8 Ways to Celebrate Tom Douglas Day

8 Ways to Celebrate Tom Douglas Day

Cuoco

Cuoco

People-pleasing Italian food with an artisanal touch: pastas made with a delicate hand and vegetable

It’s the crown jewel of Tom Douglas’ trio of restaurants in his refurbished South Lake Union brick warehouse tucked beneath the shiny new Amazon buildings (it’s also home to Brave Horse Tavern’s tasty pub food and Ting Momo’s hit-or-miss Tibetan dumplings). Sturdy reclaimed wood and walls of exposed brick create a masculine backdrop for pasta…

Tom Douglas’ Cuoco Brings People-Pleasing Pasta to South Lake Union

Hand-crafted pastas, serious steaks and a welcoming atmosphere make this new restaurant a standout.

Five Food Events You Don’t Want to Miss

Let Colin McCrate of Urban Farm Company be your rooftop garden guide.

I’m not calling these “foodie” events because I don’t think you need to know the difference between celery and celeriac to enjoy most of them: just an enthusiasm for great cooking and eating, and in a couple of cases, helping out the local community. There is so much gastronomic action on the horizon, just thinking…

Wild Salmon at Etta's

Wild Salmon at Etta’s

Allison Scheff devours Etta’s early season salmon.

In June, the Pike Place Market comes fully alive: Vendors’ tables are crowded with grassy snap peas, ruby red and golden beets, and bundles of fragrant sweet pea flowers (just $5). And, of course, there’s that one item you’ve been waiting for all year: chubby early-season wild salmon, glistening on ice at every one of…
