Seattle Times reviews Terra Plata
Read a really nice review of our pal Tamara's new space! She is described as sometimes acting "... as midwife in the earth-to-plate journey" - Many congratulations, Tamara!
Kissers,I hear they plan to open for brunch in the near future... UPDATE 2/12: William tells me that Terra Plata has been open for brunch for a while, and a reliable fancy-food-friend of mine gives it a big thumbs-up!

Seattle's teriyaki scene in the New York Times
Fascinating! Especially since I don't believe I've eaten teriyaki since we've lived in Seattle...They had me at "This isn't Dallas." Could it be time to expand my teriyaki-related horizons?
Article found here.
Great quotes from the piece:
“Seattle has a thousand teriyakis,” Mrs. Ko said one afternoon...This is Seattle food,” she said, extending her argument. “For Seattle people. This is what we eat here. Seattle people eat teriyaki. This isn’t Dallas.”
“Seattle likes to talk about local foods, about ridiculous things like fiddlehead coulis,” Mr. Berger said. “Seattle yuppies love the idea of going to some obscure Chinese place for dim sum but won’t dare tell you that they eat chicken teriyaki. Those places are so much a part of the streetscape that we can’t even see them.”
“The Washington State Restaurant Association has identified 83 Seattle restaurants with teriyaki in their name, including I Love Teriyaki and I Luv Teriyaki. (A concurrent search yielded about 40 restaurants named Burger King, McDonald’s or Wendy’s.)”
