Tomatoes and oregano make it Italian; wine and tarragon make it French. Sour cream makes it Russian; lemon and cinnamon make it Greek. Soy sauce makes it Chinese; garlic makes it good.–Alice May Brock

Alice May Brock was the inspiration for Arlo Gutherie’s  album Alice’s Restaurant. She was a painter, designer and owner of Alice’s Restaurant, formerly known as the Back Room Restaurant in Stockbridge, Massachusetts in the U.S.
