‘we are part of nature,
and we’re all longing to be connected to nature again.
i think that’s why we want to eat in restaurants
where the food changes with the seasons,
where we’re eating something that’s alive,
where we’re connecting with other people.
it’s something we still have in our genes.’ -alice waters
