Crawfish At Burgundian On June 15th - And 29th - UPDATED



One of Seattle's newest craft beer bars, Burgundian, has been consistently impressing me with their menu offerings.  Even though I do miss a few items their opening day menu offered, which they no longer have (things like Scotch Eggs or real Scrapple), they keep adding more items and specials that are truly gourmet. 

Here are just a few of the more delectable choices Burgundian has had on their menu over the past few weeks:

'Now For Something Completely Different' With Sean Paxton & Firestone Walker


At last year's Seattle Beer Week, I attended an amazing dinner at Brouwer's Cafe, featuring the Homebrew Chef, Sean Paxton, and beers from one of my favorite breweries, Firestone Walker.  (You can read all about that amazing 10-course, 12-beer dinner HERE.)

Chocolate & Beer? I'm In Love!


In just two days (This Sunday the 12th), Pike Brewing will be having their annual 'Chocofest'.  This is an evening to pair great drinks with great chocoate and other delicious goodies. 

(From Pike's Newsletter about the event)
"With over fifty-nine product representatives sampling beer, wine, spirits, mead, and cider, to pair with chocolatiers, restaurateurs, bakers, and cheese-makers, it is a sensual tasting experience."
I've attended this event once before a few years back.  My wife and I both had a great time and we decided it was time to experience this wonderful evening of gastronic delights again.  Rose & Charles Finkel know how to treat their guests right.  This year's event will benefit Farestart here in Seattle.  See Pike's full press release about the event HERE. 

Like the sign says: "Foreplay Before The Big Day"!  See you there, chocolate fans! Check back here the day after the event for reviews, photos, etc. 

Drink responsibly and stay safe out there.
