Isabell and I just returned from a relaxing trip to Maui. Not only was the trip a nice break from the drab Pacific Northwest weather, but it was a great opportunity to eat great food at some of the best restaurants in the islands. Here are the highlights:
Dinner at Mama’s Fish House. While Mama’s is [...]

We finally made it happen, dinner at Kirkland’s newest addition, Trellis. Last Thursday we took a stroll down to the restaurant, located in Kirkland’s Heathman Hotel , for an evening with friends, Sarah and Jason. We had been talking about venturing to Trellis for months (ever since it opened last fall) so we were very [...]

I placed an order with AmazonFresh on Wednesday and I was pleasantly surprised with the transaction, and thought I’d share. The fresh produce arrived before 6 AM on Thursday; clean and packaged nicely. Aside from fruits and vegetables, I bought some prosciutto and Italian sausages (they arrived in a temperature-controlled bag with ice pack). Even [...]

Last night Bell and I had our friends Sean and Liz O’Connor over for some appetizers and wine. It was yet another reminder that some of the best times spent are at the table with friends. The conversation was fun, the food delicious and the wine excellent. Our fare for the evening was Thai pork [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on the latest food and wine experiences for me and Isabell. For good reason: we got married on September 15th!
We honeymooned in Napa-Sonoma and that of course brought about plenty of amazing food and wine experiences, not to mention a fantastic hotel we stayed in. Instead of trying [...]

Last Friday was Isabell’s birthday and we already had plans to have a little party at our new place. So that meant that I needed to find a good lunch spot to take the place of a birthday dinner. Neither of us had been to Tom Douglas’s Dahlia Lounge, so we decided to give it [...]

After going so big on Wednesday night at Canlis, Bell and I wanted to pace down and have one glass of wine with a light dinner. We headed over to a new spot in Belltown called The Local Vine.
Be warned: wines by the glass are not cheap - look for $12-15 minimums. However, every wine [...]

This past Wednesday was my birthday and Isabell’s is sixteen days later. The mere proximity of dates was grounds for a double celebration, so we made a reservation at a Seattle institution: Canlis. The night started out in a surprising and memorable way. We were brought two glasses of top vintage Krug champagne courtesy of [...]

Last weekend Isabell and I decided to try out a restaurant near our new place on the east side of Capitol Hill. We dropped into The Harvest Vine, a great Basque-style tapas restaurant. The place is very small and quickly fills every night, so we were lucky to grab two seats at the copper bar [...]

Last night Isabell and I went out with our very good friend Emily - current assistant director of Seattle’s biggest indie movie company, absolute wine stud, and major foodie. We started the night at Seattle Cellars for their Thursday night tasting I mentioned in an earlier post. We have a flight of wines from Goose [...]
