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.

This isn't buttoned-up fine dining; casual and family-friendly, the servers wear T-shirts and the staff is so nice it's as if they spike the air with tequila. Loud Mexican music emanates from the speakers, but even that gets drowned out by lively conversations between diners. A dinner bell that hangs from the open kitchen is rung periodically and frivolously, simply because it's fun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pink-walled restaurant has the look of a traditional taqueria, but this is Napa Valley, so it's rustic-chic, not a dive. Much of the decor was handpicked from Mexico, down to the hand-blown glassware and mismatched wooden chairs. A hand-painted mural brightens the bar area that seats 14; the bar top has a unique copper penny tiling. A large outdoor patio is set to flourish post-winter but for now, 86 seats fill the dining room and there's been a line out the door each night since the place opened at the start of the new year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132641\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 980px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132641\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5.jpg\" alt=\"La Calenda serves up a handful of large plates, like Puerco en Mole Verde.\" width=\"980\" height=\"1470\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5.jpg 980w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5-160x240.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5-800x1200.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5-768x1152.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">La Calenda serves up a handful of large plates, like Puerco en Mole Verde. \u003ccite>(David Escalante)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>At the heart of the restaurant is a large open kitchen. Diners can watch the culinary team hand-press tortillas—they press between 700 and 900 each day—and slice al pastor from a spinning rotisserie.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Chef\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Chef de Cuisine Kaelin Ulrich Trilling didn't come up the ranks of Keller's world. The idea of working for the decorated chef, let alone heading up one of his restaurants, was a mere pipe dream for the 26-year-old, who grew up in Oaxaca. His mother Susana Trilling, a celebrity chef in her own right, founded the renowned Seasons of My Heart Cooking School in Oaxaca and Trilling draws inspiration from several of her recipes, like the much talked about mole negro, an arduous, three-day process that utilizes roughly 30 ingredients and five types of chiles. \"When I make mole here and taste it, I close my eyes and it brings me back to my childhood every time,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most challenging part of the gig has been adapting Mexican cooking techniques to America's health department standards. Back home, Trilling makes mole with a bamboo stick and barbacoa is ceremoniously cooked all day in giant pits in the ground. At La Calenda he attempts to recreate the pit in the oven, wrapping the meat in avocado leaves and cooking it at 500 degrees for hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132637\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 980px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132637\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"Four different types of heirloom corn brought in from Mexico.\" width=\"980\" height=\"792\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1.jpg 980w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1-160x129.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1-800x647.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1-768x621.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Four different types of heirloom corn brought in from Mexico. \u003ccite>(David Escalante)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>The Food\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Like the decor, a majority of ingredients come directly from Mexico, including many types of heirloom corn—from blue to red to pink—sourced from varying regions. The team will also pluck herbs and produce from The French Laundry Culinary Garden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trilling has a story for every ingredient and every dish. Even the Caesar Salad, which seems out of place, has ties to Mexico: Legend has it that an Italian immigrant invented the recipe in Tijuana. Ironically, chips and salsa are actually an American tradition, but since stateside diners expect it, Trilling says he wants his to be the best. La Calenda serves six salsas total, my favorites being the habanero, which was well balanced and not as hot as one might expect, and avocado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting off strong, the cachete de res en mole chichilo ($13)—braised beef cheek and another one of Trilling's mother's recipes—and the quesadilla al pastor ($9), a taqueria staple in Mexico made here with pineapple and Chihuahua cheese, were both standouts of the meal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I tried all six tacos ($11-13 for two). The barbacoa and carnitas top my list; both meats were melt-in-your-mouth tender.

This isn't buttoned-up fine dining; casual and family-friendly, the servers wear T-shirts and the staff is so nice it's as if they spike the air with tequila. Loud Mexican music emanates from the speakers, but even that gets drowned out by lively conversations between diners. A dinner bell that hangs from the open kitchen is rung periodically and frivolously, simply because it's fun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pink-walled restaurant has the look of a traditional taqueria, but this is Napa Valley, so it's rustic-chic, not a dive. Much of the decor was handpicked from Mexico, down to the hand-blown glassware and mismatched wooden chairs. A hand-painted mural brightens the bar area that seats 14; the bar top has a unique copper penny tiling. A large outdoor patio is set to flourish post-winter but for now, 86 seats fill the dining room and there's been a line out the door each night since the place opened at the start of the new year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132641\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 980px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132641\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5.jpg\" alt=\"La Calenda serves up a handful of large plates, like Puerco en Mole Verde.\" width=\"980\" height=\"1470\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5.jpg 980w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5-160x240.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5-800x1200.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-5-768x1152.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">La Calenda serves up a handful of large plates, like Puerco en Mole Verde. \u003ccite>(David Escalante)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>At the heart of the restaurant is a large open kitchen.

The idea of working for the decorated chef, let alone heading up one of his restaurants, was a mere pipe dream for the 26-year-old, who grew up in Oaxaca. His mother Susana Trilling, a celebrity chef in her own right, founded the renowned Seasons of My Heart Cooking School in Oaxaca and Trilling draws inspiration from several of her recipes, like the much talked about mole negro, an arduous, three-day process that utilizes roughly 30 ingredients and five types of chiles. \"When I make mole here and taste it, I close my eyes and it brings me back to my childhood every time,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Back home, Trilling makes mole with a bamboo stick and barbacoa is ceremoniously cooked all day in giant pits in the ground. At La Calenda he attempts to recreate the pit in the oven, wrapping the meat in avocado leaves and cooking it at 500 degrees for hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132637\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 980px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132637\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"Four different types of heirloom corn brought in from Mexico.\" width=\"980\" height=\"792\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1.jpg 980w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1-160x129.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1-800x647.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-1-1-768x621.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Four different types of heirloom corn brought in from Mexico. \u003ccite>(David Escalante)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>The Food\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Like the decor, a majority of ingredients come directly from Mexico, including many types of heirloom corn—from blue to red to pink—sourced from varying regions. The team will also pluck herbs and produce from The French Laundry Culinary Garden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trilling has a story for every ingredient and every dish. Even the Caesar Salad, which seems out of place, has ties to Mexico: Legend has it that an Italian immigrant invented the recipe in Tijuana. Ironically, chips and salsa are actually an American tradition, but since stateside diners expect it, Trilling says he wants his to be the best. La Calenda serves six salsas total, my favorites being the habanero, which was well balanced and not as hot as one might expect, and avocado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting off strong, the cachete de res en mole chichilo ($13)—braised beef cheek and another one of Trilling's mother's recipes—and the quesadilla al pastor ($9), a taqueria staple in Mexico made here with pineapple and Chihuahua cheese, were both standouts of the meal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I tried all six tacos ($11-13 for two). The barbacoa and carnitas top my list; both meats were melt-in-your-mouth tender. With the exception of the Caesar salad croutons and desserts, the entire menu is gluten-free and there are plenty of vegetarian options as well, including a butternut squash tamale wrapped in an avocado leaf ($6) and mushroom tacos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132639\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 980px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132639\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-3-1.jpg\" alt=\"The menu features two types of tamals, one with butternut squash.\" width=\"980\" height=\"1470\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-3-1.jpg 980w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-3-1-160x240.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-3-1-800x1200.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/02/980x-3-1-768x1152.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The menu features two types of tamals, one with butternut squash. \u003ccite>(David Escalante)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>For dessert ($9), you can't go wrong with the churros or the tres leches cake, which for once, isn't too dry.

While many markets have become year-round affairs, offering local produce and baked goods all months, there's no question that in the summer the wealth of homegrown bounty overflows. With so many farms and ranches in the North Bay, the markets in Marin, Sonoma, and Napa are among the best in the Bay Area. They range from small, produce-focused set-ups to huge events attended by everyone in the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the markets also accept EBT (electronic benefit transfer), California's version of food stamps. In fact, most of the markets also offer a \"market match,\" meaning that those who spend their EBT dollars on fresh produce or meats will get extra money to spend while there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking to shop fresh and local? It doesn't get more local, fresh, or tasty than many of these markets. Start with these, some of our favorites in the North Bay: from the small jewel in Healdsburg to the third-biggest market in the state right in San Rafael. If we missed your favorite on the north side of the Golden Gate, just let us know in the comments. \u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>MARIN\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"98488,98487,98486,98485,98489,98490\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Point Reyes Farmers Market \u003c/strong>holds the title of being the first 100% certified organic farmers market in the Bay Area. Although it's fairly small, with just 22 vendors and only a handful of produce stalls, the quality is top-notch. That shouldn't come as much surprise, since Point Reyes itself is situated in the heartland of Marin farms. Along with produce, the market is home to a number of local merchants, who sell bread, flowers, and even animal hides. While the market is primarily focused on food, and often merges with the foods on sale inside Toby's Feed Barn, there are also kids programs in the garden, book giveaways once per month, and music for the adults. At 11 a.m., local chefs do demonstrations using food from the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pointreyesfarmersmarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Point Reyes Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nToby's Feed Barn parking lot [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/KnSxha\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\n11250 CA-1\u003cbr>\nPoint Reyes Station, CA 94956\u003cbr>\nHours: Saturday, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. in summer, starting in June\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: 22 vendors\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes, market match - spend $10 and get $10 extra\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pointreyesfarmersmarket\" target=\"_blank\">Point Reyes Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/prfm\" target=\"_blank\">@prfm\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/ptreyesfm/\" target=\"_blank\">ptreyesfm\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" size=\"full\" ids=\"98343,98349,98344,98345,98346,98347,98348\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Started over 30 years ago, the \u003cstrong>Marin Farmers Market\u003c/strong> is now the third biggest farmers market in the state. Held in the parking lot behind the Civic Center in San Rafael, the market is so popular that Marin County voted to approve a permanent home for the farmers to sell their wares on a rotating basis. (Funds still have to be raised for the new home to be completed next year.) While the Agricultural Institute of Marin (AIM) runs both a Thursday and Sunday morning market at the Civic Center, it's the weekend event that draws the massive crowds. Of the 240 vendors, over half are agricultural, but there are also craft tents as you enter by the kids area and prepared food tents/trucks -- a sandwich from \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/thefarmerswifesonoma\" target=\"_blank\">The Farmer's Wife\u003c/a> will fuel your shopping. About 50% of the agricultural vendors are certified organic, according to AIM, and most are from the Marin-Napa-Sonoma area. The Institute also began running an audit program, where it verifies that everything each farmer says they grow, they actually grow. While the specific make-up of the market varies with the seasons and weekends, you can always find top-quality produce, meat, cheese, and interesting prepared foods, like baked goods, olive oils, and honey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://agriculturalinstitute.org/directory/listing-details/sunday-san-rafael-market/\" target=\"_blank\">Marin Sunday Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot behind the San Rafael Civic Center [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/UQCyJ0\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nCivic Center Dr, San Rafael, CA 94903\u003cbr>\nHours: Sunday, 8 a.m.-1 p.m. year-round\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: Around 240\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes, market match - spend $20 and get $10 extra\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/MarinFarmersMarkets\" target=\"_blank\">Marin Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/eatlocal101\" target=\"_blank\">@EatLocal101\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/aim_farmers_markets/\" target=\"_blank\">AIM_farmers_markets\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"98503,98493,98492,98494,98495,98496,98497,98498,98499,98500,98501,98502\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across from the Golden Gate Ferry terminal in Larkspur, the \u003cstrong>Marin Country Mart Farmers Market\u003c/strong> runs every Saturday in the shopping center's parking lot. Though it briefly went on hiatus when the shopping center changed ownership in the late-2000s, the market has grown to include a number of organic and sustainable produce vendors. It also has baked goods, like the breads from Rustic Bakery, which has a store location inside the shopping center, and prepared items like donuts and sandwiches. The popular \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanfranciscocrabshipping.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Seafood\u003c/a> may be the most-visited stall; it typically has a line around its tent. If it hasn't sold out by the time you get there, try their smoked salmon.

While the market is relatively small, much of the town comes out to enjoy the music and have dinner from one of the food tents. Lagunitas Brewing Company also offers a beer tasting, so you can make a night of it. Some chairs and small tables are provided, but you can also bring your own blanket. Oh, and while you're enjoying your evening, you might as well buy some food from local farmers too. A handful of local organic produce vendors sell their wares. There's also a range of bakery items, including gluten-free cookies and brownies.

It started with just a handful of local farmers selling their products 37 years ago, but has grown and has been in its current form for the last decade. The Wednesday evening market takes place at the parking lot on North Street, between Grove and Foss Streets, with the Saturday morning market across the street. Even after all these years, the focus is still on the farmers and the produce. The market doesn't have much in terms of the ancillary bells and whistles that some of the more festival-like markets boast. In fact, the organization's bylaws allow it to have only five non-food or non-agriculture booths out of its 60 vendors. Those five currently include ceramics and salvaged wood pieces. While only about four of the vendors are certified organic, nearly all of them come from within a 10-mile radius of the market. This is as local as it gets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.healdsburgfarmersmarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Healdsburg Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nSaturday market takes place at the corner of North and Vine, the Wednesday markets are across the street [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/nG92br\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nVine St & W North St, Healdsburg, CA 95448\u003cbr>\nHours: Saturday, 8:30 a.m.-noon May-November; Wednesday, 4-7 p.m. June-October\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: 60 vendors\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes, market match - up to $20\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/HealdsburgFarmMarket?ref=hl\" target=\"_blank\">Healdsburg Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"98552,98551,98549,98550\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until it moved to the Wells Fargo Center for the Arts a few years ago, the \u003cstrong>Santa Rosa Original Certified Farmers Market\u003c/strong> took place weekly at the Veterans Building for over 40 years. Another market, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.wednesdaynightmarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Wednesday Night Market\u003c/a>, offers more of a summer community event as an alternative to the morning farmers markets at Wells Fargo. The year-round market at the Wells Fargo Center has about 70 vendors, depending on the seasons, and about half of those are agricultural vendors. Since the market has been around for so long, most of the vendors have been there for years. Even the newest sellers have been at the Santa Rosa market for about three years. Some of the stone fruits come from as far away as Modesto -- they simply don't grow up here -- but the majority of produce is from Sonoma County. And you can be sure as soon as crowd favorites, like strawberries or avocados, come in season, they disappear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://thesantarosafarmersmarket.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Original Certified Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot at the Wells Fargo Center for the Arts [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/P7xruY\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\n50 Mark West Springs Rd\u003cbr>\nSanta Rosa, CA 95403\u003cbr>\nHours: Wednesday and Saturday, 8:30 a.m.-1 p.m. year-round\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: 68-75 vendors, rotating\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/santarosacommunityfarmersmarket\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Community Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SantaRosaFrmMkt\" target=\"_blank\">@SantaRosaFrmMkt\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" ids=\"98519,98529,98527,98528,98526,98523,98524,98520,98525,98521,98522\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Petaluma has three different farmers markets, the \u003cstrong>Petaluma East-Side Farmers Market\u003c/strong> is the newest and the only year-round market in town. The community farmers market group also runs the older summer markets in Walnut Park and on Wednesday evenings in the Petaluma Theater District. But a few years ago, the city wanted to expand the number of events and opportunities on the east side of town. The East-Side Market runs in the parking lot next to a shopping center, with a handful of local Sonoma-sourced produce vendors. About one-third of those vendors are certified organic. The draw of the market includes other services and vendors like food trucks, chiropractic services, and craft items.

Years ago the Sonoma markets split and the town now has two -- one that's more of \u003ca href=\"http://www.sonomaplazamarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">an evening festival\u003c/a> and one that's smaller and without as many frills. This is the frill-free one that's more about the fresh food. Most of the produce is from Sonoma County or nearby, including the selection from Paul's Produce and Oak Hill Farm. Some of the farms have even been coming to the market through multiple generations, as the original farmer's kids have taken over. While nearly half the vendors are agricultural, only a handful are organic. Along with selling their food here, some of them also sell to restaurants. Spring Hill, for example, sells its organic cheeses and butters to Chipotle, but you can also find many of the vendors' produce at more classic establishments. While you're there, just follow your nose to get some warm fresh bread from \u003ca href=\"http://www.thebejkr.com/\" target=\"_blank\">The Bejkr\u003c/a> to go with your produce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.svcfm.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Sonoma Valley Certified Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot at Arnold Field [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/Q5MHSe\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\n241 West First Street, Sonoma, CA, 94999\u003cbr>\nHours: Friday, 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m. year-round\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: 33-36 vendors\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/SVCFM/\" target=\"_blank\">Sonoma Valley Certified Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"98553,98556,98554,98555,98558,98560,98561,98562\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While this community event has been around for about 25 years, when the two Sonoma markets split a number of years ago, the \u003cstrong>Valley of the Moon Certified Farmers Market\u003c/strong> took over as the fun evening festival market. Located right on the plaza lawn by City Hall, the Tuesday evening market is so popular you might have to get there early to claim a good spot in the grass by the band. But it's not just food trucks and goodies for the kids. The adults will enjoy the local produce stands. About one-third of the 60 vendors are farmers and around 20% of those are certified organic. Just remember to buy your produce before you start having too much fun dancing to the top-notch entertainment or cheering on the zucchini races.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.sonomaplazamarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Sonoma Valley of the Moon Certified Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nCity Hall Plaza [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/lrYLRw\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nNo.1 The Plaza\u003cbr>\nSonoma, CA 95476\u003cbr>\nHours: Tuesday, 5:30 p.m.-dusk May-end of September\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: About 55-60\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Valley-of-the-Moon-Certified-Farmers-Market/486196241421991?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Valley of the Moon Certified Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/vomcfm\" target=\"_blank\">@vomcfm\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>NAPA\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"98512,98513,98511,98514,98517,98516,98515,98518\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For about two decades, the \u003cstrong>Napa Farmers Market\u003c/strong> has been a place for locals to sell what they grow and make. And, given the farmland in the area, you know it has to be good. The Tuesday farmers market is slightly smaller, but on Saturdays the parking lot across from the popular Oxbow Public Market is the place to be. Try the whiskey-smoked brown sugar or the Wine Country Chocolates. But don't worry: most of the food is more health-conscious than sugar and chocolate. About one-third of the vendors are farmers, selling what they themselves grow. There are only four or five certified organic produce farms, but many of the farms use a number of sustainable practices. While you walk the aisles to find exactly what you're looking for, the kids can enjoy story time at 10 a.m. and a kids' education program the first Saturday of the month. For the adults, there are also chef demonstrations on the second and fourth Saturdays.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://napafarmersmarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Napa Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot across from the Oxbow Public Market [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/RD84tE\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\n610 1st St\u003cbr>\nNapa, CA 94559\u003cbr>\nHours: Tuesdays and Saturdays, 8 a.m.-12:30 p.m. April 15-Nov. 21\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: Over 100, with about 60-70 on Saturdays\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes, market match - spend $10 and get $10 extra\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/NapaFarmersMarket\" target=\"_blank\">Napa Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/napafarmersmkt/\" target=\"_blank\">napafarmersmkt\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\n",

It was updated April 28, 2017.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's that time of year: farmers market season. While many markets have become year-round affairs, offering local produce and baked goods all months, there's no question that in the summer the wealth of homegrown bounty overflows. With so many farms and ranches in the North Bay, the markets in Marin, Sonoma, and Napa are among the best in the Bay Area. They range from small, produce-focused set-ups to huge events attended by everyone in the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the markets also accept EBT (electronic benefit transfer), California's version of food stamps. In fact, most of the markets also offer a \"market match,\" meaning that those who spend their EBT dollars on fresh produce or meats will get extra money to spend while there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking to shop fresh and local? It doesn't get more local, fresh, or tasty than many of these markets. Start with these, some of our favorites in the North Bay: from the small jewel in Healdsburg to the third-biggest market in the state right in San Rafael. If we missed your favorite on the north side of the Golden Gate, just let us know in the comments. \u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>MARIN\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Although it's fairly small, with just 22 vendors and only a handful of produce stalls, the quality is top-notch. That shouldn't come as much surprise, since Point Reyes itself is situated in the heartland of Marin farms. Along with produce, the market is home to a number of local merchants, who sell bread, flowers, and even animal hides. While the market is primarily focused on food, and often merges with the foods on sale inside Toby's Feed Barn, there are also kids programs in the garden, book giveaways once per month, and music for the adults. At 11 a.m., local chefs do demonstrations using food from the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Held in the parking lot behind the Civic Center in San Rafael, the market is so popular that Marin County voted to approve a permanent home for the farmers to sell their wares on a rotating basis. (Funds still have to be raised for the new home to be completed next year.) While the Agricultural Institute of Marin (AIM) runs both a Thursday and Sunday morning market at the Civic Center, it's the weekend event that draws the massive crowds. Of the 240 vendors, over half are agricultural, but there are also craft tents as you enter by the kids area and prepared food tents/trucks -- a sandwich from \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/thefarmerswifesonoma\" target=\"_blank\">The Farmer's Wife\u003c/a> will fuel your shopping. About 50% of the agricultural vendors are certified organic, according to AIM, and most are from the Marin-Napa-Sonoma area. The Institute also began running an audit program, where it verifies that everything each farmer says they grow, they actually grow. While the specific make-up of the market varies with the seasons and weekends, you can always find top-quality produce, meat, cheese, and interesting prepared foods, like baked goods, olive oils, and honey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://agriculturalinstitute.org/directory/listing-details/sunday-san-rafael-market/\" target=\"_blank\">Marin Sunday Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot behind the San Rafael Civic Center [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/UQCyJ0\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nCivic Center Dr, San Rafael, CA 94903\u003cbr>\nHours: Sunday, 8 a.m.-1 p.m. year-round\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: Around 240\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes, market match - spend $20 and get $10 extra\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/MarinFarmersMarkets\" target=\"_blank\">Marin Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/eatlocal101\" target=\"_blank\">@EatLocal101\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/aim_farmers_markets/\" target=\"_blank\">AIM_farmers_markets\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The popular \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanfranciscocrabshipping.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Seafood\u003c/a> may be the most-visited stall; it typically has a line around its tent.

It started with just a handful of local farmers selling their products 37 years ago, but has grown and has been in its current form for the last decade. The Wednesday evening market takes place at the parking lot on North Street, between Grove and Foss Streets, with the Saturday morning market across the street. Even after all these years, the focus is still on the farmers and the produce. The market doesn't have much in terms of the ancillary bells and whistles that some of the more festival-like markets boast. In fact, the organization's bylaws allow it to have only five non-food or non-agriculture booths out of its 60 vendors. Those five currently include ceramics and salvaged wood pieces. While only about four of the vendors are certified organic, nearly all of them come from within a 10-mile radius of the market.

Another market, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.wednesdaynightmarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Wednesday Night Market\u003c/a>, offers more of a summer community event as an alternative to the morning farmers markets at Wells Fargo. The year-round market at the Wells Fargo Center has about 70 vendors, depending on the seasons, and about half of those are agricultural vendors. Since the market has been around for so long, most of the vendors have been there for years. Even the newest sellers have been at the Santa Rosa market for about three years. Some of the stone fruits come from as far away as Modesto -- they simply don't grow up here -- but the majority of produce is from Sonoma County. And you can be sure as soon as crowd favorites, like strawberries or avocados, come in season, they disappear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://thesantarosafarmersmarket.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Original Certified Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot at the Wells Fargo Center for the Arts [\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/P7xruY\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\n50 Mark West Springs Rd\u003cbr>\nSanta Rosa, CA 95403\u003cbr>\nHours: Wednesday and Saturday, 8:30 a.m.-1 p.m. year-round\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: 68-75 vendors, rotating\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/santarosacommunityfarmersmarket\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Community Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SantaRosaFrmMkt\" target=\"_blank\">@SantaRosaFrmMkt\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The community farmers market group also runs the older summer markets in Walnut Park and on Wednesday evenings in the Petaluma Theater District. But a few years ago, the city wanted to expand the number of events and opportunities on the east side of town. The East-Side Market runs in the parking lot next to a shopping center, with a handful of local Sonoma-sourced produce vendors. About one-third of those vendors are certified organic. The draw of the market includes other services and vendors like food trucks, chiropractic services, and craft items.

Years ago the Sonoma markets split and the town now has two -- one that's more of \u003ca href=\"http://www.sonomaplazamarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">an evening festival\u003c/a> and one that's smaller and without as many frills. This is the frill-free one that's more about the fresh food. Most of the produce is from Sonoma County or nearby, including the selection from Paul's Produce and Oak Hill Farm. Some of the farms have even been coming to the market through multiple generations, as the original farmer's kids have taken over. While nearly half the vendors are agricultural, only a handful are organic. Along with selling their food here, some of them also sell to restaurants. Spring Hill, for example, sells its organic cheeses and butters to Chipotle, but you can also find many of the vendors' produce at more classic establishments. While you're there, just follow your nose to get some warm fresh bread from \u003ca href=\"http://www.thebejkr.com/\" target=\"_blank\">The Bejkr\u003c/a> to go with your produce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.svcfm.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Sonoma Valley Certified Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot at Arnold Field [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/Q5MHSe\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\n241 West First Street, Sonoma, CA, 94999\u003cbr>\nHours: Friday, 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m. year-round\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: 33-36 vendors\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/SVCFM/\" target=\"_blank\">Sonoma Valley Certified Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And, given the farmland in the area, you know it has to be good. The Tuesday farmers market is slightly smaller, but on Saturdays the parking lot across from the popular Oxbow Public Market is the place to be. Try the whiskey-smoked brown sugar or the Wine Country Chocolates. But don't worry: most of the food is more health-conscious than sugar and chocolate. About one-third of the vendors are farmers, selling what they themselves grow. There are only four or five certified organic produce farms, but many of the farms use a number of sustainable practices. While you walk the aisles to find exactly what you're looking for, the kids can enjoy story time at 10 a.m. and a kids' education program the first Saturday of the month. For the adults, there are also chef demonstrations on the second and fourth Saturdays.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Now, you can serve them in style on the handmade, one-of-a-kind oak cheeseboards they're selling this month. The boards are made from oak salvaged from a 100-year-old Kentucky tobacco barn, finished satiny-smooth with olive oil and beeswax ($35-55). Get to the market early enough, and you might be lucky enough to pick up a block or two of their flower-embossed soap, made from sheep's milk and local olive oil in scents like rose geranium, lemongrass, lavender, and star anise. The Weirauchs are raising a herd of dairy sheep in Petaluma; come next spring, once lambing starts, they'll be making their own farmstead sheep's milk cheeses, too.

Tea lover Jeni Quigg started her luxury tea company a little over a year ago, travelling around the world to source rare, small-batch, artisan-grown teas--what she calls \"legendary teas.\" Her personally blended masala chai, which she also sells brewed by the cup, has a bright, clean spiciness to it, thanks to cardamon and peppercorns that Quigg picked herself on the Malabar coast. Even decaf drinkers can find something to love here, thanks to several blends made with rooibos or decaffeinated teas, including a rooibos chai and a seductive cinnamon plum sprinkled with saffron, flax seeds, and marigold petals. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Known for their rustic, rough-hewn hearth breads, \u003ca href=\"http://www.dellafattoria.com\">Della Fattoria\u003c/a> bakery also has a popular side line of pastries, including gift bags of biscotti and chocolate-chip cookies ($6) sold at the Marin Civic Center market. This year, they're offering an Italian holiday specialty, panforte ($16). Dense with dried fruits, honey, nuts, and spices, this chewy confection has a history stretching back centuries. \"It was the Crusaders' little powerbar,\" says owner Edmund Weber. It has a deep, winter-spiced taste, lovely with a cup of Sky tea or a glass of dessert wine, the perfect reward for shopping local this season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>A note to shoppers: Both the Sebastopol and Marin Civic Center markets will be operating this Sunday, December 18.

Here's a few favorite seasonal treats for sale at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sebastopolfarmmarket.org/Sebastopol_Farm_Market/Home.html\">Sebastopol\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.agriculturalinstitute.org/market-map/\">Marin Civic Center\u003c/a> markets this week. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/soapcheeseboard560.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/soapcheeseboard560.jpg\" alt=\"soap and cheeseboard\" title=\"soap and cheeseboard\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-36595\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newcomers Joel and Carleen Weirauch of \u003ca href=\"http://www.weirauchfarm.com/Weirauch_Farm_%26_Creamery/home.html\">Weirauch Farm & Creamery\u003c/a> are already generating a buzz about their small-batch cow's-milk cheeses. Now, you can serve them in style on the handmade, one-of-a-kind oak cheeseboards they're selling this month. The boards are made from oak salvaged from a 100-year-old Kentucky tobacco barn, finished satiny-smooth with olive oil and beeswax ($35-55). Get to the market early enough, and you might be lucky enough to pick up a block or two of their flower-embossed soap, made from sheep's milk and local olive oil in scents like rose geranium, lemongrass, lavender, and star anise. The Weirauchs are raising a herd of dairy sheep in Petaluma; come next spring, once lambing starts, they'll be making their own farmstead sheep's milk cheeses, too. Find them on Sunday at Sebastopol and Thursday at Marin Civic Center. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/oliveoil560.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/oliveoil560.jpg\" alt=\"olive oil\" title=\"olive oil\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-36593\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also at the sweet Sebastopol market: \u003ca href=\"http://www.terrasavia.com/olive_oil.html\">Terra Savia's\u003c/a> bright, peppery new-crop olive oil, made from organic olives grown along the Mendocino/Sonoma border and pressed just last month at Terra Savia's olive press in Hopland. This luscious \u003cem>olio nuovo\u003c/em> is a Tuscan-style treat that's perfect for dipping into with a chunk of fresh, crusty bread. Terra Salvia also offers several single-varietal olive oils as well as wildflower honey, olive-oil soaps and a soothing botanical salve for moisturizing winter-dry skin. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Or pick up a mix-and-match assortment of low-sugar, big-flavor berry jams made by \u003ca href=\"http://swantonberryfarm.com/\">Swanton Berry Farm\u003c/a>, in flavors like tayberry, olallieberry, strawberry, and blackberry ($7-$9).

Tea lover Jeni Quigg started her luxury tea company a little over a year ago, travelling around the world to source rare, small-batch, artisan-grown teas--what she calls \"legendary teas.\" Her personally blended masala chai, which she also sells brewed by the cup, has a bright, clean spiciness to it, thanks to cardamon and peppercorns that Quigg picked herself on the Malabar coast. Even decaf drinkers can find something to love here, thanks to several blends made with rooibos or decaffeinated teas, including a rooibos chai and a seductive cinnamon plum sprinkled with saffron, flax seeds, and marigold petals. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Known for their rustic, rough-hewn hearth breads, \u003ca href=\"http://www.dellafattoria.com\">Della Fattoria\u003c/a> bakery also has a popular side line of pastries, including gift bags of biscotti and chocolate-chip cookies ($6) sold at the Marin Civic Center market. This year, they're offering an Italian holiday specialty, panforte ($16). Dense with dried fruits, honey, nuts, and spices, this chewy confection has a history stretching back centuries. \"It was the Crusaders' little powerbar,\" says owner Edmund Weber. It has a deep, winter-spiced taste, lovely with a cup of Sky tea or a glass of dessert wine, the perfect reward for shopping local this season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>A note to shoppers: Both the Sebastopol and Marin Civic Center markets will be operating this Sunday, December 18.

You'd think that, on this chilly, wet Monday night, everyone would be at home pulling a pizza from the freezer and flipping through the Netflix stack, but up and down Magnolia Street, there's not a parking place to be found. By eight o'clock, nearly every table at \u003ca href=\"http://www.restaurantpicco.com/\">Picco\u003c/a> is full and happy. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Welcome to Marin Mondays, chef-owner Bruce Hill's popular eat-local brainstorm. The concept is simple: each Monday, the restaurant offers a homey, five-course prix fixe menu showcasing local producers, for $30-$33 a person. (The restaurant's extensive regular menu is also available, and the Marin menu items can be sampled à la carte.) Think \u003ca href=\"http://www.adhocrestaurant.com/\">Ad Hoc\u003c/a> with a locavore twist, and so far, it's brought out big crowds every week, on a night that's typically a slow one in the restaurant biz. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This might be a tricky proposition in, say, Fargo, or Cleveland, but with the Pacific Ocean on one side, San Francisco Bay on the other, and the rich, rolling green fields, woods, and pastures of rural West Marin (plus oyster-friendly Tomales Bay) in between, Marin County is pretty much a year-round bounty of bliss for local-conscious eaters and producers alike. Fishermen, dairy ranchers, farmers, vintners, and foragers all work the land (and water) here, raising sheep, cows, goats, and chickens on grass, farming oysters in the bays, making cheese, distilling liqueurs, catching squid, growing greens, picking mushrooms, baking bread in wood-fired ovens, and more. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, sourcing: not a problem. And the menu's once-a-week status gives Picco's cooks the chance to be micro-seasonal in their creativity as they come up with new recipes based on whatever cool stuff is available each week. As long as there's enough of it to feed one night's worth of customers, they can use it-- a great boon to the foragers and farmers with just a few acres of continually cycling crops. And the menu isn't strictly local-limited; there's coconut milk in the curry, candied ginger on the ice cream, sriracha hot sauce on the fish cakes. But flavorings aside, the bulk of the ingredients come from nearby, because even in the depths of winter, abundance reigns. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the menu is open to interpretation each week, instead of being locked down in the pristine, unadorned Cal-Med style, all sea salt and olive oil, that has become the de facto way of cooking local here. On the night we went, the inspiration was Thailand, with a side of Jersey & Buffalo. Or at least that's how we interpreted the appearance of sliders, chicken wings, and soft-serve ice cream between the squid salad and beef curry. To sip, there are two local libations, a Stubbs Estate organic chardonnay and a Shaken, Not Stirred cocktail made with house-infused elderflower liqueur and \u003ca href=\"http://www.squareonevodka.com\">Square One\u003c/a> cucumber vodka, made in Novato. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last Monday, in honor of \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfbeerweek.org/\">Beer Week\u003c/a>, there was beer from Marin Brew Company in every dish, from Hog Island manila clams steamed in Albion ale to a fritto misto battered with IPA, cheddar soup with pilsner and rye croutons, and a stout cake with Straus Dairy caramel ice cream. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But back to Thailand in Marin. We started with a light and lovely squid salad, tender and tangy and tangled with cubes of crunchy Asian pear and fresh herbs, alongside a puff of succulent miners' lettuce, that wonderful winter weed named for adding much-needed vitamins to many a Forty-Niner's salt pork-and-sourdough diet. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/squid.jpg\" alt=\"squid salad\" title=\"squid salad\" width=\"504\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10594\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next up, a gloriously (but not excessively) greasy fish \"slider,\" White Castle meets Thai fish cake. Unlike the fish cakes in Thai restaurants, which are often bounceably rubbery, these were more like crab cakes, made with rock cod from Bolinas, gentle and just a little springy, lavished with crunchy County Line cabbage and Star Route Farm carrot slaw, dripping with sriracha-spiked mayo and paired with super-crunchy, extra-salty chiplets made from sunchoke curls. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/slider2.jpg\" alt=\"fish slider\" title=\"fish slider\" width=\"378\" height=\"504\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10593\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Superbowl-sublime chicken wings from Coastal Hill Farms followed, lacquered sticky-meaty mouthfuls, messy and wonderful. A thick puddle of seasoned Straus yogurt sauce and a mound of shredded celery root with baby watercress replaced the ranch dressing and celery sticks of sports-bar tradition. Dressing up lowbrow favorites doesn't always work (I'm still shaking my head over the dainty arugula-and-mandarin-orange salad served with the lobster roll at nearby Yankee Pier when they first opened—when, as every New Englander knows, a true lobster roll needs nothing but a bag of chips) but in this case, it's great. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/chicken.jpg\" alt=\"chicken wings\" title=\"chicken wings\" width=\"504\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10590\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By this time, we're pretty happily fed. The main dish, a Mussaman beef and potato curry, looks a little skimpy lurking at the bottom of its big white bowls, but it's deceptive. Rich and coconut-sauced, dotted with translucent, almost fetal baby radishes, the Marin Sun braised short ribs fork tender and lush, it turns out to be all we need. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/main.jpg\" alt=\"Mussaman beef and potato curry\" title=\"Mussaman beef and potato curry\" width=\"504\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10592\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All we're expecting for dessert is a bitty swirl of Picco's famous Straus Dairy soft-serve, what might fill a Chinese-restaurant teacup. Instead, we get a massive swirl towering above a cereal bowl, heavily crunched with candied ginger and pecan praline. Lovely, palate-cleansing, and crazily big. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then again, being graced with too much ice cream made from the milk of happy local cows?

Dressing up lowbrow favorites doesn't always work (I'm still shaking my head over the dainty arugula-and-mandarin-orange salad served with the lobster roll at nearby Yankee Pier when they first opened—when, as every New Englander knows, a true lobster roll needs nothing but a bag of chips) but in this case, it's great. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/chicken.jpg\" alt=\"chicken wings\" title=\"chicken wings\" width=\"504\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10590\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By this time, we're pretty happily fed. The main dish, a Mussaman beef and potato curry, looks a little skimpy lurking at the bottom of its big white bowls, but it's deceptive. Rich and coconut-sauced, dotted with translucent, almost fetal baby radishes, the Marin Sun braised short ribs fork tender and lush, it turns out to be all we need. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/main.jpg\" alt=\"Mussaman beef and potato curry\" title=\"Mussaman beef and potato curry\" width=\"504\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10592\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All we're expecting for dessert is a bitty swirl of Picco's famous Straus Dairy soft-serve, what might fill a Chinese-restaurant teacup. Instead, we get a massive swirl towering above a cereal bowl, heavily crunched with candied ginger and pecan praline. Lovely, palate-cleansing, and crazily big. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then again, being graced with too much ice cream made from the milk of happy local cows?
