SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) — For generations, meat was bought at the local butcher shop, but the rise of the supermarket brought an end to that. However, the local butcher is coming back.
At Avedano's Butcher Shop in San Francisco's Bernal Heights neighborhood, supplies are limited.
"We have some shanks, a neck, some riblets, some shoulder, round bone," explains butcher Angela Wilson.
She is one of three owners of the butcher shop. It was a neighborhood fixture since it opened in 1901, but closed in the 1980s when business declined. Butchers just could not compete with supermarket prices and closed their doors. Today, butcher shops are seeing resurgence as people want to get closer to their food.
