Mount Baker Winemaker’s Dinner on Feb. 03

We are very excited about the seven-course Winemaker’s dinner on Friday, February 3rd, which will feature wines from Mount Baker Winery, paired skillfully with Chef Sebastian’s lovely Northwest cuisine. Winemaker Randy Finley is an amazing and exciting vintner. He will discuss each of the seven wines as they are presented. The wines represent an unusual array of varietals that are both uncommon in the Pacific Northwest, and delicious because of Randy’s comprehensive wine-making skills.   

The event starts with chardonnay and a Washington artisan cheese reception at 6pm, and progresses into a full evening, six courses of unusual wines and superb food, from the master of sustainability and slow foods. Sebastian’s skills are breathtaking.  

Along with this special dining event, the Shelburne Inn is providing a 20% discount to all winemaker’s dinner attendees.  Mention this discount when making dinner and overnight reservations via telephone, as this discount is not available through our online reservation system.

The complete menu can be downloaded and viewed HERE (PDF format, Adobe Reader required). The price for the event is $85 plus tax and gratuity. As seating is limited for this event, give us a call now at (360) 642-4150.

Mid-Week Happenings in Seaview

Ours is a quiet, little town and especially so in Winter. So, the Shelburne Restaurant & Pub is doing its part to liven things up. We have three regularly scheduled events on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights.

On Tuesday nights in the Pub you’ll find crooner, Brian O’Connor singing and playing guitar. Brian’s mellow, soothing voice and nimble fingers create a fun and relaxing atmosphere. His musical selections can be nostalgic, as he covers many of his favorites from the ’60′s. His interpretations of the songs from prior generations breathe new life into them. You just might want to get up and dance. Continue reading

All in the Spirit with Krupnikas

While researching recipes for our Eastern European tea recently, I came across one for a spicy Lithuanian spirit, Krupnikas. Not being a round-the-clock tea-totaller, the recipe intrigued me because of its use of all of the spices we associate with the smells and tastes of the holiday season. I opted to use Vodka instead of 190-proof grain alcohol in the batch I made. I like to photograph my cooking and baking endeavors and as it happened, while I was setting up the photograph below, our local listener supported radio station, KCPB was airing a classical concert program hosted by Alec Baldwin. He happened to be playing the music of eastern European composers as I staged my photo. A little shot of Krupnikas, and all I could hear was the passion of Shostakovich, Tchaikovsky, Rimsky-Korsakov and Rachmaninoff. Krupnikas is often served slightly heated. Here’s the recipe:
