WELCOME

TO INLANDER RESTAURANT WEEK, 2017 Thursday, February 23 to Saturday, March 4

It’s now been five years since the Inlander and Visit Spokane took a look around our culinary scene and decided that the food made here, and the people making it, needed to be spotlighted. Thus, Inlander Restaurant Week was born as a chance to showcase our region’s booming restaurant industry, and also bring the dining masses out of their homes and into restaurants at a time of year when the dining industry is typically slower than usual.

The event began with 53 restaurants around Spokane, but has since grown to feature 101 eateries not just in the city, but throughout Coeur d’Alene and beyond. This year, 24 restaurants from North Idaho are participating in the event — a significant jump from previous years.

Inlander Restaurant Week also delivers a significant economic boost to the region. Not only do restaurants benefit from the flood of diners who come in to taste the creative, fixed-price (see “Prix Fixe” below) menus of original items, but the event also brings people from out of town to stay at hotels, attend concerts, plays and sporting events and visit other local businesses. Although hard numbers for Inlander Restaurant Week haven’t yet been

tracked, a similar but smaller (85 eateries) restaurant week in California’s Sonoma County generated an economic impact of just over $3 million.

Visit Spokane CEO and president Cheryl Kilday says that the event, having grown significantly, has become not just a treat for locals looking to taste their way around their hometown, but also a way to show the world that the Inland Northwest’s growing restaurant industry is something to pay attention to.

“The success and continued growth of Inlander Restaurant Week confirm to us that our region is a culinary destination for visitors and locals alike,” she says.

Before you head out to enjoy this delicious slice of the calendar, we’ve compiled everything you need to know about Inlander Restaurant Week right here. We give you some insight from a few of our hottest chefs, a list of events to check out after you’ve eaten and some highlights from the menus — as well as the menus themselves, of course.

Once you’ve taken that all in, head out and grab a table somewhere. n

PRIX FIXE

MENUS 28

You’ll see this phrase, or its English translation — fixed price — repeatedly during Inlander Restaurant Week. Essentially, this means that there’s a flat fee for your meal — either $19 or $29 depending on the restaurant — and you get to pick from three different options for each of three courses. But don’t worry; if you want a tried-and-true favorite from the standard menu, most restaurants will have their regular menus available.

CHARITY SPOTLIGHT

EVERYONE N E E D S T O E AT With your help, Second Harvest fights hunger in the Inland Northwest

T

WASHINGTON STATE CRAFT BREWING

he annual team-up between Inlander Restaurant Week and Second Harvest proves two simple, important truths: Everyone loves food, and everyone needs it. Second Harvest provides food to some 55,000 people every week (picture all the runners at Bloomsday) for the one in seven adults and one in four children who struggle with hunger in the Inland Northwest.

“When times are tough, food is the first thing to go,” says Julie Humphreys, the network’s community relations manager. Most people using Second Harvest are the “working poor,” or people that just don’t make a living wage, she says.

The network runs completely on donations from grocery stores, farms, manufacturers and food drives, and supplies 250 food banks and meal centers; it’s also opened a kitchen to teach people how to cook with the fresh produce and grains often donated.

Last year, Restaurant Week raised money for 6,000 meals. (Every $1 donation provides 5 meals.) Humphreys says donations in February are especially critical since heating bills are up and donations are down — donors have “giving fatigue” and less money after all the holiday spending.

“Restaurant Week really helps us get over that winter hump,” Humphreys says. “It’s a great match.”

WHO SECOND HARVEST HELPS

Edwin Swain, 60, worked as a concrete finisher for more than 30 years, and then

one day he woke up and couldn’t move his shoulders. Suddenly, he couldn’t work or pay the bills, and he and his wife were homeless.

Second Harvest helped fill the pantry when his disability checks didn’t, and soon he was also bringing back food for the 13 families in his neighborhood.

“Everyone has pride,” Swain says. “Everyone wants to be able to feed themselves. The people using Second Harvest just need a little help, but they just didn’t like people to know; they’ve never faced that before.”

They found housing two years later, and until recently, Swain lived with his wife, mother-in-law, his daughter and her husband and two grandsons. He remembers making jelly with his grandkids over the years using bushels of fruit provided by Second Harvest, often in the summertime.

“We had lots of fun,” Swain says. “We had apricot, strawberry, blueberry, and we made some great PB & Js.” His grandsons have also been to several cooking classes at Second Harvest’s kitchen, where they learned to make pizza. Swain says he’s grateful that so many people are participating in Restaurant Week.

“We can’t afford to go out, but we like Second Harvest because it provides real, fresh food,” Swain says. “It makes me glad to know there are so many people helping fight hunger in Spokane.”

INSIDE THE MENUS

L O O K I N G TA S T Y We scoured all 101 menus and these are just a few of the items that caught our eye

Thank You to Our Sponsors

FOR MEAT LOVERS

VEGETARIAN

BEEF CHEEKS

WILD MUSHROOM PASTA

Iron Goat Brewing Co. Taproom Menu says: “Goatmeal Stout braised beef cheeks, pea purèe, Parmesan polenta, roasted veggies and watercress.”

We say: For the uninitiated, beef cheeks are, indeed, the muscles from the inside of a cow’s mouth. Slow-cooking this cut provides a delectable piece of meat that Iron Goat says you should pair with their Imperial saison.

PORK WELLINGTON

Bardenay Menu says: “Dried apple-stuffed, mustard-rubbed pork tenderloin, wrapped in puff pastry with demi-glace.”

We say: There’s a bevy of pork main courses on this year’s menu, and this one shouldn’t be overlooked. If you like the combination of sweet and savory, this is a great choice — there are dried apples inside of this thing, for crying out loud.

BRAISED SHORTRIB STROGANOFF

The Gilded Unicorn Menu says: “Wild mushroom sauce, whipped crème fraiche, green onion, egg noodles.”

We say: Remember the beef Stroganoff your mom would make using the chunks of randomly sized beef bits off the supermarket shelf? This is not that. It’s made with braised shortribs and employs crème fraiche and wild mushroom sauce for what’s sure to be a rich and filling main course.

Central Food Menu says: “Hedgehog mushroom, walnut sauce, herb bread crumbs.”

We say: It might be a vegan-friendly dish, but there’s no denying the meaty goodness of the hedgehog mushrooms at the center of this entrée.

KALE AND RISOTTO BALLS

Geno’s Traditional Food & Ales Menu says: “Two hand-formed risotto balls featuring kale, roasted garlic and ricotta cheese, then deep fried and served with our rustic marinara and basil pesto.”

We say: You don’t think you like kale? Trust me, you’ll like it deep-fried inside a couple of risotto balls alongside delicious garlic and cheese.

ROASTED BEETS

Durkin’s Liquor Bar Menu says: “ Smoked cheddar, pickled egg, radish sprouts, Pomelo vinaigrette.”

We say: Anyone who’s sampled the Durkin’s carrots and Brussels sprouts is aware that the place knows its way around delicious vegetables. The combination of smoky cheese and other flavors make this a go-to beets dish. ...continued on page 8

DESSERTS FUDGE

Saranac Public House Menu says: “Alternating layers of chocolate and white fudges topped with a raspberry coulis and mint chiffonade.”

We say: You could break down this dish into its various components and flavors, and any one of them on their own would make for a sweet treat at the end of the meal. The combination of them all makes this a must-try.

CANNOLI BENEFITTING

Uva Italian Menu says: “Housemade cannoli shells filled with a ricotta whipped cream and dipped in dark chocolate chips. Covered in powdered sugar.”

We say: After enjoying a hearty Italian meal and leaning back for some coffee in a post-meal daze, something sweet is required. The chocolate, powdered sugar and whipped cream in this classic Italian pastry does the trick.

PEANUT BUTTER PIE IN A JAR 2017 menus are now online InlanderRestaurantWeek.com

Search by restaurant, neighborhood or cuisine.

Casper Fry Menu says: “Creamy peanut butter mousse, vanilla whipped cream, peanut butter cookie crumbles.”

We say: Hello, it’s delicious creamy peanut butter mixed with whipped cream and cookie bits? You could throw Nutter Butters in a jar and we’d be on board.

INSIDE THE MENUS

L O O K I N G TA S T Y

Raviolo al Uovo from Ruins

Continued...

SEAFOOD FILET OF SIRLOIN AND LOBSTER

Beverly’s Menu says: “Six-ounce Snake River Farms Kobe beef sirloin, with four-ounce butterpoached half lobster tail, Yukon whipped potato, broccoli rabe, Cabernet demi-glace, bearnaise, and warm butter.”

We say: Surf-and-turf to your heart’s content with this hearty entree combining the best of Beverly’s worlds, and all the savory side fixin’s you could want.

BACKYARD FISH TACOS

The Backyard Public House Menu says: “Blackened mahi mahi, tropical slaw, avocado cream, cilantro, white corn tortillas, chips and salsa.”

We say: If you’re looking for a new local twist on this street food classic, the Backyard’s version should be on your list.

CRAB MAC & CHEESE

RAVIOLO AL UOVO

UNIQUE DISHES

PHO-RITTO

The Barrel Menu says: “Fresh pasta tossed with our house four-cheese sauce and Dungeness crab.”

We say: At a place that’s been doing seafood in Spokane for decades (this spot used to be the S.S. Beryl, and has been a restaurant staple since the late ’60s), you can never go wrong with this comfort food classic that adds fresh crab to balance out all that rich cheese.

DAN-DAN NOODLES

The Blackbird Tavern + Kitchen Menu says: “Udon noodles, pork, pickled vegetables, sweet and spicy bean sauce.”

We say: At a local spot that’s well-known for its amazing burgers and Southerninspired comfort fare, the Blackbird takes a stab at this savory ramen dish (udon, by the way, is the thick Japanese noodle used in ramen). It’s a good bet they’ve nailed it, too.

Ruins Menu says: “Raviolo al Uovo, braised beef, ricotta, caramelized celery root, créme fraîche.”

We say: For those who didn’t know, until now, what this dish is (and it’s totally OK if you didn’t; we had to Google it, too), raviolo al uovo is basically a large noodle pocket with a runny egg yolk inside.

Have no doubt that Ruins’ version of this decadent dish will be impressive to both see and taste.

Lantern Tap House Menu says: “A burrito version of the traditional Vietnamese noodle soup with steak, brisket, onions and cilantro on a bed of housemade slaw, drizzled with Sriracha and hoisin sauce, wrapped in a garlic herb tortilla. Served with pho broth for dipping.”

We say: Like another contemporary American counterpart on this list, the Lantern is getting creative with its own take on pho, the popular Asian noodle dish we all know and love. And it makes total sense! n

10 INLANDER RESTAURANT WEEK 2017

T R AC K I N G T R E N D S If you’re in the mood for something oddly specific, let us help you with that

ADVANCED EATING

There are going to be some items on these menus that you have to do a bit of Googling to figure out, but don’t let that scare you off. That’s all part of Restaurant Week. If you want to expand your culinary vocabulary, here are a few things you can try. The Copper River Salmon at WILD SAGE might not sound to out of the ordinary, but it’s served with onion soubise, a throwback sauce made simply from beef stock, onion and butter.

At BONSAI BISTRO, you’ll find the tuna dashi a la furansugo. That’s a tongue twister of a name for a dish that combines seared bluefin tuna, shiitake mushrooms and asparagus made in a tarragon dashi cream sauce.

If you want to get a little adventurous, try the oxtail pate at ITALIA TRATTORIA. A pate, if you didn’t know, is meat, in this case oxtail, that’s ground into a paste and often mixed with spices and vegetables.

For dessert, you can impress the table by knowing what to expect upon ordering the peanut butter terrine at CORKHOUSE. “Terrine” can refer to something similar to a pate, but it also means anything chilled in a rectangular terrine pan. Here, it’s peanut butter draped in sea salt, dark chocolate and maple.

DRINK YOUR MEAL

There’s a Drink Local pairing with every menu, but there are also restaurants that are making booze an actual course you can choose ... because there’s nothing wrong with drinking part of your dinner.

For dessert at CHARLEY’S, you can forgo your fork altogether and opt for a lemon meringue pie martini.

And at PROHIBITION GASTROPUB, there’s a new take on an old dessert with the beer float. It’s a scoop of ice cream dropped into a dark beer — they recommend the Dark Persuasion German Chocolate Stout from Icicle Brewing.

Other spots, like J.J.’S TAP AND SMOKEHOUSE in North Spokane, is offering a first course consisting simply of your choice of locally produced beer, wine or liquor, in the event that you needed help with the whole Drink Local thing.

GET FISHY

Seafood is always a big part of Restaurant Week, and some specific trends emerged. One of those is the appearance of steelhead, most of it locally sourced, on the menus. CLINKERDAGGER has a Columbia River peppercorn steelhead, while SPENCER’S has a cedar plank grilled steelhead served with cauliflower and romesco.

There are also a number of restaurants serving trout. The RUSTY MOOSE has Idaho rainbow trout served with red potatoes and veggies, while LAGUNA CAFÉ is serving up a grilled steelhead trout.

LOCAL SOURCING

One of the things to take note of during this fabulous week-plus of eating your way through the region is the way in which our restaurants utilize the bounty of our corner of the country. Many spots will be sourcing their ingredients from close to home. At TABLE 13 you’ll find dishes made with the legendary sweet onions of the Walla Walla area; the RED TAIL GRILL is making its ragout with lentils from the rolling hills of the Palouse.

The meat is also not traveling far to arrive on your plate at restaurants like HILL’S, which is featuring a top sirloin from Double R Ranch. THE GLOBE is serving bison from Montana. n

FIRST-TIMERS

THE NEWCOMERS Welcome these eateries to Inlander Restaurant Week

Beef Cheeks from Iron Goat

O

ne of the benefits of Inlander Restaurant Week is the opportunity to try out the latest additions to the culinary scene.

There are quite a few new kids on the restaurant block since our last Restaurant Week; we’ll get you caught up with a few.

TORTILLA UNION

Tortilla Union is the first offshoot brand for the Spokane-based Twigs Martini Bar & Bistro chain. On the menu, you’ll find items that would be at home in a Mexican restaurant, as well as many that wouldn’t.

“I would call Tortilla Union Southwestern cuisine... but some people might call it Tex-Mex,” says Trevor Blackwell, vice president of Twigs and its parent company, QOL Restaurant Group.

Try a Southwestern Caesar salad, smoked watermelon mélange, or Union guacamole for a first course, with ribs, barbacoa enchiladas, or a Southwestern burrito for a second. For dessert, choose between a chocolate decadence (flourless) cake infused with espresso, a draft beer, or a shot of tequila.

INLAND PACIFIC KITCHEN

According to owner Jeremy Hansen, you can expect “Flavorforward and technique-driven food that’s meant to make you think about what you’re eating and experiencing, other than eating to be nourished,” he says. ”You’re eating art, and these are small plates, but I’m not going to have five to six things on a

12 INLANDER RESTAURANT WEEK 2017

plate — it’ll be three ingredients done really well.”

Choose from three types of ramen for the first course; pork, crispy soybean or catfish, all with smoked parsnip and potato and sous vide carrots on the side, for the second; and smoked vanilla, saffron, or black garlic and sesame gelato for dessert.

IRON GOAT BREWING TAPHOUSE

Last spring, this popular brewery moved downtown, near several other breweries. It was meant to be a comfortable place. “A big part of having the common tables and no TVs is that we want people to meet and talk and make friends. It’s meant to be a social place and not so much just, ‘I want to watch a game and be on my own,’” said Iron Goat co-owner Greg Brandt upon the pub’s opening.

The menu features Neapolitan-style pizzas, meats and cheese plates, a beer cheese soup and other pub fare.

Choose from dolled-up roasted Brussels sprouts, a countrystyle paté, or a beet salad for the first course; beef cheeks (braised in Goatmeal Stout), vegetarian “Farrotto” or bratwurst for the second; and a beer float or lemon blackberry crème brûlée for dessert.

REMEDY TAVERN AND KITCHEN

A throwback white-tile floor denotes the 1920s pharmacy theme that owner Matt Goodwin and crew originally conceptualized

(hence the name), but admit they strayed from in order to fully realize the restaurant. You’ll likely find something to refresh you at this neighborhood restaurant on the South Hill.

The executive chef is Justin O’Neill, who also developed the menu at the Boiler Room and the Backyard. Choose between poke tartare, barbecue wings, or fire braised beef for the first course; crab mac, chile verde, or vegan puttanesca for the second; and “choclava,” shortbread trifle, or chile chocolate cake for dessert.

SOUTH HILL GRILL

Cory Ehrgott opened his own take on a beloved spot last fall. He kept some of Maggie’s most popular items on his menu — the chicken pot pie, Maggie’s signature salad, the Mediterranean Benedict at breakfast — as well as a large array of gluten-free items. He added fresh steaks and a full liquor license to the mix of familiar fare, all of it made “from scratch, with fresh ingredients.”

“We’re not trying to do anything crazy with the menu, just good foods done right — back to the basics,” Ehrgott says.

Try an appetizer sampler, tomato bisque, or a mini Maggie salad for the first course; chipotle chicken fettuccini, a Western burger (with house BBQ sauce) or a steak for the second; and a fresh chocolate chip cookie, bananas Doreen, or a chocolate flourless torte for dessert. 

NORTH IDAHO

G E M S TAT E E AT S Cross the border during Inlander Restaurant Week for a taste of Idaho

I

nlander Restaurant Week is not restricted to the greater Spokane area. It extends to North Idaho, where a culinary scene is rapidly growing and the scope of the cuisine expanding.

Choose from pizza, burgers and pub food, like at FEDORA PUB & GRILLE, which knows how to feed a crowd, having generously offered free Thanksgiving meals to the public for the past five years. For Restaurant Week, it’s the portions that are generous.

Try the potato skins piled high with smoked pulled pork as an appetizer, a six-ounce Kobe beef burger with Gorgonzola for the entrée, and classic New York cheesecake for dessert.

At TIMBER GASTRO PUB, enjoy a laid-back atmosphere and top-notch cooking. Start with battered cheese curds, followed by duck confit pot pie or savory pot roast made with local Selkirk Abbey Brewery’s “Guilty” porter.

North Idaho restaurant choices also include eclectic bistros and fine dining, and places that combine both, like BISTRO ON SPRUCE. Start with their tempura fried calamari and piquillo pepper sauce, then dive into orange-glazed salmon and butternut risotto, with just enough room for dessert, like the espresso crème brûlée.

There’s also a pleasing assortment of ethnically diverse dining options this year. Have Middle Eastern food at WHITE HOUSE GRILL, Asian food at BONSAI BISTRO and THAI BAMBOO and Brazilian food at GRILLE FROM IPANEMA. Recently settled into its new Riverstone location, Grille from Ipanema will not let you leave hungry. Try the full churrasco experience — servers bring you as much freshly grilled meat as you’d like — and save room for dessert, including the succulently sweet and coconut-y quindim, a traditional Brazilian treat.

A mainstay since Restaurant Week opened up to North Idaho restaurants three years ago, FLEUR DE SEL is French fine dining with a unique Mediterranean twist.

“Being a French restaurant we are perceived ... as very formal,” says Chef Laurent Zirotti, who runs the Post Falls restaurant with wife Patricia.

“Restaurant Week is a great formula for bringing people into the restaurant who would not usually come, then it’s our job after to make them come again,” Zirotti says.

At Fleur de Sel, try fork-tender, house-smoked pork tenderloin with tangy bacon jam and a black garlic sauce that Zirotti works on for more than four weeks.

Save room for dessert, including Zirotti’s walnut torte, adapted from his grandmother Giuseppina and served with caramel sauce… and with love.

Or have your dessert in a glass. Up North Distillery’s honey spirit martini has cherry and orange notes and is one of many local beer, wine and distillery purveyors paired with this year’s restaurants. 

anya Broesder is a long way from home, having grown up on a dairy farm in Iowa.

“As my mom says, I have champagne taste because I grew up in landlocked Iowa and I love seafood,” she says. “But growing up, seafood was fish sticks, and things like that. Whenever we went out, I always wanted something more expensive than everyone else in my family.”

Broesder says she became interested in food and cooking early on, hanging around her grandparents’ restaurant.

“But my grandmas have always cooked.

We started Christmas baking the day after Thanksgiving with one grandma, and we baked up until Christmas. There were freezers and hiding places so no one would find anything. We canned corn, we made tomato sauce, and we had gardens on every farm we had. We cured and butchered and did everything.”

After high school, Broesder was ready to spread her wings and made the decision to leave her super-small town and decided she

would give cooking a shot, and to do it far, far from home. Following culinary school in Portland and externships at restaurants, she landed at Northern Quest Resort & Casino, where she began working at their Woodlands restaurant (which has since been phased out). Her Iowa roots still called to her, however.

“I left for two years and went back to Iowa and was an executive chef for a very small casino,” she smiles. “They thought they were huge.”

She returned to Northern Quest more than seven years ago, and became Masselow’s chef in March 2014.

Last year was Masselow’s first time participating in Inlander Restaurant Week with Broesder at the helm, and she’s excited about an encore.

“Masselow’s isn’t as scary as people think it is,” she says. “We rebranded as a steak house two years ago. Yes, we still have linens for napkins, but we don’t have linens on our tables anymore. The lights are dim, but you can come in your jeans.”

Masselow’s beef tenderloin Although she wants her guests to feel at home, quality is her No. 1 priority.

“Local is a huge thing right now, and it’s going to be a huge thing forever,” she says. “I want to continue to do as much of that as possible. We’re also going to continue to hold Masselow’s standard, so our scallops are going to continue to come from the East Coast, because they’re the best scallops I’ve tasted; they’re sweet and tender and delicious.”

Broesder is looking forward to continuing to innovate, but she doesn’t have much time for trends.

“I’m not a trendy person,” she says. “I like to keep things simple. Food likes to shine for what it is. I don’t like a plate that’s got six different sauces on it. We’re here for the food.

If you’re not buying quality food and you have to give it six sauces to taste good, then what are you serving?” n

MEET YOUR CHEF

JESSE NICKERSON Bistro on Spruce

“I

’ve been cooking my entire life, since I could reach a stove,” says Jesse Nickerson.

Originally from Boise, he came to Coeur d’Alene for a change.

“I moved here to get away from being a chef, just to not have the responsibility. It kind of always works out that I end up taking leadership of the kitchen and I did that here, and I enjoy it.” Nickerson became the chef at Bistro on Spruce in April 2016, after working there for about a year.

After assuming the role of chef, Nickerson went about adding his own flavor to the menu.

“I spent a lot of time at Asiago’s, downtown in Boise, which is a high-end Italian restaurant.

I do a lot of Italian-Latin fusion stuff. I like the flavors from Italy, Central America and South America.”

He estimates that the menu has changed by 75 percent since last April.

“Besides the top sellers, the menu is my menu,” he says.

Beyond the food, Nickerson is also passion-

ate about changing the way the restaurant is perceived.

“I think the food here has been a little bit too serious,” he says. “My attitude is, if you’re going to pay for something, then we’re going to do our best to make it for you, whether it be on our menu or not. If we have the ingredients and the time, we will make whatever we can.”

Although he’s been a part of Inlander Restaurant Week before, this is his first as chef.

“Restaurant Week is a lot of fun, because we get a lot of people in who don’t normally come in. We get to open customers’ eyes, new customers especially, I think they’re going to want to come back more now that we’re doing some different types of foods,” he says. “I like to use a lot of fresh ingredients, and we do most of our stuff here from scratch. Anything we can get away with doing from scratch, we do.

We’re doing a slider as a menu item this year and the bread is from scratch; we hand-dip the onion rings for it, and we have local chanterelle mushrooms on top.”

For Restaurant Week, and beyond, Nickerson is planning to put Bistro on Spruce back on the map.

“I want to get this restaurant back in the talk around town,” he says. “Word of mouth is such a huge thing in this business, and I feel like we’ve lost some of our popularity. I’d like to bring that back. I’d like to get a lot more people in here trying the new food, and just seeing what I have to offer as a chef.” 

18 INLANDER RESTAURANT WEEK 2017

lthough Mike McElroy was born and raised in Spokane, the city wasn’t the best place for him as a kid.

“I was always in a lot of trouble when I was younger,” he says. “I ran away from home, went down south and landed in New Orleans. That’s really when my cooking career took off,” McElroy says.

Once there, and only 18 years old at the time, he started working in several famous kitchens.

“I worked at a lot of the bigger restaurants in New Orleans: Commander’s Palace, Red Fish Grill, Cochon, Herbsaint,” he says.

He left New Orleans to work at Lulu in San Francisco, just before Hurricane Katrina, but New Orleans (and his former employers) called him back. Then an injury threw an unexpected wrench into the works.

“I broke my leg really bad at a heavy metal concert,” says McElroy. “My wife’s family is all from Houston, so we ended up in Texas.”

After a long recuperation, McElroy began cooking again, this time in Houston.

“That’s when the press really started noticing me,” he says. “I got ‘Best Top 10 New Restaurants’ in the city by the Houston Chronicle one year for a sandwich shop I built in a bar,

and then I ran a couple of my own restaurants.”

A visit to Spokane to see family this past summer turned into a move. McElroy started working with a childhood friend, the current chef at Scratch, before discovering Casper Fry. With his experience, he knew he could help them bring some authentic Southern food to the table. They agreed and he became the chef in September of 2016.

Immediately, McElroy began putting his own personal touch on the menu. “My gumbo has won some awards down South, so obviously that went on. We tried doing some of the weird-to-northern-people Cajun stuff. Some of it flew and some of it didn’t. I brought in my sous-chef Nate; we’ve known each other since we were 5. Between the two of us, we have a lot of traditional New Orleans background, so that’s kind of the direction we’re sending the restaurant in.

“I spent time at a butcher shop down in Houston, and it kind of changed the way I cook forever,” says McElroy. “I’m a lot more particular about what kind of meat I serve, what cuts, where they come from. I do a lot of things with larger cuts of meat, as opposed to buying a box of pre-packaged steaks. I’m always asking, ‘How big of a piece of meat can

McElroy’s return to the region has brought some surprises for him.

“I got here in the height of huckleberry season. Everybody’s got them. It’s cool to see how many different people show off the same ingredient in different ways.”

This is McElroy’s first Inlander Restaurant Week, but he is no stranger to the format. In Houston, there are restaurant weeks spanning the entire month of August. McElroy is excited about the creative challenge that the week presents.

“I want to blow people’s minds on a budget,” he says.

“That to me is always the biggest challenge. What can I do that’s not simple? I think nothing we do is run-of-the-mill as far as what people in Spokane are used to, but to really take that extra step without charging an arm and a leg? That’s the fun part.” n

You’ve got options: Shop (for quirky gifts at Boo Radley’s); check out the Spokane River; or shred our local mountains.

OUT-OF-TOWNERS

IF YOU’RE VISITING...

Inland Northwest attractions for those just visiting

GO SHOPPING DOWNTOWN

We’re excited about the future of our downtown shopping area. There’s now an Urban Outfitters by River Park Square downtown — in addition to an Apple Store and Nordstrom — making the hipster crowd happy.

There are also some local favorites like Auntie’s Bookstore and Boo Radley’s, one of the weirdest and most awesome places to shop in Spokane.

CHECK OUT THE RIVER

FOOD & DRINK CELEBRATION

SPOKANE VALLEY June 15-18, 2017 www.CraveNW.com 24 INLANDER RESTAURANT WEEK 2017

As spring (hopefully) nears, the Spokane River starts to rampage, meaning that the Spokane Falls downtown are a sight to see. If you want more hiking to go along with your water viewing, head to Riverside State Park, about 10 miles northwest of downtown.

VISIT A BREWERY

Many Inlander Restaurant Week participants already feature some of the Inland Northwest’s best beers. For the full variety, visit the breweries themselves, as there are several downtown. If beer’s not your thing, check out one of the whiskey bars downtown or one of the many wineries that have tasting rooms throughout the city.

PLAY IN SNOW

We’ve had a cold, snowy winter here in Spokane. It hasn’t been good for our roads, but it’s been great for local ski resorts. Within an hour from Spokane are Mt. Spokane Ski & Snowboard Park and 49 Degrees North Ski Area, a little further north. Or head over to Idaho,

with Schweitzer Mountain Resort, Silver Mountain Resort or Lookout Pass Ski and Recreation Area.

EXPERIENCE THE LEGAL CANNABIS MARKET

Cannabis is legal in Washington (and has been for more than two years) for those ages 21 and up. Visiting local pot shops is a common thing to do for out-of-towners, but there’s more incentive during Restaurant Week.

Instead of grabbing bag of chips when you have the munchies, go out for some some delicious food from a local restaurant. For more information about the local marijuana scene, visit inlander.com/greenzone for a guide and a map of the region’s stores.

GO GAMBLING

There are two popular casinos in the region: In Airway Heights, west of Spokane, there’s Northern Quest Resort & Casino, run by the Kalispel Tribe. There’s also Coeur d’Alene Tribe’s Coeur d’Alene Casino in Worley, Idaho. Both casinos have restaurants featured in Restaurant Week.

WATCH THE ZAGS

The Gonzaga men’s basketball team is one of the country’s best. They’re good every year, but this year they may have their best chance to make the Final Four.

You might have trouble finding tickets for their games, but you can watch them at any number of local sports bars. Being in Spokane, surrounded by Zags fans, it’s the next best thing. 

DRINK LOCAL

THAT ’S THE SPIRIT Why drinking locally made beer, wine and spirits is a win-win for the region

D

rinking local isn’t just about walking to your neighborhood pub for a pint; it’s a win-win mindset that benefits a range of folks, from the producer to the consumer to the communities in which they all live and work.

That’s the approach with the Inlander’s Drink Local campaign, which you’ll see plenty of during this year’s Inlander Restaurant Week. Each menu features a Drink Local option, giving you a chance to taste a locally produced beer, wine or spirit at a discounted cost.

The spirit of Drink Local is always on display at Spokane’s No-Li Brewhouse, which has positively impacted Spokane and surrounding communities in a number of ways. More than 60 No-Li employees live in Spokane, contributing to its economic base through taxes and local spending. No-Li’s use of local products — Northwest barley malt, Yakima hops — supports neighboring agriculture, which in turn helps other regional brewers in pursuit of raw materials.

No-Li’s success — they were named 2015 National Beer Wholesalers Brewery of the Year and 2016 Washington Large Brewery of the Year — has enabled them to give back to the community, too. In addition to charitable donations and partnerships, they’ve created innovative programs, such as an upcoming collaboration with the Spokane Symphony or the LocALE Monday program honoring a different Spokane neighborhood per month.

“We’re making the financial pie bigger,” says No-Li owner John Bryant, whose past experience includes vice president of sales and marketing at Deschutes Brewery and chief operating officer of Odell Brewing Company.

In the past five years, says Bryant, Spokane has increasingly become known as a craft beverage destination, similar to places like Fort Collins, Colorado, and Bend, Oregon.

The region’s brewers benefit through collaboration and pushing each other to improve, says Bryant, while the customer benefits from good products that are consistently obtainable. Local restaurants carrying local beverages — not only beer, but wine and distilled spirits — also benefit, including from increased tourism as Spokane’s reputation as a food and beverage destination grows.

Although the number of local craft breweries has outstripped wineries and distilleries, they share some of the same sentiments about drinking local.

Liberty Lake Wine Cellar’s Mark Lathrop says that small-production wineries give you access to the winemaker and the wine, including how it was made and what its unique features are. “It makes drinking wine a little more fun than it would usually would be,” he says.

“We’re all doing this because we love it,” adds his wife, Sarah Lathrop, who notes that many winemakers in the region also have a day job. “When you’re doing something that you really enjoy, versus just paying the

No Li’s John Bryant bills, it comes across to the people that you’re serving,” says Sarah.

“And most of the time it carries through to the product, too,” adds Mark.

That’s important, says Bryant, who cautions that it’s unfair to ask a customer to buy local just because it’s local. The product still has to be the best.

“We’re working really hard to honor the promise that some of the best beers are made in Spokane,” he says. 
