Did you make it to “Q” ? They just opened again - and honestly I’m surprised. So many times I said after eating there “this is the best thing I’ve ever eaten”.
There’s one on the coast near Salishan - “Side Door” I think. Not Q level but ok.
“Q” as in Q Barbecue?
This was in 2010. I don’t remember Q. Our best one was Le Pigeon. Chef Gabriel Rucker. We had a connection there but that isn’t why I say it was the best. I went back to see the chef in 2016 but ate at the Heathman and it was great. I hope they didn’t ruin that 1927 wonder.
There was a place where you eat at a counter and order little plates like at a tapas bar, and there was a grocery store attached. There were two guys behind the counter and we had to sneak a look at the magazine to see which one was the chef. We discussed the food with him, and that was so nice. Superior. I think on one of the main streets, not sure.
Then on the last day when I had to leave, my daughter said leave your suitcase at the desk and we’re going to Tasty and Sons, which is now Tasty and Daughters. Lovely, and I was so glad she was into it up to the end.
