Voracious Tasting - Thank you!

A big THANK YOU to all of you that came out to Voracious Tasting! The night was full of delicious treats from over 40 restaurants, 10 mixologists, and 10 confectioners. It was packed, so while there are a ton of improvements for next year a sell-out made this event a huge inaugural success! Here are a few pictures that sum up the night....

For some of Seattle Weekly's employees, seeing our name on the marquee was surreal, it really set the mood for everyone to feel accomplished and excited - including those lifting, setting up, and schlepping.A big winner for the evening - Wild Ginger's Red Curry Salmon wrapped in leaves. Not one person said they didn't want to go back for seconds or thirds and my sister claims they make her want to eat at Wild Ginger every day! Something a restaurant always wants to hear!The winners of the Chef Showdown - Seth Caswell, owner and head chef at emmer&rye and advanced Art Institute student Josh Bristow. They were elated to have won....4 courses in 1 hour for 4 judges...the score sheet comments were hilarious. Also, a picture of Tom Douglas (our emcee) talking with Seth Caswell. Tom was truly my stress reliever. There is nothing like sharing a glass of Scotch backstage with a food icon in the community!

Such a fun evening - thank you all for your support!
