On a new Check, Please! Bay Area: Our culinary journey begins at Grossman’s Noshery & Bar in Santa Rosa, a North Bay favorite that brings the flavors of a classic East Coast Jewish deli to the West Coast. Highlights include smoked and pickled fish boards, potato leek latkes, and hearty matzo ball soup; for a sweet finish, diners can savor their cinnamon or chocolate babkas. Next, Jackie’s Place in San Jose serves up soulful dishes seasoned with love, like fall-off-the-bone oxtails, smoky beef brisket, and creamy mac and cheese that keeps guests coming back for more. Lastly, Crescent Bistro in the heart of Pleasant Hill showcases elevated American cuisine infused with fresh Californian flair, including pork belly buns, cured salmon deviled eggs, and succulent red wine-braised short ribs. Reporter Cecilia Phillips rounds out the episode at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market in San Francisco, exploring fresh produce, local goods, and diverse culinary delights at a historic landmark.

$60 for lunch per person with no drinks? WTF, does everyone order 3-4 items?
I can't even afford eggs and butter to much for me😢
A Jewish deli and no mention of the reportedly house-made corned beef and pastrami?
Thats my boy right there!! HE MADE IT! HES FAMOUS
$60 for a solo meal without drinks doesn’t sound affordable. :/
