Sunset Magazine Showcases Brunch at The Coterie Room in the June Issue

Chefs McCracken and Tough's gorgeous restaurant The Coterie Room has been singled-out as one of the best spots in town for a glorious brunch.  Tourists and locals, take note.

Sophie Egan wrote about five Wild Bites you shouldn't miss in Seattle come brunch time and swooned over the Chefs' Smoked King Crab, Cracklins dipped in a "creamy, earthy" Truffle Fondue, and the glamorous chandelier lit room with its lush living wall of greenery we were thrilled to just have gotten showcased on HGTV.com.

Thank you Sunset for recognizing The Coterie Room.

Hanna Raskin of the Seattle Weekly Creates Her List of Ten Best Drink Menus in Seattle. Tavern Law Included.

The menu is "encyclopedic" as Providence Cicero once wrote.  And the bartenders are "bookish" about their work.  End result?  One of the very best drink menus in the country and the world according to many. 

And now Tavern Law has made it onto the Seattle Weekly's Top Ten in the city list: "Tavern Law makes a point of searching out old, dead, lost, and forgotten mixed drinks and bringing them back to life in as close to their original incarnations as possible, sourcing all manner of super-artisan or ridiculously small-batch liquors and mixers and making everything else from scratch. The resulting drinks are not only some of the best you've ever tasted, but inarguable proof that dedicated, bookish bartenders can be just as creative and artistic as the greatest chefs out there. And also that your great-grandma really knew how to party."

With the sidewalk patio now open, it's an excellent time to go try a new drink on Seattle's Capitol Hill.  Congrats to the team at Tavern Law.  And thank you Ms. Raskin.
