As much as I love being in the kitchen, I find a lot of inspiration while traveling. Many times, it’s not specific recipe or food ideas, but the authenticity that comes from a small mom and pop establishment or a modern take on a classic at a hipster coffee shop. Old Town Truckee had a wonderful mix of mom pop, hipster, and Sierra mountain frontier all mixed together.
We even spotted some fine truck specimens right in downtown Truckee.
