Bonjour Mes Amis: 

 
The flowers are out and the Riesling grapes are budding on our property.  It is finally Spring and a wonderful time of the year to be in the Pacific Northwest.  There is so much to do and not enough time in the day to do it all.  Besides our garden growing like crazy we also have a lot happening in our French Country Inn cuisine this month of May.  We just finished our Italian Wine Tasting social and now we have three delicious  hands-on French Regional Cooking Classes coming up.  This month it's all about the sun drenched flavors of Provence and the Sea (fish)
 
This is also the start of our peak season where visiting guests come from other parts of the world...yes, we are busy, but give us a call anyway, as we might just have room for you!  Please don't forget to ask me about our "Gourmet Garden Tours", as May is the perfect garden season and the ideal time to take advantage of our tour program.  Even if you are a local and have not visited the gardens on our tour program take this opportunity to learn, explore and appreciate with one of our overly qualified personal tour guides.  Give me a call to check for openings at our Inn, our hands-on cooking classes and our gourmet tour programs (garden and wine ).

Chef Eddy Rico   

Chef EddygoodChef Eddy Rico hails from Provence.  Every summer he returns to Provence to spend time helping with the  family catering business in Nice.  These are the last two classes on our schedule before he disappears for the summer.  Don't wait...or you will miss out in enjoying these exceptional classes from Provence.  All of his recipes are unusual and authentic Provence  recipes.  He likes using recipes that have been handed down from Mother to Daughter...from generation to generation. 
 
PROVENCE  is blessed by the sun..sumptuous and delicious flavors await you from the south of France.  Provence is know for a terroir that produces aromatic and savory native products.  The combination of these flavors and the fresh local ingredients...are not only delicious but economical too.  Join him in "la cuisine" and with his guidance prepare a meal of delicious traditional regional dishes of Provence.

About Us

Close your eyes, imagine, and relax with all your senses as you take in and enjoy our French Country Inn...modeled after the Inns of the Loire Valley of France.  Your stay is more than a moment; it is feeling of being transported to a magical place.... We are a romantic Auberge Inn that is modeled after the French Country Inns that are known for being hidden away, where they offer total privacy and serenity in a luxury setting that is conducive to romance and developing whole body wellness. 

 

As in the quiet secluded private Auberge's of Europe, hidden away in a forest of evergreen, we are especially enticing for lovers who seek a romantic setting away from it all for the day, week or longer.  Well off the beaten path covering five acres, lovers can roam the grounds, sit on the veranda, and enjoy homemade tarts, cakes and other treats upon request. 

Our private suites and apartment are available at reasonable prices.  We are beautifully furnished and accessorized.  Just bring your suitcase: everything else is waiting for you, from fresh flowers in your room to extra pjs and night gowns in your drawers! 

 

L'Auberge Edge of  Seattle is in the Woodinville Wine Country, on the East Side of Seattle between Redmond and Woodinville.  From the main road look for our gravel drive way with a street sign called "REMY WAY".  You'll pass our lavender flower rock entrance, fruit trees, green house, raspberry plantings, vegetable garden, and a strawberry patch.   

 

Upon request we will serve a light supper on your arrival day.  We offer Thursday afternoon Tea Parties, French Regional Dinner Cooking Classes and a once a month wine tasting seminar, which are all available for your enjoyment
