In 1971, she opened Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California, a restaurant closely associated with the rise of farm-to-table cooking and California cuisine.

Through Chez Panisse and her writing, she became a leading figure in a way of cooking that placed ingredients, producers, and place at the center of the table.
