She’s the Energizer Bunny of the culinary world. San Francisco’s chef Joanne Weir seems to do it all: she authors cookbooks; conducts culinary/travel tours in Morocco, Spain, and Italy (and more); creates tantalizing new recipes; submits recipes for such esteemed publications as
The New York Times; oversees the hot Mexican restaurant Copita in Sausalito; and hosts one of the most popular cooking shows on PBS. The Gay Gourmet caught up with her during the pandemic to find out about her new TV series, how she’s adapting tours during the COVID-19 pandemic, and all things San Francisco.

Viewers who were here in the late 1990s and early 2000s will remember Barbara Fenzl as the host of “Savor the Southwest” and a long list of specials produced by Arizona PBS. But for Barbara and her husband Terry, the Arizona PBS story goes back much farther.
“We’ve pretty much grown up with Channel Eight,” Barbara said. After falling in love with Arizona during a stay between Terry’s second and third years of law school, the couple moved here in 1969, when the station was only eight years old itself. They enjoyed watching Julia Child and other cooking shows, as well as the premiere Masterpiece drama, “Upstairs Downstairs.”
