Cultured Palate: Dishes from the Pacific Northwest

3. Salmon
Anyone who lives in the Pacific Northwest will tell you the salmon from this region is the best in the world. Salmon has been a central part of the local indigenous peoples’ cuisine for thousands of years, and their method of preserving it by smoking is still one of the most popular ways to serve salmon today. Any restaurant in the Pacific Northwest should have excellent salmon on the menu, but it’s more fun to buy it yourself from the fish stalls at Seattle’s Pike Place Market. You can watch the fishmongers throw around colossal salmon like they’re anchovies.
