Bremerton will be hopping on Friday night. Christmas trees will be lit downtown and in Manette and art walk will be in full swing, among other festivities. I’ll be showcasing a few in advance here at the blog, starting with a special visit by acclaimed chef and Seattle Restauranteur Renee Erickson.
Erickson, who’s started a number of Puget Sound area restaurants — The Whale Wins, Boat Street Cafe, The Walrus and the Carpenter and Barnacle — recently released a cookbook she’s promoting around the country. Her whistle stop here begins at The Weekender in Manette, from 6-8 p.m., followed by The Honor Bar near Evergreen-Rotary Park at 8 p.m.
She’s a huge star in the culinary world right now, with big write ups in Bon Appetit and the Seattle Times.
“We are incredibly excited and fortunate to have this event in our town,” said Alan Davis, co-owner of The Honor Bar.
