“Connecting with other members who experience similar pleasures and pitfalls has been pivotal to my success as a culinary instructor and cooking school owner. There will always be a special place in my heart for SFPFS.”
WE ARE DEDICATED TO PROVIDING A FORUM FOR BAY AREA FOOD PROFESSIONALS AND ENTHUSIASTS TO COME TOGETHER FOR NETWORKING, LEARNING, IDEA-SHARING, AND CONNECTING
Among us are journalists, cookbook authors, restaurateurs, chefs, vintners and sommeliers, caterers, artisanal producers, growers, distributors, educators, photographers, event planners, marketers, retailers, recipe developers, food scientists, and more.
Since 1978, we have offered our members year-round events to connect with others about the challenges and rewards of working in the food industry. At our events, members explore trends and gain insights from leading food authorities and entrepreneurs. We organize food tours, roundtable discussions, wine tastings, private dining experiences, and more.
