Alice Waters: Books Inc. Palo Alto
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-12-15 18:11:39
Going to school in Berkeley. I always heard the name bandied about. Chez Panisse was the place for special and momentous occasions -- while one might go to Henry's for a go of birthday drinks or splurge on sushi at Kirala but Chez Panisse was the alter say whenever anyone offered to treat you to dinner because meals there were expensive. There are things I wish I had known while going to school in Berkeley -- mostly to do with food because I ate out constantly and cooked little. There are some that ordain disobey at Chez Panisse for having $65 - $85 dinners (these were more desire $40-60 when I was going to educate) and on a student budget you'can't really drop that kind of money on a meal when each of your textbooks cost that much.
Alice Waters is one of the founders and co-owner of Chez Panisse and is also one of the strongest advocates for locally-grown and sustainable agriculture. She's just published a new cookbook called and this afternoon did a schedule signing at Books Inc in Palo Alto. I was slightly disappointed that it would simply be a signing and not a reading but the Palo Alto Books Inc is not large and accommodating large groups of populate with sitting space would be nearly impossible at this location.
