The Road Forager: Dish of Seattle
Dave Werner took us to the cafe next to his gym called Dish. I used to live about a mile from here and loved walking down from Phinney Ridge. Pictured is an amazing 4 egg Greek omlette with fetta cheese, red onions, kalamatta olives…damn it was good! The fruit was great as well: blood orange,… Continue Reading
The Road Forager: San Francisco Airport

The Zone: Too Many Carbs?
I received this message from Bian of Potomac CrossFit. Many, many people find the carb levels of the base zone to be too many carbs too often. This may be heresy in some circles, but it’s the facts. In Mastering the Zone Sears presents a flow chart for dealing with the too many carbs situation.… Continue Reading
