The other day, Jeff and I decided to have a carnivorous date, so we headed over to our local restaurant, Quinn’s, on Capitol Hill. I had a couple amazing slabs of spicy and smoky pork ribs. I was so sad when I was finished! The potato salad had some delightful, crispy bacon and- as Eric Tanaka says- “everything is better with bacon!” The crispness of my ale was a perfect pairing!
RSS SubscribeWelcome to Family Meal, a blog that examines all things new and noteworthy in the world of food, wine, and dining.
At family meal, otherwise known as staff meal, there’s no hierarchy; you’re breaking bread with your friends. For those 30 minutes, everyone is equal- and hungry. Family meal is our version of the water cooler- but with better food.
I’ll be sharing my thoughts, tips, and observations, and, in the spirit of family meal, I’ve invited our creative, energetic staff- everyone from line cook to bartender to bookkeeper- to have a say. I hope you’ll add your own comments and join in the conversation.
