When not documenting the lives of our friends and neighbors, Bend Magazine staff members are out drinking in all that Central Oregon has to offer. Think of it as a quality control mechanism for a lifestyle-driven publication. In keeping with our bounty theme for fall, we asked some of our staff, “What’s your favorite way to enjoy the seasonal flavors of Central Oregon?” “Fall means hunting season for me, and with that usually comes my favorite locally harvested plate of the year. It’s hard to beat a fried mule deer backstrap with caramelized sweet onions and a baked potato on the side. Pair it with a seasonal Oktoberfest ale and there are no other meals I look forward to more.”
> Jaden Bales, digital
“I hit the NorthWest Crossing Farmers’ Market for fruits, vegetables and honey every Saturday. When it comes to my favorite local bites, it’s Mother’s for breakfast and Zydeco for dinner. If the kids have a vote, it’s The Lot. ”
> Denise Ullman, operations
“I love a good ‘progressive’ day on Galveston. Start with locally roasted coffee at Megaphone. Down a fresh-squeezed juice at Mother’s. Shop at the produce stand. Meet for lunch at Primal Cuts and sample some fresh hop beers. Round out the afternoon with a seasonal dish from one of the food trucks at The Lot.”
> Megan Oliver, special projects
“I love still being able to dine al fresco in September and October, which are my favorite months in Central Oregon. El Sancho and Bistro 28 are my go-to spots to eat outside when it still feels like summer in the fall.”
> Heather Johnson, publisher
