Imagine that on your lunch break you purchase gourmet food from the window of a 1962 Airstream trailer. In Seattle, the chefs from Skillet are making this possible. Skillet goes to different street corners every day concocting meals depending on what's available locally and seasonally. They've become famous for their Kobe-style burger served on brioche with bacon jam, blue cheese and arugula. Besides tasting delicious, the food is also reasonably priced, between $6 and $10.
According to an article from Forbes, Skillet sells about 200 lunches daily. Chef Danny Sizemore states that he opened up Skillet, with his partner Joshua Henderson, in order to fill a void in Seattle: high-end street food. The Forbes article points out that the concept is not entirely unique. In Minneapolis, there's Chef Shack that sells bison burgers topped with homemade condiments. And, in Marfa, Texas, Food Shark offers homemade hummus and falafel with crisp romaine lettuce from a truck.

It was eight years
ago, and still I remember every bite. I was in Seattle for one night and I was going to live it up. We ate at Wild
Ginger, and we feasted on what was then still on the very edge of food fashion: Pan-Asian fusion cuisine.
I've been a
Seahawks fan since I was old enough to say "football," and couldn't be happier that my favorite NFL team is
finally taking its rightful place in the Superbowl. But what matters more than a city's fortunes on the gridiron? Well,
their food, of course.
