"Bakesale Betty has been holding it down at the corner of 51st and Telegraph for two decades, and the takeout-only lunch institution shows no signs of slowing down. You’re here for one thing: the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich spilling over with their iconic jalapeño-dotted coleslaw. Actually, two things, because no visit is complete without a carton of strawberry shortcake for dessert." - Julia Chen, Lani Conway
"If you’re only going to make one thing, make sure it’s as good as Bakesale Betty’s fried chicken sandwich. The buttermilk chicken is crispy, the jalapeño coleslaw is tangy and slightly spicy, and overall, this sandwich will change your life. But you’ll have to work for it. The line stretches down the block at this lunch-only spot in Temescal. When you finally achieve what seems like the impossible and make it to the front, you’ll also have your choice of perfectly-baked cookies and slices of pie. Triumphantly eat it all on the ironing board tables propped up on a way-too-busy corner of 55th and Telegraph, or take it to go. Just don’t forget the hot sauce packets." - Lani Conway

"If you’re in the East Bay, and also want to support a bake sale benefiting the AAPI community, Bake Love Not Hate will sell baked goods from Boichik Bagels, Two Chicks In The Mix, Firebrand Artisan Breads, La Farine, and more on May 1st, and donate all proceeds to AAPI Women Lead, Asian Prisoner Support Committee, and Hate Is A Virus. In addition, you can bid on things like a signed Steph Curry jersey or gift cards to Farmhouse Kitchen anytime during their online auction on April 30th. Check their Instagram to view more auction items as they’re released, and stop by the bake sale on Saturday from 12-6pm at 59 Grand Ave. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
