News & Events


The Seattle Food and Wine Experience will be on Sunday, Feb. 26.  It will feature wines from around the world, beer, cider and locally distilled spirits. Twenty chefs will prepare gourmet bites. A few restaurants worth mentioning are Luc, The Coterie Room, Cantinetta and Wild Ginger. Tickets are $49 in advance or $60 cash at the door.

Le Gourmand/Sambar in Ballard is closing this summer. I’ve never eaten here, but I’ve always wanted to try it, especially Sambar. A friend of mine celebrated her husband’s birthday here about a month ago and had a wonderful dinner. The only bit of good news about the restaurant closing is that it’s the owner’s decision—not the economy forcing them out.

  • There are two new food trucks coming to Seattle: Happy Grillmore will serve burgers and fries in Redmond and Off the Rez will serve Native American fare  in South Lake Union, Fremont and late nights in Capitol Hill.  I’m not thrilled about the name of the truck, and I expect someone or some group to have a field day with the slang.
