Alice Waters
Fresh and Healthy Food
Today, in 1971, restaurateur and local fresh food activist Alice Waters opened California’s Iconic Chez Panisse restaurant in Berkeley, California.
Waters never intended to be a chef or to start a revolution. She just wanted to open a nice little restaurant that served fresh, good-tasting food.
When the restaurant opened on this night in 1971, Alice Waters personally greeted her customers at the door.
