Lush edible garden. Local, seasonal fare. What could be better than brunching at Seattle's Terra Plata?

Tillamook's Oregon-based farmers have been doing dairy right for more than 100 years, so you're in for a brunch you can feel good about.

Here's a taste of what you'll be eating (see the full menu here):

• Enjoy the best of the South with Tillamook Special Reserve Extra Sharp Cheddar grits, a poached egg and a pimentón gravy drizzle.

• Indulge your sweet tooth with creamy Tillamook Old-Fashioned Vanilla Ice Cream and spiced chocolate ganache, profiterole style.

• Toast to custom cocktails, like the Blushing Cow, featuring Tillamook Oregon Strawberry Farmstyle Greek Yogurt with an herbal tarragon twist.

The best part? It's all family style, so you can share your dairy with the ones you love most.
