little ms foodie

damn! I can't even comment to everyone as there are so many great looking dishes!!! Elie, I've been wanting to make rice balls for a while, do you use a certain recipe? Thursday night we cooked a whole salmon in salt. served it with israeli cous cous and chanterelles grilled and pan fried with wild greens and onions. this weekend we went camping, husband was in charge of planning dinners. We made veal scallopine with grilled walla walla sweets the first night (actually very good and simple done over a campfire!) and steaks rubbed with rosemary, grilled corn and pan fried potatoes the next.

I don't refrigerate hard boiled eggs, tomatoes (kills the flavor!), worcheshire, soy, etc sauces. I also really question what we fridge and what we don't every time I visit my girlfriend who lives in Paris- they call it a jam cupboard for a reason right? edited to add that we use a butter bell and also change the water every couple of days otherwise there is mold.

Jason, Dayne loves gin so we will get a gin milkshake for sure!! thanks for the tip. I'm pretty sure that Ugleisch's closed a few months ago. The family wanted to retire I read. Hope the city and people stay safe during this huge hurricane!!! eek!

more votes for Lark and Union....maybe Via Tribunali, on Capital Hill.

We love making pasta and are definately still practicing. Keller's gnocchi, Mario's pasta.....decisions, decisions!

good info you guys, I'm taking notes!

that is lovely, what is nopal cactus? Pallee, welcome!! what a nice first picture!

I think it sounds awesome chufi!! I wouldn't do another course. Will you serve wine with your courses?

I also am a big fan of Duke's chowder- I love the chowder tasting there. Dayne loves the Brooklyn too!

johnnyd your bio is fascinating, WOW, what an amazing amount of living you have done!!! I've been looking forward to you doing a blog since reading Scallop Divers!

Hi all, we are heading to Hurricane Ridge this weekend and are wondering if there is any place especially good to stop at on the way home sunday for lunch? We'll be taking the ferry over from Edmonds and heading through Port Angeles. Then next weekend we are staying at the Inn at Langley and before we head home wondered about good/interesting places to maybe check out on Whidbey. Thanks!

Your pictures brought back my memories of eating lunch at Lipp with my good friend who lives in Paris. We sat in the same area (back of the house right?) and I loved watching the waiters make tartare on that island station!! Thank you for posting!

LOVE nachos..... now I have a craving! Greek night tonight.... tzaziki with grilled pita; butterflied leg of lamb marinated in oregano, lemon & EVOO; lentils with red onion, feta, mint and garlic. All served family style. Merlot in the glass.

I just read that the Pike Place Market Creamery is selling raw Jersey and goat milk again.

no pictures.......you've seen it before.......brats done in beer and onions; mac and cheese; beers!

Picnic last Friday night. We brought melon cubes wrapped in proscuitto. Also Shrimp rolls. Think lobster rolls from Maine only with shrimp. toasted the hotdog buns earlier and let them cool. then brought the shrimp salad mixed and filled the rolls at the scene. Excellent. Others brought thai chicken skewers, fritata and little sandwiches. treats from a kick ass local bakery were served for dessert. YUM!

LOL!!! SCHOOLED!!!

pork loin marinated in orange and thyme and skewered served with penne with fresh chanterelles, leeks and cream sauce

I see basil, parsley and tarragon? Cute cat!!!

Brooks can you fill me in a bit on the entree prices at August? The menu looks awesome!

I'd love more info on the one in Paris..........

I make this at parties and people love it Black Bean & Mango salsa gougeres are also super easy, cheap and tasty! skewers of pork or chicken are good build your own taco bar- you grill fish and carnitas

Tamarind Tree is mentioned in this months Food&Wine

I've never been to the Georgian (for dinner, have been for lunch and tea) but I've been to Rovers and would go again in a heartbeat! I'm interested to hear from anyone about the Georgian

Wild Ginger stays open late as does May Thai in Wallingford, Le Pichet and I think Serafina too?
