Foregoing all the typical local food movement bullshit, Honesty, a new restaurant in Silver Lake, is offering truth with their farm-to-harvest-to-storage-to-processing-to-packaging-to-distribution-to-table restaurant.
Honesty, which boasts that it’s not totally full of shit, gets it’s food shipped in from around the world, and they don’t give a hot fuck if you don’t think that’s good for the environment.
“I don’t give a hot fuck if you don’t think it’s good for the environment.”
“It’s $12.99 for our four cheese ravioli, for that price, it takes a lot of steps to get the food on your plate.” Said Diane Hodges, owner of Honesty, “And you know what, it tastes good to people who aren’t pretentious pricks that need to believe their food comes fresh from the farm.”
Hodges suspects that many of the “farm-to-table” restauranteurs are ass hats capitalizing on a trendy catch phrase. “You think those Forage clowns go to a beet farm, a walnut farm, a baby greens farm, an olive farm, and milk a goat just to make you a beet salad? Then do that every week for everything on their menu? That’s insane.”
At press time, Hodges was pouring a patron a glass of water she proudly admitted was from the tap.
