Bay Area's Pacific Rim Cuisine

We visit the world headquarters for Google in the South Bay city of Mountain View and Apple in Cupertino. Olivia Wu designed the original Asian restaurant concepts, including the home-style “Jia”, one of the most popular restaurants on the Apple campus. Baadal is Google’s first “sit-down” restaurant, which happens to be Indian, as we participate in the assembly line process that churns out 2,000 servings of the Indian fried rice dish, “Biryani” on “Biryani Fridays”. Some of their purveyors include two retired Japanese semiconductor executives who have constructed an indoor, vertical farm called Ecopia, and seek to redefine farming culture in the midst of global warming, and Hodo Soy Beanery, making artisanal tofu products.
