Synopsis
The Local Food Movement has superseded organic by understanding food as community, rather than commodity. People want to know their farmer, not only to reassure them about ecological practices, but to complete a circle of social relations around the production and consumption of food. In the ruins of Wall Street we have built an economy that is all about integrity. This movement has made turnips and lard chic, and elevated home cooking to a celebration. The result? Small-scale farming is a viable livelihood once again. Local food is just the beginning of the rebirth of artisan economics. What can we do to repair the economy? Welcome to an elegant dinner where there might not be enough chairs for everyone, and the guests help cook. Welcome to An Underground Restaurant.Book Details
