, the Berkeley-born bassist for the band Green Day, help to establish the original Rudy's in 2002. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rudy’s extensive menu reminds you that not everything you eat late at night has to be soaked in grease. They offer some solid healthy options like grilled chicken salads and club sandwiches. But, make no mistake, you can still find those Americana classics: patty melts, fried chicken dinners and pie!\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Monkey King Pub & Grub\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/1315+Park+St,+Alameda,+CA+94501/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x808f86bdc2f73311:0x37db1cd6d034af1f?ved=2ahUKEwjvs_SOxb7gAhXLIDQIHVBvDiUQ8gEwAHoECAAQAQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1315 Park St\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nAlameda, CA 94501\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.instagram.com/p/BmRRBL1n4X9/\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It seems like Alameda shuts down early. With its popular bars like Forbidden Island Tiki Lounge (seen on HBO’s \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://siliconvalleyism.com/silicon-valley-filming-locations.php\">\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Silicon Valley\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">) and Lucky 13, patrons are bound to be on the lookout for some grub come last call. Opened in 2012, \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/checkplease/18204/check-please-bay-area-season-12-reviews-monkey-king-pub-and-grub-farmstead-at-long-meadow-ranch-grand-lake-kitchen\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Monkey King Pub & Grub\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> does the job with hours going as late as 2am. They’ll even deliver during all of their opening hours. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Monkey King Pub & Grub doesn’t seem to have any stand out dishes because it’s all so good! Their dried fried ribs seem to be just as popular as their jambalaya fried rice (add optional runny yolk), jambalaya noodles, garlic noodles and chicken wings. But, one of their more unique offerings are Disco Fries which are a uniquely New Jersey creation and can be seen on a lot of East Coast diner menus. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you happen to be around during regular humanoid hours, you can also visit their Monkey King at the Brewery, which has some different food options than the pub. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n",

They’ve been serving the East Oakland community for 24 hours a day for over 60 years. That’s a lot of french fries. As one of two 24 hour non-chain restaurants in the entire East Bay (the other being \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">1/4 Lb Big Burger in Martinez), you get a parking lot, a chill environment and affordable prices.

Or you get some storytelling: “Sandwich special inspired by singing karaoke in Korea Town and eating pierogi at Veselka around 3am in NY.

I loved my Dorothy Gene special: avocado, fresh ricotta, roasted sweet potato purée, arugula, poblano peppers, sunflower seeds, fresh lime, and olive oil in a spinach wrap ($10). I just threw in a little piri-piri sauce at home to spike it up, because that’s how I roll.

At \u003ca href=\"http://www.turnerskitchensf.com\">\u003cb>Turner’s Kitchen\u003c/b>\u003c/a> in the Mission, owner Ken Turner has got it all going on. He took over the former Clare’s Deli and opened Turner’s in its place in 2016, keeping Clare’s beloved French Dip on the menu (and fortunately keeping Bryce and Javier in the kitchen!). But the rest of the ever-evolving menu reveals his culinary background (he cooked at Zuni for seven years) and a love of seasonal vegetables, trips to the farmers’ market, making housemade sauces, and more.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you follow \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/turnerskitchensf/\">@turnerskitchensf\u003c/a> on Instagram, you’ll constantly see some of the most delicious-looking (and sounding) combinations he makes for the daily specials, like roasted eggplant, melted Fontina cheese, red sauce, and basil pesto on a toasted ciabatta roll. Or you get some storytelling: “Sandwich special inspired by singing karaoke in Korea Town and eating pierogi at Veselka around 3am in NY. Roast turkey, Munster cheese, wild arugula, house apple sauce (four types of apples, lots of butter, a little cinnamon, cider vinegar), sour cream, roasted garlic and fresh dill on sliced sourdough.” He even suggests chip and drink pairings in his posts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132660\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-132660\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/turners-sandwich-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Liberty Bell special, a California spin on a Philly cheesesteak. \u003ccite>(tablehopper.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Turner’s is known for their hot pastrami specials: the one pictured here was inspired by Philadelphia cheesesteak sandwiches, but with a little California influence: hot pastrami, melted Havarti (Swiss pictured here), roasted Brussels sprouts (in pastrami fat), sautéed sweet peppers, and lots of caramelized onions. I got there too late in the afternoon to have it on Dutch crunch, but my French roll from Panorama was fresh and held it all together.

From a meatless Monday–inspired Indian wrap, to this one: quinoa, roasted sweet potato purée, sautéed sweet peppers, roasted cauliflower, arugula, Gorgonzola, and house buffalo sauce in a spinach wrap — nope, vegetarians, vegans, and healthy eaters do not miss out here. I loved my Dorothy Gene special: avocado, fresh ricotta, roasted sweet potato purée, arugula, poblano peppers, sunflower seeds, fresh lime, and olive oil in a spinach wrap ($10). I just threw in a little piri-piri sauce at home to spike it up, because that’s how I roll. They also do some great soups, and there is always one that is vegetarian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Winners on their daily menu include the Mission Fig (applewood smoked ham, roast turkey, melted Swiss, arugula, cucumber, and fig-caramelized onion jam on sliced sourdough) and their Gobbler, which comes with smoked turkey, cranberry sauce, mustard-sage stuffing, and melted Brie. $12 for some mighty stellar sandwiches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A couple things to note: there are a few tables and counters (it’s a tiny spot), but you can always eat your sandwich in the 500 Club next door (and they’ll even deliver it to your bar stool!). Turner’s also just switched over to credit cards only, but you can buy a gift card for $20.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Two Mardi Gras Parties Where the Good Times Will Definitely Roll (and Are Unlimited)\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://albarays.com/\">Alba Ray's\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/u4KfLRMA6Hq\">2293 Mission St, San Francisco\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTuesday, March 5\u003cbr>\n6pm–11pm\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fat-tuesday-at-alba-rays-tickets-56765335647\">Tickets\u003c/a>: $85\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://albarays.com/bottomless-brunch\">Brunch\u003c/a> Sat–Sun; seatings 10am–2:30pm\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132663\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-132663\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/Fat-Tuesday_credit-Charlene-Fernandez-800x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alba Ray's will be celebrating Mardi Gras at brunch for the entire month of March. \u003ccite>(Charlene Fernandez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>San Francisco may be far from New Orleans, but our love of good food and parties means we don’t like to miss out on any Mardi Gras festivities.
