Mmm…makes me want to make plans for brunch there tomorrow. Enjoyed the write-up, and the photos, as always. Those small plates look great!

That looks wonderful. I wish I could have gone yesterday, but I was working. I’ll have to take my mom there when she’s here next month, as she loves Sitka & Spruce. It’s a bit of a haul down to Georgetown, but certainly not worse than heading out to Ballard.

my wife and i were there on sunday as well… we felt the exact same way when they stopped serving brunch at sitka+spruce, and we’re thrilled the same format for brunch has come to corson–esp. since corson is closer to us. wylie made a comment that they almost decided not to do brunch. the poached egg dish was delicious; the quail dish was also terrific, with unbelievably flavorful tomatoes (billy’s) for this time of year, served with aioli–a terrific combo. really loved the spot prawn salad and that crazy pate.

nice job with the photos.

Rebekah – Although there wasn’t outdoor seating yesterday, Matt said that they were planning on adding that very soon.

Janna – You are making me drool on my keyboard with that fried chicken description! We will definitely see you tonight.

Kari – I think you were in the second seating. As soon as we got home, we saw your tweet that you were leaving for brunch. I think we keep missing each other – Kisaku a couple weeks back, the U-District market on Saturday. Our lives are apparently about an hour or two ahead of yours.

I was there today too! How did I not know that you guys were there? We probably JUST missed each other! I will put a link to this review on my new blog because it is better than any other review out there:)

Stunning photograph of the brick, family-style platters, and wine beneath. Despite having never been to the Corson Building, it paints a beautiful picture of what I imagine it be: conducive to communal conversation and shared plates. We should corral the cats sometime for a Thursday dinner? Though I could always go for some Sitka, too!

Joseph (my partner) makes a delicious fried chicken dish with waffle bread crumbs, lavender honey mashed potatoes, meyer lemon preserve, and frisee.

See you both tomorrow night?

Oh, pâté with kumquats? Good lord, that sounds like a good time. I loved Corson Building for dinner; it will be so cool to try it for brunch!

We came so very close to trying out the brunch today! We wound up at Divine instead, because — same story — it wasn’t such a long haul to get there. I’m wishing now we’d driven the extra miles. Was it possible to eat outside? We had some visions of the kids frolicking amongst the pigeons while we ate all their macaroons.
