Berkeley is home to many firsts: recycling started here in 1970, it hosts the country’s oldest still-running marijuana dispensary, and Alice Waters and friends revolutionized American cooking when she opened Chez Panisse in 1971. Learn all about the interconnections of food, social justice, community, sustainability and deliciousness on Edible Excursions’ Berkeley Gourmet Ghetto Tour, which walks you by (and sometimes takes you into for snacking) city stalwarts like Chez Panisse, 4 Saul’s Delicatessen, Alegio, Peet’s Coffee and Tea, and the über-hippie Cheese Board Collective.
