WHERE TO FIND FOIE GRAS IN SAN FRANCISCO
[updated September 15, 2017] Foie gras ups and downs in California.
Foie gras has been legal in California since January 2015, the question is to know where to find it! We have selected some great addresses here in San Francisco and the Bay... and beyond (beyond being essentially online). Indulge yourself!
For Goose Foie Gras lovers, you will still have to find other options. We could not find any in the area. It looks like only Duck Foie Gras can be found. But we could not get an explanation.
And we have a gourmet recommendation... to accompany your foie gras toast... add some Jalapeno Jelly, a pure delight. It works also pretty well with cheese. Trust us, the result is astounding. By the way, we found our Red Hot Jalapeno Jelly at Whole Foods. That was easy.
It happens that 3 judges consider reinstating California Foie gras. The information got released on Friday, September 15, 2017. You can read more about it in the article shared by the SF Chronicle. > Judges reinstate California foie gras ban.
For the moment, it looks like nothing will change since there is an appeal that will need to be processed and concluded.
IN SAN FRANCISCO OR NOT TOO FAR...

On Cole, Say Cheese definitely offers... Cheeses, but also different kinds of delight including wines, cold meats and pâtés. They are supposed to have Foie Gras from Fabrique Délices all year long.

Fatted Calf
Most probably one of the best delicatessen butcheries in San Francisco. Its store on Fell is heaven for cold meats ammateurs. The recipe Foie Gras Torchon with Riesling, Honey and Espelette pepper sounds just like the perfect one.
