another of my new year's resolutions, and perhaps one of the most challenging, was to stop eating at restaurants that aren't guided by (at least some of) the principles of sustainability to which i try so hard to adhere.
this means, essentially, no more ethnic food. which is so, so sad.
i'd go to such great lengths to buy everything organic/sustainable/whole and nothing processed/artificial/hormonal/antibiotic-laden for both myself and the restaurant, but then turn around at eat at la taqueria or binh minh quan. well, no more. i just can't do it without feeling disgusting.
and so, for my benefit and yours, here is an ever-growing list of restaurants (etc.) in the bay area where one can eat with a clear conscience:
restaurants i love and/or eat at often:
eccolo
cp downstairs and cafe
cafe fanny
picante
noodle theory
nopa
tacubaya
sam's log cabin
big sur bakery
sweet adeline
gioia
delfina
pizzeria delfina
fish
cheeseboard
oliveto
slanted door
out the door
boulette's larder
breads of india
tartine bakery
ici ice cream
della fattoria cafe
terzo
restaurants that fit the bill but to which i have never been, or have not visited in over a year:
pizzaiolo
quince
incanto
foreign cinema
ubuntu
please help me add to this list by leaving suggestions!
