| Our adventure begins in Portland, Oregon and we close our trip in Seattle Washington. Our 8 night 9 day journey is planned out so that you get a great experience of the Pacific Northwest Cuisine Scene. We are very excited that the superior Chefs of this region are willing to spend time with us and explain their techniques and the passion they put into each dish. Presentations are each a work of art and not only pleasing visually, they are satisfying in tastes and expectations. Standards are high, and the Chefs we have chosen to demonstrate their talents are in our opinion the best of the best. Some are new, some not, some are artists, some are architects, so let us enjoy! |
