ABOUT 1701
KIMberlee WHITE:
CULINARY ALCHEMIST
The Bay Area and Beyond
The food and beverage experience at 1701 is inspired by the historic exploration and influence the ancient Moors have on world cuisine from Spain, the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico and the Americas. At 1701, 14th Century spice blends and techniques are carefully forged into epic dishes while being harmoniously paired with cleverly crafted wine and beer cocktails.
The menu at 1701, is curated using an alchemy of Spanish and Afro-Caribbean flavors with ingredients carefully selected from locally sourced farmers, butchers, fish mongers and spice purveyors.
