About the Series
The San Francisco area is the cradle of new American cuisine, with seminal chefs like Jeremiah Tower and Mark Miller igniting the revolution. Touched by Eastern tastes and Western ideas about food, San Francisco's chefs also enjoy access to one of the world's greatest sources of fresh foods. This respect for freshness comes through in dishes prepared for the programs, like Jeremiah Tower's Grilled Goat Cheese in Vine Leaves and Mark Miller's Swordfish Escabeche. Other chefs featured on the programs are Masataka Kobayashi, Udo Nechutnys, Roberto Gerometta, Max Schacher, Adriana Giramonti, Werner Albrecht, Jacky Robert, Barbara Tropp, Rene Verdon, Bruce LeFavour, and Christian Iser. Taped on location in San Francisco, Napa Valley, and Mill Valley.What You'll Get
