In recent years, the influx of new restaurants and chefs has exploded, resulting in a neighborhood that's become the epicenter of the San Francisco dining scene.

The cookbook, from Susan Kay and Teri Hauswirth of animal rescue organization Creative Rescue, is a non-profit project benefiting both Creativity Explored and Creative Rescue.
