    Relaxing and eclectic stop on I-5
    Kelvin Y.

    Eclectic stop on I-5. Good food at a fair price. The Spinach and Mushroom Quiche I gad was delicious and prepared with care. Children's menu items were enjoyed by both kiddos. Bonus: Live music when we arrived for a late lunch. Service was fast, friendly and efficient.

    Tomato Soup, quiche, and a salad

    I was driving home from Portland, and found Nature's Kitchen in a listing of places to stop off the 5. WOW!! The delicious, quality food, sweet ladies working here, and quaint, small-town atmosphere were exactly the rejuvenating break from driving that I needed. The server was very warm and friendly, like the grandparent of a close friend. The food was cooked and seasoned to perfection, allowing the ingredients' flavors to remain prominent. There was a musician playing rock songs from the 70s to 90s on an acoustic guitar that drowned out conversations from the other tables and enhanced the atmosphere. This will be a regular stop whenever I'm passing Yreka.

    Food was fresh (I had a Cobb salad). They kept our drinks full. Fun stuff to look at while you wait for your meal.

    Last Thanksgiving my husband and I cooked Thanksgiving dinner for 15 people. I ordered the best…read moreorganic free-range turkey that Natural Grocer sells. I think I was the first person to place my order that year. I ordered a 16 pound turkey. I intended to cook it in my Oster Roaster, which yields a very moist, almost rotisserie - style result. I was one of the first people to get to Natural Grocers to pick up my turkey. When I got there the person bringing the turkeys out from the back brought out a huge 22+ pound turkey and said this was all she had left. I protested that I had reserved a 16 pound bird and that I didn't need a 22 pound turkey. She looked at me in a very un-compassionate way and said, "This is all we've got. Take it or leave it." I took it because I had to feed 15 people on Thanksgiving and they wanted turkey and dressing!!! My husband and I brined it in the 24 hours before Thanksgiving. It's a good thing that we did because a 22 pound turkey was far too large for our Oster Roaster. The lid would not close!!! OMGosh. Michael and I just looked at each other in horror. We knew all the sides that we had planned to prepare and cook partly in our oven while the turkey was roasting in the Oster. We put it in the oven to roast and within an hour the skin had turned dark black. Michael asked, "What are we going to do?" I said "Cook the dang bird. Then we'll take the skin off and pray that it is moist underneath." In the meantime we got to work in the kitchen on all the sides. Now bear in mind, an Oster Roaster cooks a perfectly tender, moist turkey in far less time than roasting it in a convection oven. We had no idea if that turkey was going to be done by the time our guests started arriving. We just persevered. What else could we do? I will admit that we considered serving them steaks, which we would've had to defrost but we decided that somehow we would pull a rabbit out of the hat. In this case, an edible turkey. When our probe timer told us the internal temperature was where it needed to be, we removed our totally black turkey from the oven. Michael said to me, "I'll handle this. You finish the sides." I gave him a huge platter, at his request, and carving knives and -- with immense relief -- continued to work on everything else, all of which were completed right on time. Our guests began to arrive and I plyed them with good wine, which made them very happy. I said nothing about what we had gone through that day and, in a few minutes, Michael walked in from the outer kitchen with the huge turkey platter arranged perfectly. My brilliant husband had removed all the skin and arranged the white meat on 3/4 of the platter and the dark meat on the remaining 1/4 just like a caterer. It was PERFECT!!! I told the guests to help themselves and I went to my room, shut the door, and collapsed. I didn't know it but Michael did the same thing. We had been under so much stress that neither of us could eat a single bite. One of our guests was Matt Sheehan, a gifted local chiropractor (Family Chiropractic). He came to my room and worked on me for about 30 minutes and I was restored. (Did I mention he is gifted?) When I came out everyone was raving about the food. Michael and I were both very relieved about that but the stress we had been under because of the turkey was awful. We made our minds up right then that we would never buy another turkey from Natural Grocers ever again. If you can't trust them to honor the advance reservation that you make for a turkey for such an important day ... well, you can't trust them at all. This year I bought a beautiful fresh Mary's organic turkey for $2.99 per pound at ShopNCart in Ashland with no stress at all, I am very pleased to report. A friend of ours is going to smoke it for us and, believe me, he is a world class smoker. When one door closes, another opens!!!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I didn't connect the dots that this is the same grocery store as the one in Glenwood Springs, CO until I purchased a shopping bag. Great prices and selection. I wish there was a store in Northern CA.
