Chefs, food gurus and other friends of Alice Waters gathered Friday and Saturday at the U.C. Berkeley Art Museum to ring in a weekend of festivities in celebration of Chez Panisse, the redwood restaurant where Waters began developing her organic food revolution 40 years ago. The “simple little place where we could cook and talk politics,” as Waters once famously described her restaurant, was honored with a Chez Panisse-inspired procession and the unveiling of a photographic portrait of Waters, to be hung in the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery. “I just love that this portrait was taken at the Edible Schoolyard in the fall,” Waters told the crowd on Friday. The weekend’s events — intimate dinners cooked in homes around the Bay Area by different chefs scarpe nike, among them a pig roast in Michael Pollan’s backyard — doubled as fund-raisers for the Edible Schoolyard Project, Waters’s program in which students create and tend an organic garden as part of their school curriculum. “Normally people have big giant events and you don’t have an opportunity to really talk to people scarpe nike,” Waters said of the dinner parties yet to come. “So I thought scarpe nike, instead of trying to mount that big event that we would have a lot of small events and they would have different venues, different cooks, different people at the table.” The Selby was there to capture it all. Here, the first of four dispatches from a delicious anniversary.
