11/20/11--10:35: Burger Night Returns to Whitehouse-Crawford! (chan 1913783)

In Walla Walla, Whitehouse-Crawford is highly-esteemed as one of the only fine dining restaurants in our small rural town.  From the outside, it seems out of reach for the average local, and more white tablecloth than I’m used to. I started working there a few months back and didn’t know what to expect at first.  [...]

I had 30 minutes to toss together a healthy, yummy side dish to share for a lunch work party and decided on yams and kale.  We used to make this at the PCC deli, we called it sweet potatoes and kale, and it was roasted and tossed with a roasted garlic balsamic dressing.  Mine was [...]
