" Readers in the Northwest undoubtedly know about Greg Higgins, chef and co-owner of Higgins Restaurant and Bar in Portland, Ore., since its opening in 1994. His basic philosophy is &amp;quot;Food is Community,&amp;quot; and you can read that phrase on the website of his restaurant, and hear him talk about it here.   One of Chef Higgins&amp;#039; tomato choices.  He also chose this Mayflower Pole Bean. Chef Higgins describes himself as an educator, and wants to do more than just feed his patrons. Nor is he just a customer to his suppliers \u2013 he grows a garden at home and shares the knowledge gained from trying out new crops with his lengthy list of purveyors.  Chef Higgins is also involved with the Seafood Choices Alliance. By serving only sustainable, regional seafood he focuses not on the limitations it sets, but rather the stretch it gives their imagination and creativity in the kitchen.  Chef, cookbook author, cooking teacher, contributing food writer, and multiple James Beard Award winner Deborah Madison has earned her reputation as an authority on vegetarian cooking. As the founding chef of Greens Restaurant in San Francisco, she became an icon (according to Wine Spectator) for the use of fresh, local produce. She may be the only member of our Dream Team who doesn&amp;#039;t currently have a restaurant, but you&amp;#039;ll see here how she keeps busy. (You may also wonder when she sleeps!)  Here is a charming video about Chef Madison&amp;#039;s book &amp;quot;What We Eat When We Eat Alone.&amp;quot; Enjoy! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
