There has been this huge push for local, fresh, farm to fork type dining and I am a huge fan of it. I\u2019ve also noticed the push toward taking certain foods, reinventing them, and creating a new craze. <!--more--><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">Two examples of this are foods that have been around for a VERY long time, bacon and macaroni and cheese. Both of these foods have started showing up in extremely creative ways locally. Another sign of this movement is that Paso Robles actually has a Mac &amp; Cheese Festival now and a little further south there is the Bacon &amp; Barrels event. Hope Family Wines has also been doing a bacon inspired event at their tasting room for several years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">So here\u2019s my question\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">Why is it everyone flocks to the shit already being done, why not see the trend, get into it a bit, but look to the next thing?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">For example, why aren\u2019t we seeing an appetizer of grilled cheese sliders or something done with gourmet mini hot dogs or corn dogs? Why are we not seeing other comfort foods like meatloaf hit the gourmet trail locally? It seems bacon becomes hot in the social media world and in San Francisco so we just latch on to that because it\u2019s already being done\u2026why not think beyond it? How about nachos done in a gourmet way and how Chili\u2019s (they are definitely not gourmet, but the way they do it is cool) does it? They have a nacho plate with about 10 or 15 big chips on it and each chip is given its own nacho throne. I could see that getting all gourmet\u2019d up and I would order the shit out of it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">I&#8217;m pretty sure you have some ideas about food-crazes that could fly&#8230;do tell&#8230;<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently I had some thoughts regarding the restaurant industry, and because most of the dining I do is in my local area I will have&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":3003,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","filesize_raw":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,4],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3000","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-central-coast-restaurants","8":"category-fun","9":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>More Good Food, Please!!!
