A Three-Woman Team Has Restored the Neighborhood Market to Its Original Splendor |
||
Cicero’s Meats opened in Bernal Heights in San Francisco in 1901 and was a beloved family-owned market that served the families in the neighborhood for nearly a century. Tia Harrison, Executive Chef and Co-Owner of Sociale in Presidio Heights, who lived in the neighborhood for a number of years, along friends Melanie Eismann and Angela Wilson, who still live in Bernal Heights, decided to take over the space earlier this year when they heard it had been vacated, and set in motions plans to restore the market to its original splendor with the opening of Avedano’s. All three of the women have had their eye on the market for some time, intrigued by the history of the space and drawn by their admiration for the notion of a long-time, family-owned business. |

[The] butcher shop on Cortland Avenue is the only women-run store of its kind in San Francisco. They're cutting meat and chopping up stereotypes. . . . Avedano's offers fish, including wild-caught salmon and petrale sole. They even serve an array of take-out dinners prepared daily - from soups and paninis to cured meats and tacos on Sundays, all made with local, organic ingredients - because they like to cook as well as cut. —Sarah Adler, The San Francisco Chronicle |

If you hadn't guessed by now, I love Avedano's. For me, it's one thing for a place to have good, fresh food. Pack a place with nice folks and quirky (and unselfconscious) detail and I am an instant fan... — Michael Procopio, Bay Area Bites |

As a Bernal Heights resident, I’m having a little Bernal pride moment. Maybe a little girl power moment, too. [T]hey have things there I haven’t seen anywhere else . . . locally-raised meat, . . . a small selection of seafood, [and] things that you’ll only find in restaurants. But despite all of this great stuff, I’m most taken by the fact that a butcher shop has been opened by three women. —Sara Deseran, BITS + BITES BLOG |
