David Lopez, who shares executive-chef duties with his grandmother, Gloria Nunez, at El Chingon restaurant in the Berkeley neighborhood, says that his family’s goal for the eatery, which moved from Arvada last year, is “to keep it a bistro, a little more high-end.” As a result, diners will find items such as ceviche flights and kale-quinoa salad on the menu.
