Cheesecake lovers rejoice – Basuku Cheesecakes has returned.
The popular Basque cheesecake pop-up halted Bay Area operations from March to December of last year while owner Charles Chen embarked on a “lifelong dream project,” helping his friend open a restaurant in Kyoto, Japan. Chen hoped to land a permanent partnership with a restaurant group in San Francisco before leaving for Asia in March, but the deal ultimately fell through. Now, the Oakland resident returns to the kitchens of Vina Enoteca in Palo Alto to continue baking cheesecakes – and hopes the Italian restaurant will take over his one-man production before he returns to Asia in the spring.
