Chef Chit Chat; Authenticity & Shifting with the Winds Cafe
June 25, 2019

42 years of farm-to-table expertise has made The Winds Cafรฉ, located in Yellow Springs, a culinary staple in Southwestern Ohio. Executive Chef Mary Kay Smith will tell you, โ€œFarm to Table has become such a battle cry and also commercial catch phrase to lure diners.โ€ She explains, โ€œYes, itโ€™s a business and we all have to make a living, but guests respond to authenticity. We try to use as much local food as possible, but realize the constraints of the Ohio growing season. Itโ€™s sometimes problematic for some customers not to have an out of season tomato on their burger or sandwich, but we try to impart the positive part of supporting locally sourced products rather than mega agribusiness.โ€
