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 [...]

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

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, [...]

Sharing a Meal – The First Facebook

Gregor — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 20:09:44 +0000

What did we do before Twitter and Facebook? How in the world did we communicate how we were feeling, what we did, where we went? How? I’ll tell you how, we did it face to face, usually over food and/or drink, and it was lovely. Have any of you sat down at the end of [...]

Chicken Paprikash – Gregor’s Pub Style

Gregor — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 20:17:56 +0000

Chicken Paprikash has a lot of different variations, usually dependent upon the area. It can range from a creamy brown sauce to a deep red. Some variations don’t even have noodles or haluskis. Just a reminder for folks, we called our dumplings “Haluski”. I know there are dishes out there called Haluski, but what can [...]

Cornish Game Hens – Gregor’s Pub Style

Gregor — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 00:05:04 +0000

Today’s recipe is a simple one. Cornish game hens. Lovely little birds that kids just love. When my boys were little they would ask for the “personal sized chickens” they loved so much. This recipe is a direct rip off of drunken chicken by the way, just a slightly different preparation. Do it this way [...]

“Rue-Not” Reuben – Gregor’s Pub

Gregor — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 00:27:39 +0000

This is an offbeat take on the classic Rueben sandwich. It’s vegetarian and healthy, but don’t let that stop you. Those paying attention will see some similarities with an earlier sandwich. I keep telling you, experiment! Shopping List Dark or Marble Rye bread, thickly sliced 2 red peppers Roasted garlic Fresh basil Sauerkraut, drained Bean [...]

Cafe Flora – Seattle WA

Gregor — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 17:06:29 +0000

This past Saturday we descended on Cafe Flora in the Madison District for our friend Jo’s birthday celebration. Cafe Flora is a vegan friendly vegetarian place with something you just don’t find anymore in Seattle, a parking lot. An honest to gosh, full size parking lot. This party was getting off to a great start. [...]

Salmon “Stroganoff” – Gregor’s Pub

Gregor — Fri, 22 May 2009 23:50:37 +0000

Okay, I know. Salmon Stroganoff? Has Gregor lost his ever loving mind?? What manner of nonsense is this? Stay with me on this one, I promise you, you will love it. I came up with this one while trying to figure out some new way to prepare salmon. As I’ve said before, one of the [...]

Tulalip Resort Casino Trip

Gregor — Sat, 09 May 2009 22:18:20 +0000

We’ve been going to Tulalip almost from the moment we arrived in the area. It really has a “Vegas” feel about it, and makes a great getaway. Now, it’s even better with the addition of of the hotel next to the Casino that opened last summer. Highly recommend this place for locals as it’s a [...]

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. [...]

Halibut and Scallops with Ceviche – Gregor’s Pub

Gregor — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 01:11:56 +0000

Last Saturday was an “SiS.” Stay in Saturday. I like those kind of days because it means I get to cook and try new things. It’s been a while since we’ve had ceviche, so I headed to the market with the idea of getting “fixins” to make one, and see what else looked good for [...]
