Octave Day of The Holy Innocents
________
from Inlander
By Eliza Billingham
I grew up in a Chicago suburb that is over 80% white. It's continually mocked by surrounding 'burbs for its lack of diversity, which is probably merited. But if you're looking for Burmese food, you won't find it anywhere in downtown Chicago. You won't find it in Aurora or Bolingbrook or any of the far more diverse neighborhoods in Chicagoland. The only Burmese restaurant in Illinois is in li'l ol' Wheaton, my hometown. Oh, and Yelp ranked it the second best restaurant in the entire Midwest, in case you're quick to assume it's not any good. Food can totally change our perception of a place. A single restaurant can help us see our neighbors better. With this in mind, I've created a new yearlong project here at the Inlander. My New Year's resolution is to find 80 food and drink items in the Inland Northwest that come from 80 different cities around the world. I'm calling the project "Around the World in 80 Plates."

In a small Asian market in the middle of Wisconsin, a young Thai girl wandered through the aisles. She couldn't read the signs because she didn't know any English, but she picked out a few familiar items and handed them to the white woman who was with her. They took the ingredients home, and the young girl tried to cook something with them. "Nothing is good when you're 13," laughs Suwanee Lennon, who was that girl who came to the Midwest from Thailand when she was barely a teenager. "I brought noodles home, and then I didn't have sauces, I didn't have oil. You learn as you go." Learn she did. Decades later, Lennon is the author of Simply Suwanee, a food blog dedicated to authentic Thai food, as well as a professional photographer, cooking demonstrator, public speaker and entrepreneur. The daughter of an American soldier and Thai mother, Lennon was raised by her aunt in a leprosy village in northeast Thailand until she was adopted by an American woman when she was 13. Lennon now lives in Spokane and celebrates both her cultures by teaching Thai cooking techniques to an American audience. Follow Suwanee Lennon's Thai cooking blog at simplysuwanee.com

HOLY INNOCENTS
________
from Inlander
By Eliza Billingham
I joined the Inlander team this May and have felt behind the eight ball ever since. Not only is the area's food scene a tight-knit community, but it changes fast. From what I can gather, it's changing faster and faster each year. Two of my first stories covered openings of restaurants that are now closed. But the Inland Northwest had more openings than closings this year, and though we lost some beloved establishments, some new long-term favorites may have been born. This year, Spokane also saw the openings of three new Middle Eastern grocery stores, reflecting the city's growing diversity and culinary potential, both for dining out and at home.

Understanding European soccer leagues can be complicated. But watching a match with your favorite beer doesn't have to be. At least that's the thought behind Hat Trick Brewing, a comfy, casual new taproom on Maxwell Avenue in Spokane's West Central neighborhood. Three friends turned an old cafe into the neighborhood's biggest living room, complete with an ever-changing selection of small-batch brews and fresh bites, plus every early morning Premier League "football" game.

Another one bites the dust. Lilac City Boxing Club and The Knitting Factory had to cancel Thursday's Bartenders Brawl due to a slew of official referees, judges and time keepers backing out of the evening's fights. There aren't many USA Boxing-registered referees in the area, and even fewer want to trek into the city for a weeknight fight so close to Christmas. Event organizer Danny Thomas is hoping to reschedule the event sometime next year.

Sin' means "warrior" in Chamorro, the language of the people indigenous to the Mariana Islands, including Guam. It's a fitting name for Nicholas DeCaro, professionally known as Chef Sin'. He opened his Island Style Food food truck the month after COVID hit, but it grew so fast he just opened a brick-and-mortar location on North Division Street on Nov. 15. And he's not done yet. The chef, artist and entrepreneur already has more plans in the works to keep expanding, keep improving and keep up the good fight.

Ilived in Vietnam for almost two years, a country filled with fresh street food, outdoor markets and unparalleled ph stands. But one meal I'll never forget came during a nasty bout of homesickness when I just had to have a Popeye's chicken sandwich. Few things are as comforting as the familiarity of your favorite franchise. This fall, three new chains opened new locations in the Spokane area, each with the secret ingredients for flavor and nostalgia.

It's a Christmas miracle, Or technically, just Miracle. Miracle is a Christmas cocktail pop-up that started in New York City and has spread to locations all over the world. You can't apply to Miracle — Miracle comes to you. Six months ago, in the dead heat of summer, Miracle approached Roman Harner, general manager at Volstead Act in downtown Spokane, to ask about his Christmas plans. Did he want to be the first bar in Spokane to host Miracle?

The drama. The close-ups. The beef. Carmy Berzatto and his tough crew at the Original Beef of Chicagoland have made us all want to be chefs (or at least fall in love with a chef). If a trip to Chicago's River North neighborhood isn't possible this year, you can still spoil the Jeremy Allen White fan in your life with a perfect The Bear-inspired gift to tide them over until the third season (finally) arrives next year. Although, if your holiday season is going to be wracked with family trauma, you're already well on your way to reliving an episode or two.
