Siam Thai Restaurant – Bothell

Gregor — Tue, 14 Sep 2010 19:23:47 +0000

As you all know, I have a pretty strong love affair with good food and wine of all types. One of my lesser known food loves though is Thai food, so I was pretty excited when my buddy Kelly suggested we grab a bite at a place he and Lisa love, Siam Thai Restaurant. My [...]

Great Friends, Wine and Jazz

Gregor — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 18:48:00 +0000

This past Saturday at Pleasant Hill Wineries, we had a chance to experience a great trifecta of life: An afternoon with great friends (Kelly and Lisa and new friends Blaine and Carrie), tasting some phenomenal wine, and listening to some killer jazz. Oh, and some really good food as well. I guess that makes it [...]

Beer, Beer and Beer

Gregor — Fri, 28 May 2010 20:27:51 +0000

As you can tell, the topic for today is wine…no no no, it’s beer baby! Glorious beer. That refreshing combination of hops, barley and water. In addition to slaking the fiercest of thirsts, it can also form protective goggles should the need arise. Plain and simple, beer is good food. The oldest of recipes, beer [...]

Kafe’ Neo – Mill Creek, WA

Gregor — Wed, 12 May 2010 21:20:08 +0000

The Kafe’ Neo Greek and Mediterranean Restaurant sits along the main drag in the very popular Mill Creek Town Center. In addition to a fairly large dining area, there is a separate bar area as well as an outdoor patio. The interior is what one would expect of a Greek place: a lot of grape [...]

Plane Ol’ Wine Tasting

Gregor — Wed, 12 May 2010 20:29:58 +0000

Washington State wine tasting among historic airplanes. Two great tastes that go great together.

A short review of the Skookum Brewery and beer tasting barn in Arlington Washington.

Dinner at the McMurtrey’s

Gregor — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 18:25:22 +0000

Last night Beth and I had the pleasure of dining at the home of our friends, Kelly and Lisa. They have a lovely home not too far from where we live. Kelly took the original house down to it’s foundation and rebuilt it himself. He has landscaped the yard, complete with pond, into a showcase [...]

Pacific Cod with Grapefruit and Avocado – Gregor’s Pub Style

A recipe for Cod using Grapefruit and Avocado

Todamgol Korean Restaurant – Lynnwood, WA

Gregor — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 20:46:08 +0000

Annyong haseo! One of life’s true dining joys is to sit down to classic Korean meal. From the banchan, side dishes that accompany each meal, to the main course, Korean meals are a communal dining affair where the conversation is every bit as important as the food. Beth and I both love the cuisine and [...]

Cioppino – Gregor’s Pub Style

Gregor — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:42:06 +0000

One of my favorite dishes in the world is Cioppino, Italian style fish stew. As with most dishes, there are probably as many recipes for Cioppino as there are people who love it. Not wanting to be left out, I offer up my take on the classic dish. As always, look at this as a [...]

Grazie Ristorante – Canyon Park, WA

Gregor — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 20:27:41 +0000

Last Friday night, Beth and I went to dinner at the Grazie Ristorante in Canyon Park. We had been out with friends for a bit, and decided to stop and try it out based on their suggestion. We had no idea just how much of a treat we would be in for. Grazie sits off [...]

Emory’s on Silver Lake – Everett WA

Gregor — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 22:57:22 +0000

This past Thursday while I was out riding, I passed what I thought was a new restaurant, Emory’s. It sits right on Silver Lake, a small 20 acre or so lake just north of where we live. We’ve been looking for new places to try out, so plans were made to head there on Sat. [...]

Alaskan Cod/Halibut on Pineapple Planks – Gregor’s Pub Style

Gregor — Sat, 18 Jul 2009 22:45:00 +0000

We love fish, but after a while it all starts to taste the same. Smoked, grilled, grilled on cedar planks, steamed, it all gets boring after a while. Sure, you can make heavy sauces and such but that’s just masking the fish. I wanted something new that would allow me to have a new taste, [...]

Leavenworth WA – Day trip

Gregor — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 20:07:08 +0000

This past Saturday Beth and I headed up into the mountains for a day trip to Leavenworth. Leavenworth is like a lot of small mountain towns. Formed when the railroad came through, Leavenworth was a happening town in the late 1800′s and early 1900′s. Then around the 30′s or 40′s, things changed. The railroad changed [...]

Yakima Valley Wine Trip

Gregor — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 22:53:07 +0000

The past weekend Beth and I headed off to wine country on the first trip of the season. Passes were clear and the weather forecast was calling for 70’s and sun. That’s all we needed to hear. Car packed with a few goodies, we hit the road. Oh, one thing before we continue the trip. [...]
