Website
If there is one thing Berkeley-ites love it’s their gourmet food! This small section of Shattuck Ave was inspired by the famed Alice Waters and her restaurant Chez Panisse, still located here. The area boasts several other food revolutionaries over the years from Barney’s Gourmet Burgers to the Cheese Board. European styled shops and restaurants, outdoor dining and tree-lined streets give this area a quaint, small town feel and the perfect way to experience the historical, culinary side of Berkeley, CA.
Also, local Bay Area gourmand, and epicurean concierge, Lisa Rogovin, hosts walking tours of Berkeley’s Gourmet Ghetto, showing visitors and locals alike the culinary treasures of Berkeley, and the San Francisco Bay Area.
