Homestead in Oakland to Host 2nd Annual Labor Day BBQ
Homestead in Oakland, California's Piedmont Avenue neighborhood will be hosting a Labor Day BBQ on Monday, September 1 beginning at noon and continuing until supplies run out.
Service will be buffet style and cost $30.00 (cash only) for adults and $15.00 for children 10 years of age and younger (infants are free). Drinks, for an additional charge (again cash only), will be served separately at the bar.
The food menu will include baby back ribs; corn on the cob with chili lime butter; mixed greens salad; fingerling potato salad; baked beans; house made pullman bread; and house made popsicles.
Among the beverages will be sodas, fresh lemonade, ice tea, bottled sparkling or still water, beers, and one red and one white wine.
Homestead was opened in August of 2013 by Fred and Elizabeth Sassen and offers an upscale farm-to-table menu prepared with seasonal, often locally sourced, organic ingredients. Fred, 31 years old and most recently at Camino in Oakland and prior to that, Executive Sous Chef at Farallon in San Francisco, grew up outside of Atlanta, Georgia. Working in neighborhood restaurants and then premier downtown venues led to culinary school and the decision to relocate to San Francisco to pursue a career. Seven years at Farallon, farm tours throughout California, and stages at other acclaimed restaurants set the stage for opening Homestead. Elizabeth (previously a sous chef at Farallon and Waterbar restaurants, both in San Francisco) grew up on a farm in the Central Valley, as did her parents. In addition to time spent in San Francisco, Elizabeth worked in Madrid, Spain, running a small high-end restaurant called Memento. The Sassens are joined by Abigail Reser, former lead server and the co-manager at Bay Wolf in Oakland for 7 years, who is in charge of front of the house operations.
Highlights of the rustic 48-seat dining room located in a 1920s Julia Morgan building, with contemporary design work by Carrie Shores of Larson Shores Architecture and Daniel Austin of Rocket Restaurant Supply, include hues of fennel green, fresh cream and copper, floor to ceiling windows, original brick inlay, an open kitchen, home-style cabinets, a large butcher block table, repurposed antiques, a custom-built wood-burning grill, and artwork by local artists. An outdoor patio has room for 18 people, weather permitting. Homestead also has a semi-private room that can accommodate 10 seated guests, and afford the option of doing custom pre-booked dinners ranging from family style feasts to refined tasting menus.
Homestead is located at 4029 Piedmont Avenue, between 40th and 41st Streets, in Oakland, California. The restaurant is open for dinner Tuesday through Saturday from 5:00 to 10:00 p.m. and on Sunday from 4:30 to 8:30 p.m. Neighborhood street parking is often an option and there is a city lot directly behind the restaurant.
