If we learned anything from Moby Dick, it’s that the whale always wins and you could probably avoid a brutal and untimely death if you just remember that. This is probably the reason why Renee Erickson focuses on smaller fish, like trout, at her new Fremont resto. Third time’s a charm for Erickson who is already a hero among local foodophiles for her role in Boat Street Café and the Walrus and the Carpenter. Her newest aquatically named venture possesses similar qualities to her previous two, like a focus on piles of rustic wood fired eats and the sort of clean, stylish interior that’s...
Renee Erickson has done it again. Simple but beautiful food served up thoughtfully in a room to match. Don't miss the bone marrow, trout or sardines on toast. The daily happy hour 3:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. is a great value with bites just $3 - $7.
Come w/other adventurous eaters and plan to share. Sardines on toast is a winner, as is the Wattle and Daub rum, coffee liqueur and grapefruit cocktail.
Two things you’re guaranteed at a Renee Erickson restaurant: stylish digs and delicious food. Erickson's latest enterprise, The Whale Wins, delivers on both. Enjoy lunch or dinner in the dining room or cozy up to the Pac Northwest elements in the garden patio. The ‘Whale Call Happy Hour’ serves up tasty deals like sardines, curried tomato paste & shaved fennel resting on top of grilled toast.
