Local sourcing, environmental sustainability and nutrition – especially children's nutrition – are among the top trends for 2014 on America’s restaurant menus, according to a survey of 1,300 professional chefs. According to survey sponsor National Restaurant Association, these trends have been gaining momentum for several years. Five items gained most in trendiness since last year: nose-to-tail/root-to-stalk cooking, pickling, ramen, dark greens, and Southeast Asian cuisine. Items with the largest drop in “hot trend” rating were Greek yogurt, sweet potato fries, new cuts of meat, grass-fed beef, and organic coffee. Highest rankings as perennial trends went to fried chicken, Italian cuisine, frying, barbeque, and eggs benedict.
