Local Kitchen is headed West!  I’m off to San Francisco to visit my recently re-located girlfriend Christina in her new digs in the City by the Bay.  She’s very excited for me to come out and cook for her, and I’m excited by all the fabulous local ingredients that California has on offer: olives and olive oil, avocados, almonds, walnuts and pistchios, Rancho Gordo beans, citrus of all kinds and flavors, and oh my the wine!  It’s going to be a fun weekend.

Stay tuned for many great dishes featuring “local to Christina” ingredients!
