Lazy Bear began as dinner parties in David Barzelay’s San Francisco apartment. Today it holds two Michelin stars, and David is a James Beard Award nominee and a Food & Wine Best New Chef.
For one night, that dinner party comes to our garden. A private family-style dinner by Chef David Barzelay is part of NewTree Ranch’s Live Auction Item 7 at the James Beard Foundation’s Gala for Good.
Online bidding is open through Nov 6 at 7pm PT. Link in bio.

Chef David Barzelay began Lazy Bear in 2009 as a dinner party in his own apartment, cooking for guests he had never met. That spirit of gathering carried it to a permanent home in San Francisco’s Mission District, two Michelin stars, and recognition as one of Food & Wine’s Best New Chefs.
On Thursday, November 19th, we invite you to join Amanda Harlan, David, and the Lazy Bear team for a private dinner at Lazy Bear with The Mascot. Reservations are available through the link in our bio.

The Bay Area is host to the world's AI ambitions, the latest swing in San Francisco's cycles of boom and bust. Chef David Barzelay (@davidbarzelay) sees the same push and pull in restaurant work: there are times when it's easy to love, and times when it's tough. In a letter to the city's hospitality community, he says the sacrifices are well known and makes the case for the joys that make them worthwhile—from a trade that can't be made remote or replaced by AI to the chaotic nights when a crew holds the line.

One evening at RIME, shaped by smoke and flame. 🔥

A lawyer turned self-taught cook throwing underground dinner parties in San Francisco, turned his secret pop-ups into a two-Michelin-starred restaurant called Lazy Bear - one of the hardest reservations to get in America. 🔥
A Food & Wine Best New Chef in 2016 and multiple-time James Beard nominee, David Barzelay has since expanded his group with True Laurel (2017), the acclaimed San Francisco cocktail bar, and JouJou (2026), a seafood-forward French restaurant in the Design District.
David Barzelay is bringing that same spirit to Chef's Table Festival presented by @americanexpress and @resy in Park City, Utah August 13–16.
🎟 Seats are limited. Book ASAP for best access.

Delicious is the easy part. Chef David Barzelay (@davidbarzelay) is back with @sfjoujou, his latest project in the Design District—and his first menu in a decade he calls fully his own. In this summer issue, Sonya Yu (@sonyayu) sits down with the creative mind behind @lazybearsf for a candid conversation about fashion, comfort zones, and what it truly means to step out of chef whites.

Happy holidays from the frigid winter wonderlands of Quebec City and Montreal.

A cross between chocolate souffle and a molten chocolate cake, this beet and chocolate dessert focused on the products of our local chocolatier @dandelionchocolate, including the rarest part of the cacao: the sweet, bright, acidic pulp that surrounds cacao beans before fermentation, which usually spoils in the tropical heat of a chocolate farm before it can be transported away.
It turns out that that white cacao pulp is already a nearly-perfect sorbet base straight from the pod. We change almost nothing about it, adjusting for differences in sugar and acid from batch-to-batch before swirling the cacao pulp sorbet with a beetroot syrup to produce the vibrant marbled sorbet ball toward the front of the plate. It’s cradled underneath by some chocolate pudding and cocoa crumbs.
The souffle/cake, which we bake á la minute from raw, hides a soft beet caramel at its center that spills out a bit when the cake is,m/, made by slowly reducing @starroutefarms beets with oat milk, turbinado sugar, a touch of Banyuls vinegar, and a sheen of olive oil.
Whole beets are also ember-roasted, juiced, and dehydrated into a crisp tuile shaped like a beet leaf, adding color, crunch, and a final note of the root veggie’s flavor.

Emmett asked for “homemade fries,” so tonight became the latest test of the @sfjoujou fries. Pretty close to perfect.
