Food News: Spinasse and a Corson Building review

Just in: Justin Neidermeyer's new joint will NOT be called Pancia Piena, but will be called Spinasse. He's still doing pasta, tho, and he's just about to open the place.
Read more about it on the Seattle Mag blog.

Also! Our new Web Editor over at the magazine, Karen Johnson, got an early resy at The Corson Building last weekend and she wrote all about it on the blog. It's the first in-depth report I've seen and it's also a pretty surprising review...take a look.

Bourdain, and the Corson Building's maiden dinner

I've been curious for months to know what Matt Dillon (Sitka & Spruce) and Wylie Bush (Joe Bar) would do with one of the most interesting buildings in industrial south Seattle, the Corson Building. So when I heard that the Corson's first "official" dinner would be a pre-show feast with guest-of-honor Tony Bourdain, I knew--though I'm not a big enough fan to dole out hundreds of bucks to join in--I knew I'd want to hear about it on the flip-side.

Did a quick search and found this short recap of dinner with Bourdain on a guy named Larry Jordan's livespace blog. The pictures he includes at the bottom of the page are definitely worth a look--check out that hot red meat slicer!

Did any of you go? I'd love to hear more about that dinner.

In the meantime, I just noticed that there's now an email address to reserve space for Corson Building's Sunday suppers on the Sitka & Spruce website. Game on!
