POSTPONED– One Night with Brendan McGill + Waters Winery + Deborah Page Projects
We regret that we are having to cancel our upcoming dinner this Saturday. Chef Brendan McGill is under the weather with a terrible ear infection. For everyone who purchased tickets, please contact Brown Paper Ticket’s 24/7 number at 1-800-838-3008 x1 for a full refund. If you would like to contact us with questions, you can email us at info@onoproject.com. Again, sincere apologies for all of you who had made arrangements to come to this dinner. Our next dinner will be May 18th. Look for details here and on our Facebook page soon to come.
Hot off the heels of his Food & Wine People’s Best New Chef win, Brendan McGill, chef/owner of Hitchcock on Bainbridge Island, will be partnering with Waters Winery for a multi-course wine-paired dinner at a beautiful private home in the old West Queen Anne School owned by Art Consultant Deborah Page and designed by Architect Eric Cobb.
McGill will be creating a menu of what he refers to as ‘New Nordic’ cuisine using some of last year’s harvest to showcase how preservation drives seasonal cooking.
In addition to Deborah’s extensive art collection, images by the artist Don Saxon will also be on display.
We look forward to seeing you at the dinner table!

One Night Only with Robin Leventhal + Café Fonté
Chef Robin Leventhal will be resurrecting her beloved restaurant Crave for one night only, Saturday, February 23, at Café Fonté in downtown Seattle. She’ll be creating a menu that includes many of her famous dishes like duck confit with drunken fig compote and a green chili savory bread pudding; pan-seared goat cheese gnocchi with prosciutto and pine nuts topped with a mound of garlic sautéed pea vines; and bacon-bruleed Brussels.

À la française!
Seattle’s big-shot chef certainly knows his way around Italian cuisine, but for One Night Only, Ethan Stowell will be creating course after course of casual French bistro fare. We’re talking foie gras terrine, roasted foie gras, salad Lyonnaise, watercress soup, steak frites and pot de creme.
Each course will be paired with a wine from Guardian Cellars, a boutique winery in Woodinville run by husband and wife Jerry Riener and Jennifer Sullivan.
The entire dinner will take place at a private home on Mercer Island, perched right on Lake Washington.
We look forward to seeing you at the table!
Bon appétit!

Join Us for One Night with Chef Mike Easton of Il Corvo + Proletariat Wines
SATURDAY December 15th 6:30pm
Come to our next One Night Only dinner where Easton will be cooking a multi-course holiday feast in the loft space of Chris Pardo Designs on Capitol Hill. The intimate evening (we’re capping the dinner at 30 guests) begins with a bubbly reception that includes passed h’orderves followed by dinner. Easton is aiming for at least 5 courses, so bring your appetite and communal spirit. Menu creation in progress.
We’ll also have a photographer and a DJ spinning some holiday favorites–and, of course, lots and lots of cheer (and not just the alcoholic type, although there will be plenty of that)! As usual, the dress code is casual, but we certainly won’t turn down a Santa hat or holiday stockings.
