Continuation of Seattle food review.... My 2nd night in Seattle I went to the much revered Matt's in the Market. Holy tamale, batman.
Here's a review of it that has a picture of the cramped space - describing it wouldn't do justice.
When I was there it was 3 women: 1 waiter, 1 gofer/cook/cashier, and 1 cook. The "kitchen" is a bar. You know how a bar looks - well, that was it. 2 industrial ovens, 1 sani-clean dishwasher, 2 portable gas burners, and there ya have it. Tons of all-clad (as usual) and prepped items in squeeze bottles, ziploc bags, and plastic tubs. The space was about 3 feet wide and 10 feet long to do the actual cooking activities.
Yet the food was phenomenal - why? Because everything on the menu changes daily, based on what they happen to buy downstairs (Pike Place Market). So everything is still-kicking-fresh, and the cooks really know what they are doing.
What did I have? Who knows by this point, but I dropped nearly $50 on three courses plus wine, and it was worth even more.
