In honor of Pride yesterday, Bay Area Bites has a great general shout-out to the gay and lesbian chefs, restaurateurs and other food personalities that help make our city such a culinary Mecca. In particular, we thought the mention of 2223 was illuminating to the feeling of empowerment and belonging such a community can foster: “I still remember walking into 2223 Market one night near the end of June last year, and feeling like everyone there was gay. Gay couples, gay friends, gay parents–it was just like being in the straight world, except this time it was all ours.” [Bay Area Bites]
