Ballard Pizza Company – Ballard, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 02 May 2012

This is my third post on pizza in three weeks! Ballard Pizza Company is the first of Ethan Stowell‘s Grubb Brothers ‘production’ of casual eateries. After cocktails (a refreshing Inverness mule of Scotch, ginger beer and fresh lime juice) and Mackie’s potato crisps at MacLeod’s Scottish Pub, we joined the Saturday night queue at Ballard [...]

Serious Pie pizza class – Downtown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Thursday 15 March 2012

I have two pizza classes scheduled within a month. I was at Serious Pie Downtown on a Wednesday morning for the first one. The pizza classes are held on weekdays and Saturdays before the restaurant opens. The city felt lethargic on a cloudy midweek day and it was a little odd walking into an empty [...]

Whole Foods Market Lynnwood tour

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 13 March 2012

Disclosure: I attended this event as a guest of Curator PR. This is not a sponsored post. I’m a slow grocery shopper. I browse the aisles for discounts, read the nutrition labels, convert measurements to metric, and compare brands. AmazonFresh delivers our non-perishable staples, and we’re lucky to live within walking distance to Melrose Market [...]

The Calf and Kid Cheese 101 – Capitol Hill, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 29 February 2012

We have been foiled in several attempts to dine at Sitka & Spruce in the past year. The first was a walk-in rejection with nearly an hour wait. The second was an abruptly terminated phone call when I requested a table for eight during the festive season. The third was a hasty retreat due to [...]

Momofuku Seiōbo – Sydney, Australia

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 17 January 2012

It’s been nearly two months since our meal at Momofuku Seiōbo. David Chang‘s first restaurant outside of New York City is located in The Star. The owners of the only casino in Sydney spent one billion dollars on the refurbishment over two years. Torrential rain and peak hour traffic had us worried we would be [...]

Bearfoot Bistro – Whistler, British Columbia

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Thursday 29 December 2011

It snowed in Whistler on Christmas Day and I loved it. Snowflakes zigzagged gently from the sky and dusted every surface. I was delighted with my first white Christmas. The powdered slopes were serene and the magic carpet was quiet. We skied in the morning and relaxed in the afternoon. Bearfoot Bistro was recommended by Naomi and was conveniently located [...]

106 Pine – Pike Place Market, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 07 December 2011

A group of friends gathered at 106 Pine for mid week wine and cheese. Next to Chocolate Box, both are boutiques specialising in Northwest goods. With adjacent entrances and a common wall with two gaps, the joie de vivre of chocolate, wine and cheese are intertwined. A wooden table in the bay window was laden with Christmas [...]

Tom Douglas Cookbook Social at Palace Ballroom – Downtown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Friday 02 December 2011

I attended the annual Tom Douglas Cookbook Social held at the Palace Ballroom yesterday. Christmas carols were playing and it was a convivial atmosphere. A food lover’s mistletoe, cookbooks tied with ribbon bows dangled from the ceiling. Authors were dispersed around the room, their stalls laden with cookbooks and samples. Cute CakeSpy illustrations greeted patrons. [...]

Café Sopra – Sydney, Australia

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Thursday 24 November 2011

In the heart of Sydney is the historical area of The Rocks. Narrow laneways and steep stairs wind around cobblestone footpaths, sandstone buildings and timber wharves, I have fond memories of the Walsh Bay precinct. Home of the Sydney Theatre Company, the waterfront has a spectacular view of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Luna Park. [...]

Eataly – Flatiron District, New York

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Friday 23 September 2011

‘Italy is Eataly.’ And Eataly is the size of all five David Jones Foodhalls in one location combined with the absurd Scandinavian navigation of IKEA. I was exploring the Flatiron District after lunch at Shake Shack and I found myself at the entrance of Eataly. I stood on the sidewalk for several minutes, observing the [...]
