Dinner at Seatown Snackbar/by Shelley Lance, Blog Editor


Here’s what we ordered last night at Seatown Snackbar: the Seatown smoked seafood sampler- 6 different smoked fish and seafoods on buckwheat blini- each one bright and flavorful. The black cod with nectarine miso might be my favorite- no wait, maybe the Neah Bay Caviar with housemade cream cheese! The sampler was perfect for a warm summer evening with a glass of bubbly Rosé.  I enjoyed the bubbles while my husband, Frank, explored the beer list and ordered the “Bitburger in the can”- from Germany, which was mighty tasty.

A plateful of Jackie’s peak of summer Prosser tomatoes with avocado skordalia (Eric Tanaka’s invention) was another delight- beautifully seasoned, featuring the tomatoes but with the surprise of the skordalia.

We also enjoed the lavender duck leg with tamarind eggplant and coriander yogurt. The duck was moist and super tender and the eggplant-….meltingly soft and superbly spiced- I could eat a giant bowl of the eggplant alone.

We also had the porchetta sandwich- rich delicious pork, but not overwhelmingly so- which meant we still had room to share a piece of warm apple pie with Beecher’s cheese crust and vanilla ice cream.  We were very happy indeed!

The patio at Seatown Snackbar is open, the weather is perfect, and it’s almost cocktail time…..
