Seattle-Episode Five

Anu Apte - The Rob Roy

Having recently been named one of America's best classic cocktail lounges by David Wondrich in USA Today and a must visit bar in Seattle by Seattle Met Magazine, Rob Roy is on its way up. According to Anu Apte, owner and bartender, it has been on the rise ever since she seized the opportunity to buy the business and take it up "a couple notches." Billy had the chance to chat with Anu about Rob Roy and to mix up one of its eponymous cocktails using their hand cracked ice.

Salumi Artisan Cured Meats

Meat is delicious! Especially when cut and ground up and cured by Salumi Artisan Cured Meats in Seattle. Gina Batali (you might have heard of her brother Mario Batali) and her husband helped to transform her father Armandino's little sandwich shop from a little sandwich shop into, well, a little sandwich shop that ships artisan cured meats to the best stores and restaurants across the country. They are open four days a week and are packed every one of them. If you are in Seattle, you should pick up a sandwich. If you are are somewhere else, get online and order up some meat!
