Happy Girl Kitchen Cafe

If you have been to farmer's markets in the Bay Area you have probably stumbled upon Happy Girl Kitchen's delicious pickles. They now have a brick and mortar in Pacific Grove, CA where you can buy their pickles, apple cider, and other canned goodies any day of the week. My boyfriend James is friends with the manager of the cafe and we stopped by on a recent trip to Monterey to check out the new digs.


Happy Girl Kitchen does all of their canning and pickling in this new cafe kitchen by hand. Yep, by hand. That means they hand chop everything and even use the same boiling water bath method I use in my home when I am canning.



With a lack of really great food in the Monterey/Pacific Grove area, Happy Girl Kitchen cafe brings a welcome change. They also bring workshops where they teach everything they know including cheese making!

I had to show these display shelves. This is such a clever idea with the ladder.


 And these mugs, so cute.

    I want a cappuccino in a mug with a heart medallion! Pickles are one of my favorite food groups.
