Where Art and Food Meet

Ask anyone for their opinion on where to go to get a really great meal in the Triad and nine times out of ten the one place that will get mentioned several times by different people is Crafted - the Art of the Taco. And for good reason - the Mother/ Daughter team of Rhonda and Kris Fuller have dedicated themselves to creating dishes that has all of the Triad talking with an almost cultish following!

Chef Kris Fuller is largely a self-trained

Chef who started as an apprentice with Chris Russell of B. Christopher’s fame.

After a brief stint at GTCC she realized that she’d rather focus her energy on being IN the kitchen and began training with other local chefs, as well as a year working in New York City. An unexpected health crisis in their family ultimately led them to the decision to embark on opening their own restaurant and in 2008, Kris and Rhonda

CRAFTED opened a fine dining restaurant in 2008 called The Bistro.

The Bistro was well received but Kris quickly realized that they were only serving a limited demographic, so she began incorporating some fun appetizers into the menu and started with tacos. The tacos became a hit and Kris realized that this was a food that they could sell to several demographics - not just the higher end clientele. The price point of the tacos was more affordable yet still chef driven. The tortilla essentially was a vessel for fresh ingredients and creativity as opposed to it ‘just’ being a mexican dish and when the building that housed the original Crafted became available the mother and daughter team said “let’s do this!” and Crafted - the Art of the Taco was born!

Continued from Page 6

Since opening the original location, Kris and Rhonda have opened two additional restaurants. 2015 ushered in Crafted - the Art of Street Food and another Crafted the Art of the Taco in WS in 2017. While the Winston menu is exactly the same as the GSO location, Street Food is a bit different and breaks from the original concept which gives Kris and her team the chance to create items that don’t necessarily go on a tortilla. Guests will find items such as pad thais, sandwiches, empanadas, short ribs, etc. Each of the three locations has its own unique vibe but still stays true to the Crafted roots with the large open kitchens and the “industrial meets modern” decor.

Kris and Rhonda have strong footholds in the Triad and believe in supporting the communities that they feed. Red Dog Farm, Urban Ministries, IRC, and Authoring Action are just a few of the community based organizations that they contribute their time and services to. When last year’s tornado devastated one of GSO’s poorest neighborhoods, Kris and her team jumped Continued on page 10

CRAFTED into action along with other local restaurants collecting needed items and serving food to those who needed it most.

When asked if they were considering opening any new locations any time soon, Kris chuckled and said that while that may be the plan a little down the road, right now they just want the dust to settle on the whirlwind that the past few years have been and just focus on the three current restaurants. One can wish for that to happen but until then, we’ll happily visit the three

Meridian Restaurant

By Sarah K Wilson

Recently, I stumbled upon something that changed my relationship with downtown WS. The day I met the owner and chef of the Meridian, I regained a sense of hope and joy in the Triad’s restaurant scene. Mark Grohman breaks the trend of monotony and mediocrity that has settled into far too many restaurants and strives to bring only the best to the table.

Grohman opened his restaurant back in February 2007, with a unique atmosphere that is casual and lowkey, yet sophisticated and refined. Meridian breaks the expectations of formality typically

associated with fine foods and has a business casual air to the place. Though the people may be casual, the food is robust, and only created with the highest quality, locally sourced organic ingredients that change seasonally. The menu is updated daily on the Meridian website, depending on inspiration and what is readily available from local farms. Grohman simply and brilliantly only wants the good stuff and believes in sourcing locally rather than importing.

Everything is scratch made in house, no cutting corners, and Grohman draws inspiration from the Mediterranean: Southern France and Northern Italian specifically to bring his passion Continued on page 14

to life. Even the bread, pasta, cheese, and sausage fall under the rule of “in house only”, and each dish is prepared from start to finish within Meridian walls. The magic in the kitchen bares witness to all with its open concept allowing anyone to peep right in, which yes, is most definitely intentional. The thinking behind the open kitchen is that there are no secrets behind what chef Grohman is bringing to the table, just good honest clean food prepared with full transparency, no deception nor funny business.

Meridian is truly a rarity pioneered with forward-thinking and strong moral that brings a whole different concept to the Triad, which leaves me with the insatiable need to show this gem off to all of my friends while basking in the bragging rights of this treasured find.

Goin’ With The Flow

By Ray Morgan

Fiddlin’ Fish Brewing Company is the “love child” of cousins Stuart Barnhart and David Ashe. The name comes from the cousins’ childhood summers in the Blue Ridge Mountains, hiking, fishing and listening to great music. When they decided to open a brewery, they wanted it to be a reflection of what they love.

The brewery, on Trade Street, in the old Big Winston Warehouse building, has a 15-barrel brewhouse producing traditional styles as well as an ever-changing cast of seasonals and one-offs. The Fish also has seven 60” TVs showing all your favorite sports, a 150” projector screen for big games, and regular live music, games, and events. The multiple oversized glass garage doors allow the taproom to be flooded with natural light and are opened when the weather is nice to make a much larger open-air patio!

Stuart started his career in banking and 16 |

finance but found beer was much more fun! David came from the hospitality industry and also had a passion for beer.

Stuart home brewed for 6-7 years and always wanted to own his own business. “I’m passionate about beer and I know how to make it, so I got started on this place,” said Stuart in a recent conversation. He moved from Galax, VA to WS when he was 5 so he considers himself a native now. David runs the taproom and Stuart runs the production side of the house. They opened in August 2017 and it’s been a blast since then!

When asked if things had gone according to plan, Stuart said he didn’t expect to be brewing things like fruit beers along with other patron favorites, and yet they have proven popular. The Fish has a Blackberry Sour beer, their first in the Sour category, which should be ready for the public by February. When asked why a Blackberry Sour, Stuart responded with a hearty laugh

He also hadn’t planned on distributing but they had extra capacity, and it evolved organically. In fact, January 2019 saw their first shipments to Raleigh restaurants in addition to a large number of vendors in the Triad and Charlotte.

“We’ve been staying busy since we opened and people continue to support us.

We work with local charities and have a lot events in the Taproom to support them.

We’ve done quite a bit with Stepping Stone Canine Rescue (www.LoveTheMutt.org) and, in fact, we’re going to be at the Big Sip again in March and that event benefits Stepping Stone.”

The Big Sip has been North Carolina’s first complete beverage festival started in 2012. The March 2nd festival, held on both floors of the Millennium Center, benefits Stepping Stone Canine Rescue and the WS Jaycees.

There are two types of tickets available, a VIP for $45 which is good for both the Mac & Cheese and Beverage tastings and gets you in the door when they open at 1pm. A $30 ticket allows Beverage tastings only and is valid after 3pm. There are a limited number of reduced-price tickets for those purchasing well in advance. Tickets and additional information on the event is available at www.BigSipFest.com.

Florence Unger and Olive Madison, that is, Neil Simon’s hilarious contemporary comic classic: the female version of The Odd Couple. Instead of the poker party that begins the original version, Ms. Madison had invited the girls over for an evening of Trivial Pursuit.
