Wine can have flavor notes like leather or vanilla or minerals. Local, seasonal food can also have distinct notes of flavor. And those notes can lead a cook to come up with unexpected food combinations. That's how the chef at Seattle's Canlis restaurant develops his specials.

Jason talks with KUOW's Megan Sukys about how to identify flavor notes and a few creative combinations he's developed like watermelon and geoduck.
