We’ll be sampling the following:

Wines:

• Oberon Sauvignon Blanc (2007) – from the Napa Valley
• Eyrie Vineyards Pinot Gris (2009) – from the Willamette Valley

Cheeses:

• Abondance – Complex alpine cheese similar to a French Gruyere (cow’s milk)
• Brebirousse – Ewe’s milk cheese from the Lyon region of Franche … lovely, creamy, delicate
• Garroxta – Semi soft Spanish goat … hint of nuttiness with a clean finish
• 12 Month Manchengo – Spanish sheep aged for 12 months … sharp, hearty character with a lingering buttery finish.
• Pecorino di Tartufo – Black truffles with a well aged Italian Pecorino … decadent

Foods (from our fresh take & bake selections):

• Baked Shrimp – Tender shrimp baked in our spicy harissa butter with notes of citrus and fresh herbs.
• Traditional Baked Escargot – Imported escargot are baked in our white wine and fresh herb butter.
• Pate de Fois Gras en Croute – Smooth fois gras pate with sauternes and house fig compote encased in buttery puff pastry.

Make sure to bring your appetite (all selections will also be available for purchase in the shop). See you there!

One of the great advantages of our new Madison Park location is that our longer hours have allowed us to expand our menu to include dinner. That’s right, Belle Epicurean’s not just for breakfast (and lunch) anymore! Now we have small plate /evening menu as well!

In addition to our salads — roasted beet salad, tarragon shrimp salad, etc. — and our hearty sandwiches — croque monsieur, croque madame, et plus — we also have a wonderful selection of entrees perfect for your evening meal. From baked Brie en Croute or Escargot to a delightful Roulade d’ Aubergine (eggplant with herbed chevre and Gason peppers), if you’re in the mood for great food, we’ve something to satisfy your palate.

Oh, and if that wasn’t enough — we also have some hot, made to order desserts that are simply to die for. (We are Belle Epicurean after all.)

Seattle’s Best Stocked Pantry

If you’ve been to our Belle Epicurean location in Madison Park, you’ve probably noticed that we’ve been working on a new shop right next door. Well, we’re pleased to announce that Provisions is now officially open!

From the beginning our concept for Provisions has been simple: a shop with the things every foodie loves in a well-stocked pantry. So in Provisions you’ll find the high quality food stuffs we use in our cafes — doughs, condiments, etc. — ingredients we use in our products and whole-heartedly endorse (Michel Cluizel chocolate is amazing…), hand-selected wines, artisan cheeses, books on french foods and wine… oh, and an eclectic assortment of other wonderful goods too.

What’s in the shop is entirely up to our whims, so you’ll find fresh items whenever you drop by for a visit (which we encourage you to often). If you’re as big a foodie as we are, there’s no doubt you’ll be delighted every time you stop in!

You’ll find more information on our products, store location, hours, etc. on our website here: Visit Provisions.
