Le Pichet to get heat and A/C

Posted on

If you have ever been to Le Pichet at 8am on a January morning, or on a sunny afternoon in August, you are aware that the restaurant has neither heat nor air conditioning.  It’s one of the challenges of being located in a vintage 1907 classic Seattle building.  The Livingston-Baker Building is a confusing maze

Pigeon des Landes roti en poele et sa salade verte

A quick supper dish that really was an inspiration du marché as the French say…an inspiration from a farm stand at the Sunday market at Amou, a short drive north of Orthez in the adjacent region of Les Landes  Pigeon breast, legs, gizzard and heart, marinated with a bit of port wine, thyme and garlic, then

Marché de Noël in Bordeaux

Posted on

I think that it is pretty well known among my friends that I am not a person that gets real fired up for Christmas.  I mean, I like to get together with family and friend and drink a glass to “Peace on Earth and Goodwill Toward Men” as much as the next guy.  But the

Foie gras terrine: why not keep one around the house?

Posted on

On the lookout for Foie Gras On a Tuesday in November, the display of foie gras at the market in Orthez is an impressive sight.  Not that the market at Orthez is uniquely gifted with foie gras; at this time of the year,  most of the markets in the region are similarly gifted.  The holiday

Rainy Saturday at the Farmers Market

Posted on

Saturday morning,  having coffee at a Greek restaurant up the street from the University District Farmers Market, reading Michael Lynch’s In Praise of Reason, thinking the reasonable course might be to stay here instead of going out into the rain to shop. Proof of what a strange transition from Summer to Fall we had this
