The National Dining Rooms – Trafalgar Square, London

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 09 May 2012

We had intended on going to Oxford on our first day in London. But alas, the weather conspired to confine us to indoor activities. Our umbrella gallantly shielded us from rain and wind as we waited for The Wolseley to open for breakfast. Thanks to Paola for the recommendation, the eggs Benedict, croissant and classic English (eggs, bacon, sausage, baked [...]

Teppan Village – Whistler, British Columbia

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Thursday 12 April 2012

I had neglected the final post from our Christmas trip to Whistler. Teppan Village had been floundering at the bottom of my draft folder until I noticed it this week. I clicked on it with a wry smile, the lapse in time a contrast to the speed of the meal. Our teppanyaki (鉄板焼き) was cooked [...]

Sozo winemaker dinner at Fonté Café – Downtown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 28 February 2012

Disclosure: I attended this event as a guest of Allan Aquila. This is not a sponsored post. After a brisk walk into Downtown and a quick browse in the SAM Shop I crossed the street to Fonté Café for the Sozo winemaker dinner. sozo (so·zo) – noun To save, keep safe and sound, to rescue [...]

Foodportunity at Palace Ballroom – Downtown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 07 February 2012

I attended my first Foodportunity yesterday evening at the Palace Ballroom, a networking event founded by the inimitable Keren Brown. A screen projected the live Foodportunity Twitter feed. The lovely Keren spoke briefly to thank Foodportunity’s sponsors and supporters, and drew the winners of the business card raffle. My first taste was at Metropolitan Market, the main sponsor of [...]

Spur Gastropub – Belltown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 06 February 2012

We celebrated our first anniversary in Seattle with dinner at Spur. We had a cosy evening at the gastropub during the miserable spring of last year and loved the experience. Located next to The Coterie Room, Spur is the original restaurant by Chefs McCracken and Tough. The ambience was warm and bistro like. A narrow room is [...]

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 [...]

Nijo – Downtown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 26 December 2011

A mixed group of Americans and Australians met for happy hour at Nijo last week. Located a couple of blocks south of the Seattle Art Museum, the restaurant is on the Puget Sound end of Spring Street. A courtyard is fenced by bamboo and would be popular for al fresco dining during summer. Festive baubles dangled from ceiling lights. [...]

SousVide Supreme Demi – salmon with lemon and dill

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 08 November 2011

Disclosure: I received a demo product from Duo PR. This is not a sponsored post. Our kitchen is notoriously gadget free. No blender, no food processor, no stand mixer, no sandwich press, no coffee maker. And for many years, no kettle. A toaster is the only gadget on our counter. I attended the Sharone Hakman [...]

Wines from Spain Great Match 2011 – Spain’s Vivacious Varietals

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Friday 14 October 2011

Disclosure: I attended this event as a guest of Lane PR. This is not a sponsored post. I like wine. A simple statement, yet meaningful. Moments in life are celebrated or commiserated with wine. Champagne flutes at weddings, a bottle of red to listen to a friend, decanters at dinner parties or a glass while [...]

Summer parties cooking class at Flying Fish – South Lake Union, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 25 July 2011

On a cool and drizzling Saturday morning, we were indoors at On the Fly for a cooking class with Chef Christine Keff. We laughed at the irony of recipes for summer parties in this flippant Seattle weather. Christine relocated Flying Fish from Belltown, where Local 360 is, to South Lake Union about a year ago. Next door [...]
