She was the founder of the first international cooking school in San Francisco, California Street Cooking School. As well as working as a chef, she taught kitchen design at the University of California. Her first cookbook, The Mediterranean Kitchen, was published in 1989. She has since written cookbooks on Mediterranean and Jewish cuisines.[2]

Goldstein ran her restaurant Square One in San Francisco between 1984 and 1996.
