seattle jeebus on 7/21?

[Jay Miller]

I'll be available in Seattle on 7/21 if anyone is around and interested in jeebing. Jeff might be around too?

 

[Matt Latuchie]

hey jay -

was there a couple weeks ago and had some 2003 Truchot at Purple Cafe in downtown Seattle if you're interested.

cheers,
matt

 

[Jay Miller]

worth noting, thanks!

 

[Brian C]

I might be able to make it down if something was coming together.

 

[Jay Miller]

well, at the moment you're the only one. do you know of any locals who might be interested?

 

[Brian C]

I'll see if we can rally the troops.

 

[Marc D]

7/21 should work for me.
I wonder if Lee and BJ are around.
Jay, any interest in visiting Bellingham?

Lee wrote me today 95% affirmative.

 

[Jim Diven]

I'm interested, though Bellingham would let me out on a week night i'm afraid.

 

[Jay Miller]

Bellingham is a bit out of the way given that I only have the one evening. Is there good public transport to get up there?

Not unless you count BJ or Lee as "public"

That could work. in that case I'm fine either way.

It is ~80 miles, takes 2 hours or so depending on traffic.
Maybe it would be better to plan for something in Seattle.

 

[Lee Short]

Melissa and I are definitely in. Thoughts on venue?

 

[Jay Miller]

Jeff is still uncertain but Bruce S. (friend of Lee from Minneapolis) will be joining us.

Sweet!

It would be good to see Jeff as well.

 

[BJ]

Mme L and BJ will attend. We can get there a little after 7. We will go w the flow locale wise.

As I said, i'm in 100% as long as it is not 90 miles distant. I'm the Noob here, so ignore me as required, but I suggest we get a count of how many folks are committed.

I have concerns over some of the Seattle Jeeb places i've heard mentioned in the past - don't think chinese bbq pork and duck is necessarily the best foil regardless of how much riesling and vouvray I might have.

I work downtown and am willing to go anywhere no matter how high end. in a pinch I could probably host up here in Ballard if folks are willing to make the (small) journey.

 

[Marc D]

I'm in, possibly MJ as well.
I would love to try Spinasse but have no idea about the corkage policy there.

Ah, a local bakery of yours earned a mention in the latest Art of Eating! I intend to try and snag one of the Honore Artisan Bakery's cannele while I'm out there. I haven't had one since Bouley Bakery closed.
