Foodie Q&A: Ryan Zale of Local Chop & Grill House
I have a lot of Polish ancestry and my grandmothers on both sides were really good cooks. So I ate a lot of Polish dishes – pierogies and sauerkraut and kielbasa have a very, very warm place in my heart. My grandfather had a pretty decent sized garden, so we would work with him and eat out of the garden. When I was a kid, for money, I used to milk cows. Drinking raw milk. Nothing beats that.

Foodie Q&A: Jake McDaniel & Garrett Herring of Local’s Underground
Everything comes from your neighbors. We source almost all ingredients from Rockingham County. Then, food doesn’t have to be shipped around from warehouse to warehouse, there’s less stress on 81, less vehicle emissions. It’s fresher. The produce is not stressed out because it doesn’t have to be refrigerated and shipped and moved and boxed and unboxed and wrapped. You can taste the difference.
Foodie Q&A: Wesley Engelbrecht of Sage Bird Ciderworks
I grew up in Northern Virginia, specifically in the Chantilly-ish area. We ate a lot of home cooked meals from my mom. In early high school, I wanted to be a chef and own a restaurant. I ended up changing that career path and I went more into science and math for my undergraduate at James Madison University.
