After years away from high-end kitchens, she returned to Spokane’s culinary scene to open a bakery of her own, Fireweed Baking Co., in a Browne’s Addition’s retail and office building called The Dormitory.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=0X6K5t_1CudtmAa00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0X6K5t_1CudtmAa00" width="1200" height="857" ><figcaption>Owner Lynette Pflueger Young Kwak</figcaption></figure>A descendant of the Spokane Tribe of Indians on her mom’s side, Pflueger’s new bakery aligns with her heritage.“Our priorities when it comes to sourcing [ingredients] is local, sustainable — including being organic — and from producers who have the good of the Earth in mind,” Pflueger says, adding that she tries to purchase from BIPOC- and women-owned companies when possible. The fresh-baked goods fluctuate, but a favorite thus far has been the canelés, a bite-sized French pastry with a custardy interior and a rich, caramelized crust that has to be baked in special copper molds. Savory options include breakfast and lunch sandwiches, housed in scratch-made biscuits or wheat bread. <h2>ANATOLIA GRILL </h2>2630 E. 29th Ave., Open Tue-Thu 11 am-8 pm; Fri-Sat 11 am-9 pm; Sun noon-8 pmTucked away in a South Hill strip mall off 29th Avenue, Anatolia Grill took over the small space that was formerly a Pizza Hut. Turkish made-from-scratch main course items include marinated and grilled kebabs, with protein options including beef, lamb, chicken, shrimp and plant-based falafel. Each is served with a side of aromatic rice and a choice of two salads. For some snackier bites, appetizer options include Turkish-style baba ganoush, a roasted eggplant, pepper and tomato dip. If you want an assortment of things to share with the table, opt for the mixed appetizer plate that also includes hummus and tzatziki.

Crafted from a simple dough, feteers can be savory or sweet. Although Greek gyro meat isn’t found in classic recipes, a gyro feteer ($19) pairing the rotisserie-carved lamb-and-beef mix with shredded mozzarella and cheddar, freshly diced tomatoes, green olives and green pepper, is a popular choice. The chicken shawarma feteer ($19) swaps the gyro meat for seasoned chicken. In the most direct appeal to American tastebuds, there’s even a hot dog feteer ($18). Sweet feteer options include honey, Nutella or custard versions. (E.J.
