Even on her way out she delivers the big stuff.
On Sunday evening Jess Voelker—whose last day at Seattle Met was last week —was the first to tweet huge news: that Murray Stenson has joined the crew at Canon, the new cocktail emporium of Jamie Boudreau.
In May the legendary barman departed from his longtime post at Zig Zag. His plan was to take a gig at Michael Mina’s RN74. That never panned out, however, and Stenson has laid low since.
According to Eater and Seattle Weekly, Stenson will tend three nights a week; which ones are yet to be determined.
Oooh. That’s fantastic! I want to go pick his brain to see if he can help me come up with some low amine cocktails (http://aminerecipes.com) that don’t taste like they’re missing anything. Getting pretty tired of vodka cran, and I know he’ll have some great ideas for things I can actually order up at bars.
