Explore the Pacific Northwest as Moveable Feast with Fine Cooking travels to Seattle to get a taste of some of the freshest food on the West Coast. Host Curtis Stone travels by seaplane to Coupeville with chef Tom Douglas, winner of three James Beard Awards, and chef Renee Erickson, a driving force in the food boom of Seattle. First stop: a visit to Penn Cove to see where mussels grow in the best environment in the region. Next, he meets Georgie Smith of Willowood Farms, one of the most photographed, painted, and otherwise admired farmscapes in the Pacific Northwest. The chefs collaborate to create a true regional feast that includes steamed mussels and a spiced mussel and saffron soup followed by grilled whole salmon with Walla Walla onions and fava leaves, plus Washington state rhubarb cake.
