When I sat down with Hanah Ehrenreich, we discussed how Fayetteville did not have a de- fined "food culture." San Fran- cisco has sourdough bread. Maryland's got crabs. Can Fay- etteville claim Carolina BBQ? Maybe. I can tell you that Fayetteville does do sushi well. My favorite spot is Sakura off Cliffdale Road… and not because they let me dress up in kimonos from time to time. e new pop-up dinner Ehrenreich's Sustainable Sandhills is throwing could change the food culture in Fayetteville and the Sandhills as we know it. You may not be aware of this, but many of our restaurants are very "lo- cal" minded. ink Mash House, Blue Moon, Hilltop House, Sherefe and the new Blackstone Smokehouse and Pub. We want food on our plates that is not from another state, but within an hour's drive (I guess that could still be South Carolina). But perhaps you may not want to go as "local" with your meats as our re- curring columnist, Bill. A rabbit scraped off your driveway sounds more Fatal Attraction than appetizing to me. But a certain McFadyen may argue that. If you're gluten-free, new contributor and chef, Sueson Vess has curated a trio of autumn recipes utilizing local produce… and we have a list of where to get those veggies and fruits rich in vitamins and flavor. And if you're "Paleo," a vegetarian, a carnivore or enjoy very spirited liba- tions, please join us for our 2nd Annual Food & Wine issue Launch Party at Vizcaya Villa on October 9th from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Let's come together and celebrate our local restaurant scene and toast to the burgeoning Fayetteville flavor!
