Steven Siler

About

Steven W. Siler is a firefighter-cum-chef serving in Bellingham, Washington.  Long marinated in the epicurean heritage of the Deep South, Steven has spent over 20 years in the much-vaulted (?) restaurant industry from BOH to FOH to chef.  In addition, he has served as an editor and contributing writer for several food publications.  When not trying to shove food down his fellow firefighters’ gullets, he enjoys sailing and sampling the finest of scotches and wines, and has an irrational love affair with opera.

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;line-height:normal;font-size:small;">I had bought my wife &quot;Signature Tastes of Bellingham&quot; last year for Christmas. Not only did she love it, but so does her family from out of town. When they visit, they look through the book and pick the places they want to eat out at. We had been anticipating the second book in the series &quot;Signature Tastes of Boise&quot;, and I'm pleased to say that it lives up to the original in every way. The introduction to the cities culinary history is very fascinating and informative, and the recipes and restaurants featured are one again top-notch. The author must be quite passionate and motivated to be able to compile such a comprehensive and complete list of local eateries. I can't wait for more cities to be released in this series.-Glass House, Amazon.com</span>
