Eat Drink SF 2016

Behind every great dish is a person with a story, and that’s where you’ll find Menu Stories Podcast. Rather than just reviewing flavors, this series digs into the lives and spaces that shape our meals. Host Rebecca Goberstein sits down with the chefs, deli owners, and food makers of San Francisco, turning a simple conversation into a revealing portrait. You’ll hear about the inspirations that sparked a career, the personal history woven into a family recipe, and the quiet motivations that get someone through a long night in the kitchen. Each episode feels like a booth in the back of a restaurant where the real talk happens, connecting the dots between culture, place, and the plate. This podcast moves beyond the menu to explore how food acts as a anchor in our communities and a record of our collective history. It’s for anyone who’s ever wondered about the hands that prepared their meal and the journey that brought it to the table. Tune in for intimate, human-centered stories that remind us every bite has a deeper context.
