For the Bay Area, the growth of Native American cuisine in the restaurant world has been a welcome addition to the rich tablecloth of the Californian palate.After 12 years running one of the only Native American-owned catering businesses in California and a historic appearance as the first Native person to compete on Chopped, Chef Crystal Wahpehpah was ready to debut her restaurant. In November 2021, Wahpehpah's Kitchen opened in Oakland's Fruitvale Village to great acclaim.
This cafe is a labor of love by Vincent Medina of the East Bay Ohlone community and Louis Trevino of the Rumsen Ohlone. Hosted by the Hearst Museum at UC Berkeley, Medina and Trevino's cafe is the only uniquely Ohlone restaurant in the world. As cultural stewards for their Native community, the two co-founders sought to provide a physical space that could both educate the public and represent the Ohlone culinary tradition.
The Native American Health Center in Oakland hosts a monthly gathering of indigenous vendors, musicians, dancers, artists and chefs to foster connection in Oakland's Native community and showcase the variety of Native-owned businesses in the area.
