early a.m. breakfast; Kim Boyce's Good to the Grain; return of The Rocquefort Files; shark's fin

For our April 20th show, Breakfast in Bridgetown author Paul Gerald talks up late-night/early morning munchies spots.

Portland transplant and pastry chef Kim Boyce drops by to chat about Good to the Grain, her new ode to baking with whole-grain flours.

Then we bring you a special treat: the return of the Roquefort Files, KBOO’s homage du fromage. Join Justin Miller and Stuart Margolis, KBOO’s cheese wizs in residence, as they review a spectacular cheese from Switzerland that’s not your mama’s swiss.

Finally, we revisit the controversial issue of eating shark's finsA bill to ban the sale of shark's fin in Oregon has a public hearing Wednesday afternoon. Rep. Brad Witt (D-Clatskanie) briefs us on his bill. And we speak to the West Coast Seafood Processors Association's Rod Moore about the push to exclude spiny dogfish (shark) from the ban. It's a valuable sidecatch for Oregon fishermen and a less expensive source of shark's fin in Chinese cuisine.
