Authentically Locavore

Let’s hoist a glass to Frank Bruni of The New York Times for his 3,200-word paean to the authentically local food scene of Seattle in Sunday’s Travel section. Best quote: “To eat in and around Seattle, which I did recently and recommend heartily, isn’t merely to eat well. It is to experience something that even many larger, more gastronomically celebrated cities and regions can’t offer, not to this degree: a profound and exhilarating sense of place." 

But I also liked, "You want a closer relationship with what you eat? At the Willows Inn You can practically bed down with it.”

Take that, Red Lobster.
