Moved by security camera videos of older Asians being viciously attacked in the San Francisco Bay Area, Jacob Azevedo, a young Latino man, offered in an Instagram post to escort anyone in Oakland’s Chinatown who felt unsafe.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Settled in the 1850s, Oakland's Chinatown has always been a special part of the surrounding community. "I love the energy, engaging all the senses," shares "Save Our Chinatowns" volunteer Daphne Wu. "This space has been such an important space for Asian Americans." When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Chinatown saw a dramatic downturn. "People were reluctant to come out, reluctant to support the businesses," Wu explains. "We lost all our restaurant customers," Green Fish Seafood Market owner Finnie Phung adds. "It was very stressful." As a result, Oakland artist Jocelyn Tsaih, founded "Save Our Chinatowns," an initiative to help support Oakland Chinatown businesses.

For restaurants with the most social media savvy, Instagram serves up the promise of reposted, reshared, and “liked” takeout. One prime example is the Farmhouse Kitchen restaurant group, which has had not one but two smash sensations on the platform in the past year. Farmhouse Thai, with 24,000 followers, has sold 65,000 Little Lao takeout sets, a big colorful platter filled with curries, noodles, spring rolls, and samosas, since the beginning of the pandemic. And Son & Garden, its newest restaurant, already with 12,000 followers, followed with an over-the-top tea-party set, filled with finger sandwiches, pastries, tea, and rosebuds. Fifteen hundred of those have sold so far.
Half marinated crab with nori loaf from Sister in Oakland. Photo: Sister Dungeness crab season is finally here! Local crab lovers have been eagerly anticipating the start, which has been delayed for the past two months due to migrating whales, crabbing equipment lost in a fire and drawn-out price negotiations between local crab fleets and wholesale buyers. Now that the season has started, supply is limited and prices are high, which also means, disappointingly, we won’t be seeing local crab on restaurant takeout menus for too much longer. So get crackin’! AGRODOLCE Chef Angelo D’Alo tells Nosh that Agrodolce is serving local crab in three dishes: Cioppino with half Dungeness crab ($50); a whole crab served “salad style,” chilled with garlic, lemon and chiles ($48); and pan-sauteed with two different Sicilian chiles and heirloom tomatoes ($48).
“Have You Eaten Yet?” a zine about the people and food of Oakland Chinatown In Chinese culture, food is so important to the fabric of life and community, that a common way to greet others is to ask, “Have you eaten yet?” So the phrase is a fitting name for a new zine that focuses on the food and people in Oakland Chinatown. Artists and designers of grassroots initiative Save Our Chinatowns, in partnership with Good Good Eatz, created “Have You Eaten Yet?”, which features bite-sized, well-designed articles on the history of Oakland Chinatown, interviews with notable Oakland residents, restaurant recommendations and other resources on how to support Chinatown business, as well as recipes from the owners of Yuen Hop Noodle Company (for lo mein), Green Fish Seafood Market (for seafood hot pot) and Cam Anh Deli (for lemongrass tofu).
