We need a concept to eat well

"This will just be another concept. I'm hearing "natural, farm-to-table local comfort food" ..."

Sounds scrump.

It's a throwback to living in the first half of the 20th century when many rural and small-town folk ate that way most of the year without thinking much about it, except for the work involved.

Buying from or bartering with local farmers. Maintaining a home produce garden. Making deals with the neighbors who had fruit trees and berry bushes. Canning produce and storing produce in root cellars to extend the harvest season. Hunting, fishing, and trapping.

I doubt that my great grandparents called their kids inside to wash up and eat their concept.

Anyway, it's about time this concept went mainstream for the modern day urban hipsters.

I'm looking forward to an eatery that offers seasonal delicacies, such as turtle soup, pan-fried squirrel, deer steak, parsnip fries, parsnip soup, and mashed parsnip. I hope that the eatery will contract with local frog giggers.

I suppose that I would try the sous vide muskrat once. Just once. Growing up, I trapped muskrats with Dad but only for the pelts to sell to fur dealers. I passed on eating 'rat.
