Homer
Day 1: 5-Course Inventive Mediterranean Tasting Series
Opened in Beacon Hill in 2018, this inventive eatery is the creation of chef-owner Logan Cox, formerly of Sitka and Spruce, and his wife Sarah Knowles, who designed the charmingly wainscoted and whimsically wallpapered space. Named for their dog, Homer serves Mediterranean and Middle Eastern-inspired cuisine that relies heavily on the freshness of its Pacific Northwest ingredients. All dishes are prepared over a wood fire, and the menu features such highlights as stewed local mushrooms, smoked mussels with potatoes, charred shishitos, and pickled garlic, and house meatballs with yogurt and tomatillos. Homer has made quite a name for itself, with Chef Cox nominated for a James Beard Award for "Best Chef: NW" in 2019 and 2020, as well as coveted spots on Eater's "38 Essential SEA Restaurants" List ('24), SeattleMet's "50 Best Restaurants" List ('24), and Infatuation's "Best on Beacon Hill" List ('24). Seattle Times lauds Cox’ “voluptuous cooking” and with Chef Cox on hand to answer your questions and discuss his food “odyssey", we can't wait to taste it for ourselves!
