We were honored to be mentioned by @wsj alongside other great farm-to-table restaurants in Roanoke in in their Fall Road Trip article. Roanoke is a special place with some amazing restaurants and it's great to see that recognition.

"Better food makes better friends and I want to foster that with the best food I can make." - The River and Rail Executive Chef Luke Larson The first in a series of posts introducing some of the people that make The River and Rail a special place, this one introduces Luke, the man in charge of what ends up on your plate. About the first dish he was ever proud of: "The first dish I was ever proud of was this dumb little meatball slider. An Italian meatball, some tomato sauce, basil, all on a slider bun. Looking back it wasn't very creative or interesting, but it was mine, and the feeling of having your first dish on a menu never really goes away." What he likes to cook at home: "I'm a stew guy at home. Easy to make a large batch and put away for later. Gumbo is my go to when I have the time for it." About working at The River and Rail: "Working at The River and Rail is (almost) always exciting. We get the opportunity to work with great local products from amazing people all the time. I get to work creatively with great coworkers and friends. There really isn't much about my job that doesn't excite me." We feel lucky to have a guy like Luke at the helm of our kitchen.
