Farmer's markets can often be known as a place for only organic fruits and veggies, but one visit to the San Leandro Farmers' Market at Bayfair Center proves that they can also be a one-stop shop for breads, cheeses, meats, soaps, flowers, honey products and even freshly-prepared pizzas to cook at home.

The Michelin guide describes Mister Jui’s as bringing “the sparkle back to Chinatown with this contemporary treasure, which puts a modern California spin on Cantonese classics.” The space, a former banquet-style Chinese restaurant, has garnered almost as much attention for its cool decor and design as it has its cuisine. Dishes are served family style with a couple different tasting menus at $45 and up, but dishes are also offered a la carte. Condiments are made in-house and cocktails are creative and fun. Lots of options to pace yourself, dollar-wise.
Fans of Mourad Lahlou’s Outer Richmond restaurant, Aziza, finally have a transit-friendly option to enjoy the chef’s iconic Moroccan and North African cuisine. The dramatically designed space at the base of the historic PacBell building serves the food well as popular ingredients like harissa, za’atar, and preserved lemons flavor and infuse lamb, poultry, and vegetable mains.
Aster, part of the Daniel Patterson Group, received its first Michelin star after only six months of being open. Once again, the restaurant and chef Brett Cooper received another star for its casual vibe and stellar food. Though Cooper’s seasonal California-focused menu at dinner is priced fair considering the quality and portions, if you really want to enjoy his creations, consider brunch instead. Items like porchetta breakfast sandwich and duck confit hash and eggs elevate the brunch experience to another level.
Al’s Place looks like your friendly neighborhood cafe on the outside, but once inside and seated, you’ll see why everyone’s buzzing about this place. Service is top notch and chef/owner Aaron London has created a California-focused seasonal menu full of vegetable-heavy a la carte dishes organized by cold, hot, sides, and limited availability. Depending on how many shareable dishes you order, you could walk away satisfied and still have enough for your BART ride home. Expect to spend $30 to $50 per person.
