Salmon-chanted Evening 5.31.14


We have Jed (who else!) to thank for the title of this blog post.  It was an enchanted evening indeed at the Swim's lovely new home.  Jordan outdid himself this time.  The star of the menu was salmon, and the dishes Jordan presented to us were imaginative and indescribably delicious.

The wines were also incredible.  The theme was Washington state syrah (100% or blended).  I think this opened many of our eyes to a new genre of wine.  Washington syrah was smooth and bold yet not over-powering.   The nuances of fruit and spice were varied, yet all so good.  We chose some amazing wines to share.

Instead of going on with words, I'll let the photos speak for the evening.  I took nearly 150 pictures!  From the moment we arrived at 7, until the clock was about to strike midnight, we enjoyed a terrific Saturday night.
