Marmite
The latest offering from Bruce Naftaly of Le Gourmand fame, Marmite joins and collaborates with Amandine Bakeshop, his wife Sara’s side of the mini Chophouse Row empire-to-be. Currently, Naftaly serves up various soups and “restorative” entrées for lunch and brunch, with plans to add dinner soon. Naftaly is a pioneer of the farm-to-table movement, and it’s safe to assume he’ll continue the level of Le Gourmand quality at this Capitol Hill site. If you’re reading this during Seattle’s miserable, rainy months, I highly recommend seeking out their bone broth immediately. Naftaly knows what he’s doing. TOBIAS COUGHLIN-BOGUE
