Few chefs serve food like

Edouardo Jordan whose

Seattle eatery offers up

soul-food staples (pulled

pork fried chicken candied yams) while

educating diners about their complex

history. JuneBaby’s walls are lined with

artwork featuring slaves and its website

includes an “encyclopedia” of menu

ingredients that explains for example

how corn bread became popular among

slaves. (It didn’t require a fork and a

knife.) “This is the food that fed a lot of

people to build America” says Jordan

a St. Petersburg Fla. native who last

year became the irst black chef to win

the James Beard Award for Best New

Restaurant. “We shouldn’t hide that. We

should embrace it.”

THE WORLD’S GREATEST PLACES 2018

The United Arab Emirates

became home to two of the

world’s largest indoor theme

parks when Warner Bros. World

opened in July. The Abu Dhabi Yas

Island park—which cost $1 billion

to build and spreads across 38 acres

just a little smaller than the garden

of Buckingham Palace—is designed

to entertain all kinds of Warner

Bros. fans and also ofer them a

reprieve from the region’s often

sweltering heat. Attractions are

grouped into six “neighborhoods”

including Gotham and Metropolis

(from the DC Comics universe

featuring superheroes like Batman

Superman and Wonder Woman)

and Dynamite Gulch and Cartoon

Junction (with animated classics

such as Road Runner andLooney

Tunes).—Gabby Raymond
