Printer Friendly Version Of: Food: Where Where Cabbies Eat If there's a line of taxis out front, you can bet the food is good. By Liza B. Zimmerman February 1, 2006 I have spent a lifetime asking cabbies for restaurant tips. They have taken me to classic "Meat 'n' Three" places outside of Nashville and incredible mustard-based barbecue dives in strip malls in Charleston, and they helped me find incredible ceviche in my own hometown of New York City. As a relative newcomer to Seattle, I always wondered what culinary surprises lurked behind restaurant doors here with rows of taxis outside. So I took a little time to find out, chatting with drivers on the day and night shifts, and hopping a ride to some of their favorite joints. There are approximately 1,200 cab drivers in King County, according to Terry Davis, acting Pete Kuhns director of the county's Cab Drivers' Alliance. Almost all of them are male, with the exception of about five women, and they hail from 10 to 12 different countries, he estimates. "Most of the The tibs are tops at Tana Market, according to driver Wessen Darge. cab drivers are not really overweight," notes Davis. The reason becomes clear when you hear about the great ethnic eats they are digging into. "I eat mostly at the Addis Cafe," says Worku Melese, as he sits in the cab line outside Seattle's posh Fairmont Olympic Hotel. Kitfo (steak tartare, prepared with butter) and tibs (a dish of spicy beef or lamb cooked with onions and peppers) are his favorites. The Addis, in the Central District, has a bar in front and traditional Ethiopian dyed reed tables upstairs for dining. The meat and vegetable combo plate ($13.99) is enough for two, and the light Harar beer ($4) pairs well with the spicy food. After dinner, you can even shoot a game of pool at the table in back. The nearby Cafe Selam is a favorite of Fasika Moges, a driver who is also an accomplished painter (he shows his work at Columbia City Gallery). Moges goes to Selam for foul, a favorite cabbie breakfast dish. Spicy fava beans covered with scallions, tomatoes, onions, and hard-boiled eggs ($6), this luscious dish is often available all day. Selam's beef kitfo ($8) is spicy, and its beef tibs ($8) are succulent. They can be sampled with a glass of traditional tej (honey wine) for $3.50 or a Bedele Light beer for $3.25. Owner Abebu Wondem says she gets about 20 cab drivers a day, who come mostly for the tibs and her famous foul. Down the STREET is the Tana Market, a combination store and restaurant where Wessen Darge, an Ethiopian native who has lived in Seattle for 15 years, says they make the best beef tibs ($8) in town. They also stock bags of the sour flatbread injera, and loads of traditional spices like bessobila (Ethiopian basil); they even sell corn dogs and burritos. Darge also likes Meskel Ethiopian Restaurant down the street for its kitfo, which he calls "hot and yummy." Between meals, he goes to Starbucks for snacks. "I spend $1,200 a year there, and they have never given me a cup of free coffee." When not at Starbucks or the Tana, he notes he is also available "to go the Met or Anthony's if someone invites me." Darge also makes his own bread to share with other drivers. He says it's a healthy alternative to the butter- and egg-based breads he finds all over town. The flavor, he notes, is somewhere between cake and bread: It's "a bread that our moms make." You will have to catch up with him in the taxi rank outside the Westin if you want to try it. Daniel Tschnev, one of a few Bulgarian drivers in town, often eats at Firefly in Queen Anne, which despite being an Italian restaurant is one of Seattle's few places that serves traditional Bulgarian dishes. Cured meats like suguk are served along with a savory and filling pork casserole called kaverma, made with red wine and onions. Most of the cabbies I spoke to enjoyed a wide range of foods. "You get bored because it's gray and rainy, so you have to try different things," explains Moges. Also, many of them have been exposed to a wide range of cuisines through co-workers and their own travels. Darge, for one, has lived in New York, Dallas, Cairo, Stockholm, and Helsinki. Some cabbies reach for new foods during work hours, preferring to eat their traditional foods at home. "I used to be a professional cook, so I don't want to go to Indian restaurants," says Jai Deep. He says he prefers the chicken chalupa at Taco Bell and restaurants like the Crab Pot. Avtar Dhaliwal, another Indian driver, loves teriyaki and Chinese, as well as Japanese food. The one Indian restaurant he will deign to eat in is India Combo in Kent, where he goes for the chicken saag ($9.50), made with spinach. "Indian food in Seattle is really lousy," adds Jason, another Indian taxi driver, who declined to give his last name. His favorite snack stop? Burrito Loco in Ballard.

  • Smofcon's Local Color and Dining Guide
    SMoFCon’s Local Color and Dining Guide I know, I know - you don’t see San Jose as the culinary Mecca that San Francisco is (It hosted the first edition of Top Chef!), but I can tell you from 35 years of eating in San Jose, you’ll find some lovely places to dine in this wonderfully madcap little center of technology. I’m happy to present to you the places where I eat every time I get a chance to dine in Downtown SJ. The guide is organized by the type of food. The places I’ve included are among the better restaurants of San Jose. I’ve chosen not just the popular places, but also places where you can get a decent meal for a decent price. I’ve also chosen not to include fast food, but you can find a list of those included in the pages. You really don’t have to look too hard to find them. Most of the places listed are within walking distance of the Fairmont, and all walking directions are from the Fairmont to the destination. If the place is more than a mile away, I’ve simply included the driving distance. In those cases, Google Maps is your friend. Things being as they are, some of these places may have called it a day and boarded up the doors. This happened with three places between the first and the final draft of this guide. Hours might have changed. Chefs may have gone to greener pantries and the food might have gone downhill, so I strongly suggest you call ahead or check other reviews (and may I recommend Yelp.com, the restaurant sections of sfgate.com or metroactive.com for that).

  • National Dish
    National dish From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_dish A national dish is a culinary dish that is strongly associated with a particular country.[1] A dish can be considered a national dish for a variety of reasons: • It is a staple food, made from a selection of locally available foodstuffs that can be prepared in a distinctive way, such as fruits de mer, served along the west coast of France.[1] • It contains a particular 'exotic' ingredient that is produced locally, such as the South American paprika grown in the European Pyrenees.[1] • It is served as a festive culinary tradition that forms part of a cultural heritage—for example, barbecues at summer camp or fondue at dinner parties—or as part of a religious practice, such as Korban Pesach or Iftar celebrations.[1] • It has been promoted as a national dish, by the country itself, such as the promotion of fondue as a national dish of Switzerland by the Swiss Cheese Union (Schweizerische Käseunion) in the 1930s. Pilaf (O'sh), a national dish in the cuisines of Central Asia National dishes are part of a nation's identity and self-image.[2] During the age of European empire-building, nations would develop a national cuisine to distinguish themselves from their rivals.[3] According to Zilkia Janer, a lecturer on Latin American culture at Hofstra University, it is impossible to choose a single national dish, even unofficially, for countries such as Mexico, China or India because of their diverse ethnic populations and cultures.[2] The cuisine of such countries simply cannot be represented by any single national dish.

Back in 1978, during my first stay in the tropics, this particular combination set me on a path that led to this book. I had quit a humdrum cooking job and headed down to the Car- ibbeanÐBarbados to be exactÐto spend the winter with the two great loves of my early life: overhead waves and low 80s temperat- ures. Being a misguided youth, I managed to exist on hamburgers, potato chips, and Cokes for the first month. Eventually, however, I bowed to financial needs and the entreaties of my newfound local friends and began to eat the food they ate. I started frequenting the same restaurants they did and cooking with ingredients from the open-air markets. This was the first time I had immersed myself in another culture and its food.

  • Tyler Cowen's Ethnic Dining Guide – July 2004, Sixteenth Edition
    Tyler Cowen's Ethnic Dining Guide – June 2019, 31th edition. The Guide is also available in search-able, browse-able format. I wish to offer thanks to all those who offered dining suggestions and evaluations (keep them coming!). This has made the guide better, and longer, than before. It also means the guide has more unvisited places than before. I hope to get to them soon! You also should buy my book An Economist Gets Lunch: New Rules for Everyday Foodies. General remarks Restaurants manifest the spirit of capitalist multiculturalism. Entrepreneurship, international trade and migration, and cultural exchange all come together in these communal eateries. In the last twenty or so years, the Washington D.C. area has become a leader in ethnic restaurants. We lag behind New York City and Los Angeles, but we vie with Chicago and the Bay Area for third place in the United States. In some areas, such as Ethiopian cuisine, we are number one. This guide is intended to help individuals enjoy good food, and keep my favorite places in business. Effective consumer choice improves your eating and, in the long run, improves the quality of available restaurants. The better ethnic restaurants tend to have many of their kind in a given geographic area. Single restaurant representations of a cuisine tend to disappoint. Competition increases quality and lowers prices. The presence of many restaurants of a kind in an area creates a pool of educated consumers, trained workers and chefs, and ingredient supplies - all manifestations of increasing returns to scale. Many of the best ethnic restaurants on this list come from the well-represented cuisines.
