Ever pass by a restaurant and wonder about the story behind the cuisine? Well, now you can have a guided tour! Come enjoy the art of eating and cooking in community with NuCulinary. Our unique Dine, Learn and Cook Restaurant Series is a two-class series. For the first experience, we eat together at one of Naomi?s favorite Asian restaurants and thenwe meet at NuCulinary?s new Seattle kitchen location to learn from the chef how to prepare the delicious dishes from the week before.
Join Naomi at Julia?s Indonesian Kitchen in the Green Lake neighborhood. One of just two restaurants in the area serving authentic Indonesian cuisine, an amalgamation of influences from the Dutch settlers, Arab traders, local Malay communities, and Chinese immigrants. Our dinner together features an adaptation of a very traditional and sumptuous feast, Rijstafel, which began as part of the affluent Dutch supper offerings during colonial times. It features a generous portion of fluffy steamed jasmine rice surrounded by numerous dishes, up to 40 at some banquets! At Julia?s, you?ll savor six dishes, two meat, two vegetable, a soup and an egg dish. We will create this unique experience at Julia?s Indonesian Kitchen, plus taste several of Julia?s other specialties. I promise, you will enjoy each bite!
The following week, Chef/Owners Julia Suparman and Yusi Sasmitra will join us in our Seattle kitchen to demonstrate their special cooking techniques and show you how to make these dishes in your own kitchen.

Ever pass by a restaurant and wonder about the story behind the cuisine? Well, now you can have a guided tour! Come enjoy the art of eating and cooking in community with NuCulinary. Our unique Dine, Learn and Cook Restaurant Series is a two-class series. For the first experience, we eat together at one of Naomi?s favorite Asian restaurants and thenwe meet at NuCulinary?s new Seattle kitchen location to learn from the chef how to prepare the delicious dishes from the week before.
Join Naomi at Julia?s Indonesian Kitchen in the Green Lake neighborhood. One of just two restaurants in the area serving authentic Indonesian cuisine, an amalgamation of influences from the Dutch settlers, Arab traders, local Malay communities, and Chinese immigrants. Our dinner together features an adaptation of a very traditional and sumptuous feast, Rijstafel, which began as part of the affluent Dutch supper offerings during colonial times. It features a generous portion of fluffy steamed jasmine rice surrounded by numerous dishes, up to 40 at some banquets! At Julia?s, you?ll savor six dishes, two meat, two vegetable, a soup and an egg dish. We will create this unique experience at Julia?s Indonesian Kitchen, plus taste several of Julia?s other specialties. I promise, you will enjoy each bite!
The following week, Chef/Owners Julia Suparman and Yusi Sasmitra will join us in our Seattle kitchen to demonstrate their special cooking techniques and show you how to make these dishes in your own kitchen. You will be tasting this beautiful and delicious cuisine, not once but twice in one week! http://juliasindokitchen.com

Saturday, October 10 at 4:30 p.m.
nAnn Streissguth and Daniel Streissguth are most known as two esteemed University of Washington faculty emeritae. Ann Streissguth taught at the UW School of Medicine and was a national pioneer in research on fetal alcohol issues, and Daniel Streissguth was a professor at the UW College of Architecture and Urban Planning. At their Capitol Hill home, they took on the decades-long work of making a beautiful garden out of land that was mostly given over to Himalayan blackberries, horsetails, and morning glories. In their lovely book, In Love with a Hillside Garden (University of Washington), co-authored with their landscape architect son Benjamin Streissguth, they show and tell a particular story of one garden made, and also illustratethe potential for other such efforts to bear fruit elsewhere. Now a part of the Seattle park system?as a result of a 1996 gift to the City?this public garden is a pleasure to behold in book form?and in the real experience ofvisiting it.

Explore something new or get all your questions answered on canning and preserving.
Have you ever wanted to "put up" your harvest of tomatoes or make pickles? Or perhaps you already do but have questions on pressure canning, waterbath canning or just freezing and refrigerator preservation. Perhaps you are a canning virgin and want to learn more.
This Community Canning Kitchen Workshop is for you. Depending upon whether you bring your own canning supplies and produce, the price will vary
Naomi Kakiuchi welcomes Master Canner Shannonand partner Jason Mullett-Browlsby to guide you in the art of canning. These fun and serious food preservers " The Lazy Locavores" will provide hands-on instruction, tips and how-to for all preservation methods. You will walk out with your own canned items and a new group of friends.
Here is how it works--
1. You can come with your produce and jars and can-your-own with the benefit of supervision and advice. It will just cost you the price of the workshop of $20
2. You can come and use our produce and jars.Please register as a participant and then plan to pay a materials fee at the workshop. It shouldn't be more than $15. Please pay cash or check at theworkshop.
3. You can come and not can a thing but be a part of this learning community that will share their own expertise and wisdom in putting up the harvest. You will need to register as a participant.
We do require registration in advance--as we will be procuring your produce and canningsupplies. Please register as soon as possible so we can plan. When you register, in the CHECKOUT window, there is 'comments' section where you can indicate if you are bringing your own produce and jars and what it is or ifyou need produce and Jars.
Depending on the weather, we will probably have tomatoes, cucumbers, perhaps some fruit for jam or chutneys...

This fund helps farmers in times of bad weather when they have damage to their farms such as winter flooding etc. For more info you can go to www.seattlefarmersmarkets.org

Every Thursday night, a different Guest Chef works with the students to prepare a three-course meal for over 200 guests served at the FareStart Restaurant. Guest Chef Night has been called 'Seattle's best food lover?s event' andfor just $24.95 it's one of the city?s best values as well. Hard-working community volunteers serve the guests who enjoy great food in support of FareStart and our students - 100% of the proceeds and gratuities from Guest Chef Night go back into the program and fund student services and training.

Event Description:
With Evan Sugden,PhD and lecturer at the University of Washington will be joining us to answer questions and he?ll be bringing honey from his hives for a honey tasting!
Bees are vanishing. Examining the enormity of this loss, Jeremy Simmons' documentary The Last Beekeeper follows the lives of three commercial beekeepers (from South Carolina, Montana, and Washington) over the course of a year as they struggle with Colony Collapse Disorder. When they take their bees to California's enormous annual almond pollination (an event so large it requires nearly all the bees in the US), it becomes painfully and poignantly clear the bind they are in. "If all the bees die, what do you have to live for?" asks one of the beekeepers. It's a question for all of us.

Ten years ago, Marina Marchese fell in love with bees during a tour of a neighbor's hives. Surprised to find that allowing docile honeybees to crawl across her hands instilled a serene tranquility and comfort, Marina quit herjob, acquired her own bees, built her own hives, harvested honey, earned a certificate in apitherapy (the use of honeybee products in medicinal healing) and eventually opened her own business. Today, Red Bee Honey sells artisanal honey and honey-related products to shops and restaurants all over the country. This is one woman's story, but it is also bursting with fascinating and practical information about all aspects of bees, beekeeping and honey, including: building a beehive; pollination and its importance in sustaining life; harvesting honey; healing with honey and apitherapy
; and much more. Recipes for food, drink and personal care products madeof honey are included throughout--and Marchese will lead us in an artisanal honey tasting at the conclusion of her interview that evening.
With the challenge of colony collapse disorder threatening the future of honeybeestoday, spend an evening learning about these amazing creatures and how much they contribute to our lives.

The Good Life has been created by Kim Ricketts Book Events and The Warren Report, and is supported by sponsorships from Childrens Trust Foundation, Bastyr University, Tom Douglas Restaurants, Theo Chocolate, and Lush Life Floral.

Come join us for an "El Dia De Los Muertos" party at The Old Firehouse.
The ritual known today as D¡a de los Muertos, or Day ofthe Dead is celebrated in Mexico and certain parts of the United States, including the Valley. Celebrations are held each throughout the country andit still maintains the basic principles of the Aztec ritual, such as the use of skulls. Today, people don wooden skull masks called calacas and dance in honor of their deceased relatives. The wooden skulls are also placed on altars that are dedicated to the dead. Sugar skulls, made with the names of the dead person on the forehead, are eaten by a relative or friend, according to Mary J. Adrade, who has written three books on the ritual.
nWe will be making sugar skulls, altars and and eating traditional foods and treats of this 3000 year old celebration
