Wine, Beer & Wine Talk by Art of the Table
June 23, 2011

We're giving you a combined effort of Wine, Beer & Table Talk this week again because, well, there isn't enough time in this week!

 

Last week I noted we were in Vancouver.  After that we went on to Bellingham, Washington for a great conference on local, sustainable efforts that we will continue to work on practicing!

 

We also were given the opportunity to dine at our namesake restaurant in Seattle!  Yes, the restaurant really is called Art of the Table (only theirs is www.artofthetable.net - check it out!)

We had a 5 course artful meal complete with wine pairings and I'll never forget it, Chef Dustin, who is also the owner, wow-ed 24 of us with a stunning dinner - if you would like a glimpse of how lovely it was, I'll have it up on the blog soon! And if you're ever in Seattle, book your reservation early to dine! 

 

Anyway, to round out this week we've got

more tasting opportunities!  Leave the rain outside and come in to try.... 

 

 

tastings this week   


This weekend we have two food focuses, a wine & a beer tasting!

1.  Food: simple desserts!

That wonderful Chef Kate has once again put together quite the weekend of food desire with sweets this time!  Enjoy our easy options for your next surprise guests or for taking to your next Meijer Gardens concert!

2.   Food: SALE foods 

Once in a while there are just a few things that need to go sooner than later for freshness dates - they're still yummy now and for a month or so, and some are just the last stragglers so your reward is to buy (cheap) and eat!  So we'll be sampling some things on the kitchen counter and they're marked 30-70% off!
