Caiterliriian Cullowhee's Galloping Gourmet Visits the Blue Squirrel by Todd Higginson Staff Writer It takes pure excellence for me to give a restaurant a perfect rating. Therefore, I have decided that these top-notch restaurants deserve credit, so I have created a reward. The Blue Squirrel in Cullowhee meets my high standards. I am proud to announce that The. Blue Squirrel is the first recipient of "The Food Critic Award"- an award that goes only to the area restaurants that obtain 4 forks from yours truly. From the uniqueness of the food for this area to the cozy atmosphere of a small local restaurant, Blue Squirrel pleases all of the senses. The Blue Squirrel features items such as gourmet focaccia pizza, delicious wraps, and "groovy" veggie burgers. All of the ingredients are of the highest caliber, and fresh produce gives a hearty local flavor. Organic tomatoes in the dishes taste like candy. All of the sauces are from scratch and give the food a distinct signature. Owner/operator, Alan Berkot is as fresh and charismatic as the food. He is quite unpredictable and may dash to the piano and start to play a little jazz. Berkot is willing to make the dish as unique as your taste and is sure to bring a smile on your face. Mr. Berkot was delighted to receive my award. The Blue Squirrel is open weekdays from 11-3. You will see a diverse variety of customers-from students to professionals in suits, and the occasional local Jackson County natives. This establishment is a tiny place—it only seats 18 people—but you are sure to feel comfortable. The atmosphere is quite unpretentious. The walls are lined with blues albums, and each table has its own personality. You never know what kind of plate your food will be served on, but it will definitely be a colorful one. These are just some the little things that make eating out fun! I decided to order the sun-dried tomato pesto wrap and I was not at all disappointed. My wrap was packed full of tender chunks of chicken along with rice and black olives. I love artichoke hearts, so I had Alan add some for a little extra fee (but well worth it). The pesto sauce gave this wrap a nice flavor, and the sun-dried tomatoes provided a tangy kick. Many restaurants make pesto sauce much too oily, but Berkot's pesto is perfect. Along with my wrap, I had the choice of homemade potato, pasta or garbanzo bean salad. I Smoky Mouataifi Center Jr arentiinig JPirogFam. 1 caches o kills Jr or .nlcalttlky F amities Foul Foods Fear the Food Fancier's Fickle Fork of Fate. chose the pasta salad — it was delicious. Not too vinegary or not too oily, with fresh diced carrots, celery, and black olives; it made for a tasty side dish. Presentation was superb -- my food looked picture perfect. Everything at The Blue Squirrel is around the $5.50 mark, and the most expensive item is only $6.75.1 am sure you could find a less-expensive lunch in our area, but you will not be able to find the overall quality and freshness that Blue Squirrel offers. If you are a commuter, professor, or resident who needs a break from the cafeteria blahs, the close and convenient Blue Squirrel is your best bet for lunch. Blue Squirrel also offers coffee, cappuccino, and espresso if you just need to take a break. The Blue Squirrel has a comfortable coffeehouse-like atmosphere. The Blue Squirrel has been open for approximately 14 months now. If you have not had a chance to check it out, then I strongly suggest that you do so. You will not be disappointed! My congratulations to Alan Berkot. We are lucky to have a restaurant like The Blue Squirrel so close to our campus. Take advantage of the opportunity to eat at a fantastic local restaurant while you are a student! Disagree with my review? Agree? Just impartial? Let me know what you think.
