Singles Dinner for Six - Ages W40-55/M45-60 July 3, 2009

Explore different restaurants each month while getting to know other singles in the age group of your choice . . . so even if there's no love connection you'll still have a wonderful time. You'll order off the menu and receive separate checks for your purchases. Our website allows you to view the profiles of those registered for each dinner, tracks who you've dined with so you meet new people every time, and then let's you send a private message to those you've dined with afterward.

For current space availability, to see who's going, and to register please visit our website at www.TastySeattle.com.

Please register early. Schedules are announced three to six weeks in advance, seats are filled on a first come first filled basis, and dinners close three to seven days in advance. Occasionally, space opens up last minute, but this cannot be relied upon, so register early for best results.

This week join us at Steelhead Diner:

"At this “edgy” Pike Place Market diner, chef-owner Kevin Davis (late of The Oceanaire) crafts “dynamic”, midpriced Pacific NW comfort food from fresh ingredients, many plucked “right from” the nearby “market stalls”; some suppers sip “exclusively Northwest” wines in the “laid-back” dining room with sightlines into the “open kitchen”, while others “sit at the bar” for its views of Elliott Bay." - Zagat.com

"Named for the Steelhead trout, an ocean migrating species of trout that's threatened in some West Coast habitats, this diner is nothing its name implies. In other words, it's no greasy spoon. It calls itself a "diner evolved" and its signature dish is not fish at all, but cheese. Flash fried Beecher's cheese curds to be exact. The gleaming chrome counter overlooking the open kitchen hints at diner-hood, but a sleek modern décor betrays the eatery's more upscale intentions. All that matters is that you know the food's going to be fresh and tasty since the menu relies on what's available at Pike Place Market. The chicken and Uli's andouille sausage gumbo is a fine first foray into a menu that meanders from field and stream to vegetables and legumes. The hearty Wagyu burger with melted onions, mushrooms, and Beecher's Flagship cheese, a cousin to tangy aged cheddar, satisfies lunch appetites. At dinner, the cider-glazed Kurobuta pork loin is nicely paired with green apple relish. Other standouts include self-shredding beef short ribs served with ground grits and crab cakes filled with nothing but briny sweet lump Dungeness. The satisfying dénouement? A Dilettante chocolate pecan pie overflowing with seductive sweetness." - Gayot.com
