New Beginnings and our San Francisco Tour

Like many others, we're joining the country in celebrating new beginnings for all of us.  On our San Francisco Tours, we're hoping this signals an openness to new ideas.  On our San Francisco Food Tours, this is an issue very close to us.  From our perspective on our San Francisco Culinary Tours, what we do on a local level affects not only our local community, but also the nation and the world. 

As we see on our San Francisco Tours, when we eat locally and seasonally, not only does the income stay in our local community, it is also reinvested in our local community.  As we see on our San Francisco Food Tours, we also lift others by not pitting one group against another. In words, the threat of cheap labor and poor working conditions in other areas,  pulling down our income, does not work if each neighborhood is buying locally and seasonally.  As we see on our San Francisco Culinary Tours, if each community is not engaged in a race to the bottom, we all get lifted up.

On our San Francisco Tours, we see the diversity of our neighborhoods. That diversity makes up all stronger.  On our San Francisco Food Tours, we see the commitment we have in San Francisco to support that diversity.  All of us are some kind of minority. As we see on San Francisco Culinary Tours, the "majority" has to make commitment to support the "minority". Otherwise, all of us end getting thrown to the wolves.

This new beginning we hope we see from our San Francisco Tours, is a desire to lift all of us up. Eating locally and seasonally requires that we see the longer picture. As we see on our San Francisco Food Tours, that means that we understand that when we support our local community, everyone gets lifted up.  That fact that we understand that when we are all a "minority", we are all responsible for supporting each other. On our San Francisco Culinary Tours, we see how our neighborhoods are stronger and our individual lives are enhanced when we support each other.

January on our San Francisco Tours

It's January on our San Francisco Tours and we're enjoying new olive oil harvest. On our San Francisco Food Tours, we're enjoying the new flavors of the season. The olive oil is little peppery this time of year, which goes wonderfully with the clams from Point Reyes. Just saute some onions and garlic, brown some chicken and basil sausage, pour in about a cup of white wine, add some herbs and the clams and it is delicious. By comparing the various olive on our San Francisco Culinary tours, we're able to find which one we like best.

Tasting the difference between olive oil different times of year on our San Francisco Tour is a great example of the food we enjoy on our San Francisco Food Tours. We always enjoy looking forward to different seasons on our San Francisco Culinary Tours.

Regardless of where you live, you can eat the same way we do on our San Francisco Tours. A great place to start is your local farmers market. The same method that we enjoy eating on our San Francisco Food Tours is the best way to eat where you are. Local food has the best flavor and when it is fresh, you barely need to do much to it. As we enjoy on our San Francisco Culinary Tours, each season brings new food that not only taste good, but are also good for you.

The method of eating that we enjoy on our San Francisco Tours also supports your community. From local farmers to local stores, when you not only eating locally, your local community suffers from a lack of support. The places we visit on our San Francisco Food Tours support our local community and local farmers. The same kind of places we visit on San Francisco Culinary Tours exist in your community. During an economic downturn, they need your support even more. These are your neighbors and your friends. Your choices today will make the difference about whether they are there later.
