Back at Mkt.

Once again the food was excellent! This is really one of my favorite restaurants in Seattle.
The place is small and cozy. Host, waiters, and manager are all friendly.
We had hamachi ceviche with citrus-cucumber ice, coriander and pickled red onions.
The roasted porcini-ricotta raviolis melted in the mouth.
Delicious pan seared cod with chanterelles and squash.
The Chocolate Terrine salted caramel with chocolate gelato was incredible.

I have a bias for French wines and we have always fund very good wines at Mkt.

Just writing this makes me hungry and I already want to go back.
We love this place!

Hommage opens

Update: Hommage has closed on 8/15/2015
Hommage is a new restaurant on north Queen Ann along the ship canal. It replaces the Book Bindery but the decor has not really changed. The modern greenhouse is also still there.
The restaurant opened last week with French Chef Nico Borzee, (previously at Artusi).
We had a “Tarte” with roasted seasonal veggie and green coriander, flavorful but not really a Tarte. Tasty cheeses with very good Chiroubles red wine (Fabien Collonges) and we shared a Tatin.

I was also happy to listen to Keren Ann singing “Jardin d’hiver”…
Hommage has potential. We will likely try again.
