Learn About the Source of Food at Quillisascut Farm School
At Quillisascut, food lovers learn the A–Z of the domestic arts
Years before the current farm-to-table trend hit Seattle, Rick and Lora Lea Misterly were carting baskets of their small-batch goat cheese from their farm in Rice, Washington, to the kitchen doors of small, chef-owned restaurants around the city. Today, after the farm’s 25 years of slow but steady growth, cheese isn’t the only thing they…

East Anchor Seafood Market and Oyster Bar Offers A Fresh Catch
Shopping at an envy-inducing neighborhood market
A twinge of jealousy struck me upon entering East Anchor Seafood, Kayley Turkheimer and Brian Clevenger’s tiny seafood market and oyster bar in Madrona. As a fish fiend, I’m envious of the folks who live nearby and can stop in for the chef’s giant crab cakes or take-home wild salmon fillets. The market opened in…

Why Alaska’s Pebble Mine Matters in Seattle
What happens in Bristol Bay doesn’t stay in Bristol Bay: the battle over the Pebble Mine.
Salmon spawn in our rivers, climb our fish ladders, adorn everything from totem poles to T-shirts and grace our plates. They are synonymous with Seattle. And we spend a great deal of time and effort trying to protect their habitat close to home. These days, most of our wild salmon come from Alaska, in particular,…
Café Nordo’s Compelling New Food Manifesto
Wending through the creaky, unlit passages that served as intermissions during the nearly four-hour long Café Nordo’s Cabinet of Curiosities “show”, I couldn’t stop thinking about Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining. Not the gory, traumatizing moments in the movie (I still get chills around long stretches of patterned carpet)—but, specifically, the scene where Jack Nicholson’s character…

Why the Best Friends Are Farmers…And Goats
Prepare to feel pangs of jealousy! A girlfriend messaged yesterday to ask if I was free to accompany her to a unique fundraiser that night that her date was too sick to attend. Not just any fundraiser, but a dinner at Western Bridge owners William and Ruth True’s house in Madison Park. A dinner featuring…
Homemade in Seattle: A Fungus Lover’s Cookbook
Seattle-based photographer Stephanie Joy Billmayer, 29, shared these photos of her recent homemade project, a book of mushroom recipes called ‘Fungiculture.’ Because the book seems to celebrate both craftiness and cooking with fresh produce, I figured it might be of interest to Seattle mag readers.
