FOOD: WE LOVE IT SO. But why? Surely it’s not about survival alone—or even taste. (Although taste is pretty high up there on the list of explanations!) The more complex reason why we love to eat is because food connects us: to others, to the earth, or to a time and place. As the late chef and enthusiastic eater Anthony Bourdain said, “The perfect meal, or the best meals, occur in a context that frequently has very little to do with the food itself.” Local chefs Mawa McQueen, Stephen Horner, and Molly Mogavero echo this sentiment in “For the Love of Dining” on page 24, all noting that the most meaningful food experiences involve so much more than fine ingredients or special technique. For McQueen, it’s about heart; for Horner, passion; for Mogavero, tradition and memory. These three valley restaurant owners remind us this month that enjoying food with those we love is an integral part of the human experience, one that’s tightly woven through so many aspects of our lives. Food brings us together. Three times a day, in fact. That’s a lot of opportunity

MAWA MCQUEEN of Market Street Kitchen (Willits) and Mawa's Kitchen (Aspen)
Born in Ivory Coast and raised in Paris with a mother who loved to cook for her family, McQueen has an innate, sensual reverence for food. RFL: WHAT’S YOUR MOST MEMORABLE MEAL? “Always a family get-together, as we are a large family. I will cook, and everybody always thinks it’s my mom’s cooking. My mom never denied cooking—this happened a lot.” WHAT ARE THE ELEMENTS OF GREAT DINING? “I think it is the people you are with, not the food. Of course then, the love that you put into cooking, or doing things for other people, is what comes through. People appreciate the effort you put in to provide for them, when you go out of your way to make something.” ARE THERE ANY DISHES ESPECIALLY GREAT FOR SHARING WITH OTHERS? “Absolutely. Spanish,

understand
food, and that it is about sharing. Look at the culture of people who share food. Because of the culture, it’s not fancy, it’s made to be shared. Examples: hummus, guacamole, tagine plate to share.” WHAT’S THE BEST DISH YOU ATE GROWING UP? “Fried fish and plantains, fried bananas, Senegalese Fish and Rice (Thiéboudienne).” WHAT’S YOUR EARLIEST FOOD MEMORY? “Fried donut filled with apple compote. Earliest food I made. I made it every Saturday until I nailed it. First time didn’t rise, second time didn’t cook through. People thought I was crazy.” HOW CAN HOME COOKS MAKE MORE MEMORABLE MEALS? “To make a memorable meal at home you need to enjoy the experience of cooking for others. If you’re stressed about it, don’t even do it. It needs to be enjoyable. You need to put your heart out there and people will love it. In a nutshell, what makes the meal memorable is the people you’re with and your state of mind, not the ingredients and not the food.” CONTINUED >

FOR THE LOVE OF DINING
(CON TI N U ED)
Crafted by the same three brothers-from-another-mother behind Slow Groovin’ BBQ, Redstone’s soon-to-open Propaganda Pie will specialize in Detroit style pan pizza from scratch. Destination dining at its best, Propaganda Pie has ideal Crystal River-side seating and stunning red rock canyon views. The fellas will host live music and offer up billiards, an arcade, and plenty of great outdoor games for all ages. RFL: HOW DID YOU THREE START OUT? “Pizza and BBQ are foods that we’re passionate about, that we love to share with our friends and family. Ryan [Vinciguerra] and I grew up together and have been friends since elementary
STEPHEN HORNER of Slow Groovin' (Marble and Snowmass) and Propaganda Pie (Redstone)
school. I met Nial [O’Connor] in college and we became roommates, best friends, and the stars of our culinary program at Mercyhurst College. Ryan got the same degree from Ohio State. We all moved to Marble when Ryan founded our first restaurant there, Slow Groovin’.” WHAT ARE THE ELEMENTS OF GREAT DINING? “Passion. Passion inspires people to continue to improve. It creates an excitement, to share their knowledge and skills with guests. Dining outside in a destination location is always a bonus, too.” WHAT DID YOU LOVE TO EAT AS A KID? “My Uncle Mark’s grilled chicken. We would eat it with our hands in the back yard for all of our summer family reunions.” EARLIEST FOOD MEMORY? “BBQ ribs for my seventh birthday. My face was covered with sauce!” FAVORITE DISH ON YOUR RESTAURANT’S MENU AT THE MOMENT? “Detroit style pizza with pepperoni and banana peppers.” FAVORITE MEAL OF THE DAY? “Late lunch after spending the day playing in the mountains.” WHAT’S YOUR ADVICE FOR MAKING BETTER MEALS AT HOME? “Cook from scratch, cook for loved ones, and eat outside.”

MOLLY MOGAVERO of EAT (New Castle)
At EAT, Mogavero says she strives to “bring you back home, to when food was wholesome and fresh and mealtime was the highlight of the day.” With handcrafted cocktails, deliberate wines and micros, EAT offers familiar meals with a creative spin—just to keep the flavors lively. RFL: WHAT MEMORY INFUSES THE EFFORTS YOU PUT INTO SUCH A HEARTFELT KITCHEN? “There is nothing more memorable, gratifying, and intimate, nothing more real, than sitting down to a meal with others. It allows us to feel so connected to one another and gifts us the opportunity to feel human. At EAT, the baking and cooking starts early in the day for me, especially when all the breads offered are made in-house. It amazes me that five simple ingredients (water, salt, sugar, yeast, and flour) can render the most brilliant food on earth: bread. This reminds me of my childhood. I grew up on homemade bread. Saturdays were bread-baking days for my mom. Every so often she’d allow all of my siblings and me to sit around the kitchen table with homemade strawberry jelly, butter, and a hot loaf of white bread that she took right out of the oven. We weren’t allowed to touch anything on the table until she said, ‘Go!’ It only took seconds to break bread and leave nothing but a trail of crumbs on the table and jelly all over our face and hands. Eating that bread was the best feeling ever. It was soul food! It was pure and kind and human. It made me feel so happy. I cook to nurture. Our scratch-made meals at EAT start off with the same feeling and anticipation. Everything we do is done with kindness and excellence. Good food brings people together.”

Off the Spit at Roosters A NEW DOWNTOWN CARBONDALE EATERY SERVES UP ROTISSERIE AND MORE WITH COMMUNITY-MINDED FLAIR ARTICLE ALEXANDER WILLIARD | PHOTOGRAPHY ESTATEPHOTOVIDEO.COM - KIT MITCHELL

Roaring Fork Lifestyle | October 2018
THE RESTAURATEUR AND I ARE SITTING ACROSS FROM EACH OTHER IN THE SECONDARY DINING ROOM, A SPACE AT THE FRONT OF THE RESTAURANT WHICH FEATURES AN ELEGANT FLOOR-TO-CEILING SHELF. Decorated with vintage containers that you’d find in any farmhouse kitchen, it contrasts nicely with the contemporary design of Roosters’ interior. The open floor plan, featuring industrial-style lighting, exposed brick walls, and rustic hardwood tables, allows guests an open view into the kitchen, patio space, and Carbondale’s Main Street. Everything is meticulously taken care of: menu, atmosphere, and friendly wait staff. I still, however, can’t keep my eyes off the shelf, which is supported by a hexagonal patchwork of slats that come together to create numerous cubes filled top to bottom with a varied collection of red wines, not even one aged less than five years. It’s something that, I would like to think, would make even the most discerning sommelier’s mouth water. Overall, it’s quite the entrance to such a casually beautiful restaurant, and I can’t help hoping that he’ll reach over and pop open one of those bottles as he begins to give the rundown on what it’s like to be a restaurant owner in Carbondale. Mladen Todorovic is the former proprietor of the upvalley breakfast spot Aspen Over Easy, which closed recently due to a change in property ownership. He tells me about the vision he and his partners Kyle Raymond and Pawel Osiak have for Roosters, which opened late this summer. As he explains the preparations that were made, he picks up one of the corn tortilla tacos sitting in front of him and takes a bite. He looks at me and says with profound simplicity, “I don’t want to serve guests food that I wouldn’t want to eat myself.” Boasting a menu stocked with a variety of sumptuous rotisserie-cooked meats ranging from chicken to prime rib, the restaurant’s offerings prove that Todorovic is a man of his word. Not a red meat eater? Not to worry: Roosters has a creative spread of vegetarian, pescatarian, and even a handful of vegan options. The brunch menu is particularly inclusive of special diets, focusing on smoothies made fresh from whole fruits, delicious pastries, and favorite American breakfast classics with a Roosters spin. There truly is something for everyone. Even greater than the amount of passion Todorovic has for food is how much he cares about community. He notes that “thriving local businesses” that work together toward a shared goal “are a sign of CONTINUED >
