Bento Maker's Traditional Japanese Menu Offered at Saturday's Mission Street Food
Want a schooling in traditional Japanese cooking with a Slow Food approach? Oakland bento-maker Peko-Peko is slated to rock Mission Street Food on Saturday, June 20, with a pristine menu set to include braised pork belly with sake, kombu-cured halibut, and the last of the season's fresh bamboo shoots from Livermore. According to Peko-Peko owner Sylvan Mishima Brackett, none of the eight dishes will cost more than $12, and a portion of the take will benefit Mercy Corps.
