James Beard, the Pacific Northwest and the birth of the foodie movement | Oregon Experience 

From razor clam soufflé to her famous currant teacakes-Mary Beard loved to cook, and always with the freshest seasonal ingredients.
Her son James embraced his mother’s passion for food. And even as the proclaimed “dean of American cookery” later moved away and traveled the world, James Beard would forever champion Oregon as a food-lover’s paradise.
Today, good food has become a movement. ""Fresh and local"" is the mantra of cooks throughout the Pacific Northwest. Yet many have forgotten the name of the man, the native Oregonian, who may have started it all: James Beard.
