So what exactly is "California cuisine"? At a recent "Taste Talk" at the San Francisco Cooking School, chefs Laurence Jossel (Nopa), Evan Rich (Rich Table), Cortney Burns (Bar Tartine), and Joyce Goldstein discussed the area's ingredient-driven ethos, its roots in the hippie movement, and whether or not all started with Chez Panisse. Says Rich: "If you think, understand and respect the ingredient, that's California cuisine." [Eater SF] [Photo: San Francisco Cooking School]
