If it were in Chelan or Seattle or anywhere else, it would still do very well. The sticky bun was a highlight for me. They had a maple bacon cinnamon roll that was very tasty. I had a premade bbq cheddar sandwich that they heated up for me and it was SO GOOD. The cinnamon rolls were large and very tasty but I think other items are better. You can't go wrong! Highly recommend spending time here. We made it here a few times in just a 24 hour visit to Stehekin

On day one, my friend and I made a pitstop during a bike ride and split the marionberry pop tart which was huge and as delicious as it sounds - flaky and not overly sweet. The next day, we went back and shared the cinnamon bun (which lives up to the hype) and a slice of quiche that was flavorful, filling, and a great balance of hearty and light. I also ordered a hot latte which gave me the energy I needed for another day of exploring! The service was a little hit or miss - friendly but inconsistent. I can understand, though, as this place gets busy and the employees were very clearly working hard to keep up with orders. I appreciated the day old bin which is not only budget friendly but perfect for PCT hikers! The Stehekin Pastry Company felt like a true community hotspot as I saw locals, visitors, and PCT thru-hikers all gathering over coffee and baked goods. All in all, Stehekin Pastry Company is pretty much a must visit when you're in Stehekin. There is great food and a great atmosphere in one of the most beautiful, remote places you may ever visit. It's worth the wait!

Located in the Methow Valley and about 20 miles away from Winthrop, Twisp is home to the BEST FRIED CHICKEN IN THE WORLD! Throw a couple chicken breasts in the cooler on a hot summer day, and enjoy it by the river. I've sat around with my friends, eating fried chicken in our bikinis. It really doesn't get any better than that. Oh, and Hank's is a pretty cool market. Great deli, taxidermy animals, and yes, they honestly do care... just not about my waistline.

The seasonal grilled veggies with egg and sourdough toast was a very well presented dish and tasted good but veggies were mainly fried potatoes and corn. The chicken burger and fries were too greasy.

My first impression was one of the most terrible ever when the obviously unhappy guy at the front asked if we had a reservation. No, we did not have a reservation and it was an empty restaurant. This guy clearly did not like his job and management would be smart to do career counseling with him as soon as possible and turf him asap We were then greeted by another server who was terrific . Our experience was the food was good, the service was good and the first impression was the most horrible ever. I had the shakshuka and my wife had the succotash and we both loved our meal. Give it a try but if the jerk guy greets you, just leave

What a delightful little farmer's market in the heart of the Methow Valley! My friend and I visited…read moreon a sunny Saturday morning, and it was so fun to walk among the various vendors. We started at the produce stands, featuring all sorts of fruits, veggies, and other locally-grown delights. I enjoyed one of the most delicious, juicy peaches I've ever had - I wish I'd bought more! After the food stalls, wandered to the various arts and crafts booths featuring everything from spice mixes to any and all types of arts. The assortment and levels of talent were spectacular. Parking here was a bit difficult, but that's mainly a testament to how popular this little market is. If you're ever in Twisp on a Saturday, I highly recommend stopping by. Pro tip: they're only open until noon, so get there early.

I wasn't expecting to encounter a Sri Lankan food truck in Twisp, but what do you know? There it…read morewas, parked on-site at Twisp Works (also worth checking out). If you aren't familiar with the cuisine, Sri Lanka is a South Asian island country in the Indian Ocean that is a neighbor to India. While it is not part of India, I would describe the food as having many similarities, while being its own distinct cuisine. For example, we had vegetarian samosa at Fork, and while many of the elements were similar, the taste was different (spices, some ingredients). The curries were also distinctive, including a fruit curry (mango). The most unique dish appears to be a classic Sri Lankan item called kottu roti, which was chopped roti bread mixed and stir fried with vegetables and meat (or just veggies). This was my personal favorite, though the spouse was pretty into the samosas and the mango curry, despite "not liking mango." It was super hot that day, but luckily the picnic tables have tree cover for eating. Judging by the weekday crowd of workers on lunch, Fork seems like a hit with the locals, and it's easy to see why. This would be food hard to come by in some U.S. cities let alone a pretty rural area of the Pacific NW. Check it out if you are visiting or live nearby!

Excellent find on our way out of Winthrop. Most of Twisp Works was closed (weekday right around…read morenoon), but Lal's Fork food truck serving Sri Lankan street food was just getting started in their parking lot. Smelled good. Menu looked good. Great impromptu lunch! They offer curry & basmati rice plates, and you can choose whether you want 1, 2, 3, or 4 curries. We shared a 3 curry plate and selected mushroom, dahl, and mango (they had a selection of meaty curries as well). Food came out promptly, and we enjoyed it at one of several picnic tables under a large tree canopy which offered protection from the rain this day, but would be equally good for providing shade on a sunnier occasion. Each curry was so flavorful, it was hard to choose a favorite. Even between the two of us we probably consumed a little more than half and took the rest with us. It was just as delicious later on. And the hot sauce accompanying it was really spicy and tasty, too. Lots of teens showed up as we were finishing our meal, so this must be a popular high school lunch spot as well. Lal's Fork was such a happy and unexpected discovery!

I used to purchase staples like farro from my local supermarket. But my supermarket only carried…read morepackages in small amounts--1 lb bags at most, and most of those options were pearled, and they were a bit pricey for such a small amount. I figured, if I went to the source to get a supply of farro, it might be more cost effective, last longer, and it might have more variety while retaining a greater amount of nutrition. Bluebird Grain Farm checks all these boxes. They are located in Winthrop, WA, and do both wholesale and retail. Surprisingly, my local supermarket, located more than 2100 miles from Bluebird, has also started to display 1 lb sized bags from Bluebird. But I don't buy those. I go direct to Bluebird, and nab multiple 5 lb bags, where they are shipped to my door in a nifty cardboard box with an oval sticker that contains their logo. Which means instead of going through a pound of farro and buying more every week, I can get four 5 lb bags that'll last 4-5 months. Fewer trips to the grocery store. They have flat rate shipping, so it's advantageous to buy a bit in bulk. Of course, I order their whole grain Einkorn Berries. But they also grow Emmer Farro, Pasayten White Wheat, Methow Red Wheat, Sonora Heritage White Wheat, Heritage Rye, and more. They also present their grains in several ways: (1) whole, (2) mixed, (3) slightly cracked, (4) pulverized into flour, and (5) blended flours. They also come in various sizes to suit your needs: (a) 1 lbs or 2 lbs, (b) 4 lbs or 5 lbs, and (c) 25 lbs. At least their 5 lbs bags come nicely packaged for storage. It's durable plastic packing with their logo, which adds a pleasant look to the inside of the fridge. Nutritional info and a recipe also adorn the outer walls. Flavor-wise, their einkorn berries are wonderful, tasty, and beautiful to look at. Close to the bottom of the bag you'll find more crumbs, and overall, very minimal amounts of foreign material; usually if there is something that's not a berry included, it'll be a small piece of fibrous thing related to the hull. Those are easy to recognize and pick out. I like to cook it using some chicken stock and spices. It cooks well, doesn't expand drastically like rice or beans, and it's easy to eat. Cheers!
