Last Friday, I deliberated these choices and ended up with shrimp tempura, my favorite, and takana. What sets Tokyo Fish Market’s onigiri apart from others is how well the rice is seasoned in a light rice vinegar with a faint saltiness.

All cubed into tiny pieces, the fresh and cooked ingredients added lively texture to the creamy hummus and fluffy pita bread. The showstopper, though, was the beef and lamb kebab, which was tender and juicy, reminiscent of medium-rare meatballs that are a little crispy on the outside.

For my main, I got the hummus sabich, a big bowl of hummus that came with a combination of fried eggplant, potato, hard-boiled egg, cucumber, tomato, chopped pickles, amba sauce (a tart glaze made out of unripe mango) and fresh herbs. All cubed into tiny pieces, the fresh and cooked ingredients added lively texture to the creamy hummus and fluffy pita bread. The showstopper, though, was the beef and lamb kebab, which was tender and juicy, reminiscent of medium-rare meatballs that are a little crispy on the outside.

A “dry January” looks different for each person, depending on what they’re trying to accomplish — maybe they keep the glass of wine with dinner but skip the bar outings on Friday night. Or maybe they limit themselves to one drink only at the company happy hour.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless, skipping drinking can sometimes feel like it's costing you your social life. Whether you’re suffering FOMO seeing your friends at the newest wine bar or compromising your goal for a second beer at game night, finding ways to stick to your guns when everyone around you is drinking can be rough. But, it can be a positive to stick it out according to life coach and speaker \u003ca href=\"http://alliestarkwellness.com/\">Allie Stark.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Deciding to cut back or stop consuming alcohol after the excess of the holiday season is an active change in a behavior that will inherently influence your thoughts and your feelings,” says Stark. “This can have a large impact on your relationships, your motivation at work, your internal confidence, and so much more.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stark suggests communicating your goals clearly and openly with friends and family, then stick to the folk who understand why you’re choosing not to drink — at least for a little bit. “Actively choose to surround yourself with friends and family that respect your decision to not drink for the time being, as it will allow for an easier and more enjoyable experience while it is taking place,” says Stark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Luckily, there is an endless combination of places to meet friends and enjoy one another in the Bay Area that don’t involve alcohol.

You’ll be exercising, trying something new, and because there’s no alcohol on the premises, you’ll be swapping a beer for a Gatorade or Coca-cola.

We love it, but we always want to do better.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ritual joins a long line of San Francisco coffee roasters—including famous brands like Folgers and Hills Bros.—and product manufacturers that aren’t always associated with the city’s booming industries. “I’m excited about this scene of San Francisco coffee roasters that is connected to a scene of manufacturing in San Francisco” says Rinaldi, “And I think that’s critical to us maintaining a diverse economy here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rinaldi says that Ritual specializes in lighter roasts, a process that is delicate and difficult to produce in large quantities. Where some would compare roasting coffee to steaks on a grill, Rinaldi prefers to use baking a cake in her analogy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you throw steaks on a grill, it’s great if the inside is pretty much still raw,” says Rinaldi. “But when you bake a cake and the inside isn’t cooked, it’s inedible. [With] light roasting, you want to get the center of the bean fully cooked essentially without scorching the outside.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What makes that especially challenging for roasters is different beans have different densities, different moisture contents,” continues Rinaldi. It’s only a few seconds that separates not-quite-roasted coffee that doesn’t brew properly from a roast with a lot of flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ritual has cafes all across San Francisco, and one in Napa, where you can grab a cup for yourself—the location in Hayes Valley is just about perfect if you’re looking for some window shopping.

They’re interesting people,” says Myers, “When I became a coffee roaster I didn’t want to be in competition.I didn’t see that it needed to be competition.” His admiration for the people in the coffee business has impacted his business ethos in a deep way. In fact, over the last few years, Highwire has helped several small roasters get their start by teaching them how to roast (if they need it) and renting them space within their own roastery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the biggest barriers to entry for people who want to realize their dream in coffee is how prohibitive buying a coffee roaster has always been,” says Myers. “We could open up our space [at Highwire] to other business people and really be part of people realizing their dream. And that to me is a much nicer space than who’s doing better in sales or who has more followers on social media.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Myers says it’s gratifying to see roasters graduate to their own space and continue to contribute to the diverse voices within the Bay Area coffee scene.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Bicycle Coffee\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Bicycle+Coffee/@37.7955256,-122.276469,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x808f80c8515db049:0x56d0ae0e4d6330c1!8m2!3d37.7955256!4d-122.2742803\">364 2nd St\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94607\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_130691\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-130691\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-800x633.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"633\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-800x633.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-160x127.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-768x607.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-1020x807.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-1200x949.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-1180x933.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-960x759.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-240x190.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-375x297.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-520x411.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Some of the CBD drinks and fresh roasted coffee sold by Bicycle Coffee / Image via Bicycle Coffee\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.bicyclecoffeeco.com/\">Bicycle Coffee\u003c/a> has the type of over-the-top scrappy origin story that makes it distinctly Bay Area—including roasting their first batch in a popcorn maker and getting it into the hands of top-floor FiDi execs via a little phone-call trickery.

We love it, but we always want to do better.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ritual joins a long line of San Francisco coffee roasters—including famous brands like Folgers and Hills Bros.—and product manufacturers that aren’t always associated with the city’s booming industries. “I’m excited about this scene of San Francisco coffee roasters that is connected to a scene of manufacturing in San Francisco” says Rinaldi, “And I think that’s critical to us maintaining a diverse economy here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rinaldi says that Ritual specializes in lighter roasts, a process that is delicate and difficult to produce in large quantities. Where some would compare roasting coffee to steaks on a grill, Rinaldi prefers to use baking a cake in her analogy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you throw steaks on a grill, it’s great if the inside is pretty much still raw,” says Rinaldi. “But when you bake a cake and the inside isn’t cooked, it’s inedible. [With] light roasting, you want to get the center of the bean fully cooked essentially without scorching the outside.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What makes that especially challenging for roasters is different beans have different densities, different moisture contents,” continues Rinaldi. It’s only a few seconds that separates not-quite-roasted coffee that doesn’t brew properly from a roast with a lot of flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ritual has cafes all across San Francisco, and one in Napa, where you can grab a cup for yourself—the location in Hayes Valley is just about perfect if you’re looking for some window shopping.

With names like “The Core” and “Conscientious Objector,” the whole presentation is hard to ignore—much like the ethos behind the company itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robert Myers, one of the co-founders of Highwire, got his start in coffee in the Bay Area while working at Peet’s. He saw coffee’s ability to build community and was inspired to start his own roaster—one that makes space for people to help one another.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most of the people I’ve ever met who work in coffee are just good people. They’re interesting people,” says Myers, “When I became a coffee roaster I didn’t want to be in competition.I didn’t see that it needed to be competition.” His admiration for the people in the coffee business has impacted his business ethos in a deep way. In fact, over the last few years, Highwire has helped several small roasters get their start by teaching them how to roast (if they need it) and renting them space within their own roastery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the biggest barriers to entry for people who want to realize their dream in coffee is how prohibitive buying a coffee roaster has always been,” says Myers. “We could open up our space [at Highwire] to other business people and really be part of people realizing their dream. And that to me is a much nicer space than who’s doing better in sales or who has more followers on social media.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Myers says it’s gratifying to see roasters graduate to their own space and continue to contribute to the diverse voices within the Bay Area coffee scene.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Bicycle Coffee\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Bicycle+Coffee/@37.7955256,-122.276469,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x808f80c8515db049:0x56d0ae0e4d6330c1!8m2!3d37.7955256!4d-122.2742803\">364 2nd St\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94607\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_130691\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-130691\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-800x633.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"633\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-800x633.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-160x127.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-768x607.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-1020x807.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-1200x949.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-1180x933.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-960x759.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-240x190.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-375x297.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/IMG_9704-520x411.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Some of the CBD drinks and fresh roasted coffee sold by Bicycle Coffee / Image via Bicycle Coffee\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.bicyclecoffeeco.com/\">Bicycle Coffee\u003c/a> has the type of over-the-top scrappy origin story that makes it distinctly Bay Area—including roasting their first batch in a popcorn maker and getting it into the hands of top-floor FiDi execs via a little phone-call trickery. Now, Bicycle is an international enterprise with locations in the Bay, Los Angeles, and Tokyo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The roastery takes its name from their delivery method. All orders are delivered via bicycle, with the bags of coffee stacked into small trailers specially designed for the task.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have trailers we designed and built ourselves,” says Brad Butler, co-founder. “They hold hundreds of pounds [of coffee] and there’s nothing else like them on the market.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Initially, bicycles were the most cost-effective form of delivery they had.

Nicholas Tella, director of information security at Johnson & Wales, a private nonprofit university that has a campus in Providence, was a little more skeptical than the customers inside Shiru Cafe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If they're giving you something for free, this data that's being collected, for any vendor, there seems to be more value in the data than in the product,\" Tella said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an \u003ca href=\"http://nymag.com/selectall/2018/08/shiru-cafs-offer-students-free-coffee-for-harvested-data.html\">article in New York Magazine\u003c/a>, Jacob Furst, a professor of computer security at DePaul University, said that concerns could arise if students were required to connect to the cafe's Wi-Fi, which would allow access to a much wider range of information that could be accessed by third parties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, Shiru Cafe in Providence doesn't have any sponsors. Ferris said the student information she and her staff are collecting will be used to narrow down the companies the cafe will bring on as sponsors. She said the student information is securely held and will not be sold to third-party companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They're very good about keeping everyone's information close.
