Seatown Lunch/ by Don Sefton, Catering Events Manager
I recently had lunch at Seatown, and the place never seems to fail my expectations! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the food is fresh and solid. First: Kelly makes a delicious margarita! I started off with half dozen Penn Cove Select oysters which were chilled, small, plump salty, and sweet. The mignonette was tangy with red wine vinegar and it had a nice amount of black pepper to round things out.
The Dungeness crab cocktail (photo, top) is the best in the city! Lots of local, chilled sweet crab tossed with slivers of celery to add crunch and the coffee-spiked cocktail sauce is out of this world!
I believe that the sticky ribs with a Chinese 12 Spice glaze drizzled on are some of the best in the city. The meat- yes! falls right off the bone. Such a great profusion of different spices and sweetness. The Chinese ramen noodles that accompany the ribs are tossed with a bit of Chinese mustard for a little kick. How does lunch get any better? (answer: sit outside on the patio!)

I think the sticky ribs at Seatown are one of the best dishes in the whole company. They are difficult for me to resist whenever I eat there, unless it’s breakfast. I hear that at breakfast, the dish to order is Chef Adrienne’s congee!
