Decided we would use a ticket system for our dinners. So to make this experience more enjoyable, you could just pre-pay for your dinner. No need to tip or bring any money with you, just pay for your tickets online @ www.brownpapertickets.com It's just like going to a show. Less hassle for you and us, and no bill after dinner. You still need to make the reservation with us, then I will give you a password to purchase your ticket(s). I'm excited about this and think it will be a nice feature and convenience.

Found out I am going to New York. I won the regional competition for the Vitamix Challenge from www.starchefs.com and am going to compete against the 5 other us regions at the International Chefs Congress in October. Time to show what kind of food is coming out of the Inland Northwest. What other way is there to see New York besides when someone else is paying? AWESOME!

I got third place from the California Table Grape Commission. I know what your thinking, it's third place, in a national competition. But you didn't win, did you? Here's the link for my recipe. Three Grape Salad with Walnut Dressing Check it out!

Had a awesome dinner on top of the Saranac building downtown. What great company and fun food. Check out the menu and food picts on our past menu page!! click here You can also check out food pictures and all of our past menus for the past year. Kind of cool looking back and how we have changed and evolved over a short period.

Thanks to everyone for the continued support and for making this successful. We are having a great time doing this! We also have just been featured on Northwest Profiles on PBS. Check it out, here's a link!  http://video.ksps.org/video/1818798335

We are starting to get ready for our dinner this weekend and are really excited! Also a great article about our Inland Northwest food movement came out today. Here's a link. Click Here. So glad our community is accepting what we and the other chefs in this area are doing. Thanks everyone for the support. I'll post some new techniques from this upcoming dinner soon. Been working on some cool stuff.

Thanks Luke for the helping get this food culture ball going! Makes me excited for things to come in this area.
