Spokane, like the rest of America’s cities, has undergone a foodie revolution. Business is booming, with 17 percent more restaurants since 2007, according to the Washington State Department of Revenue. We had planned to go to what is supposed to be the city’s best restaurant, Ruins on North Monroe Street, but its small dining room didn’t have the capacity to handle a larger party, the line was already long at 6:30 p.m. on a Friday, and Sean Nelson was hangry.
