Best for Literate foodies

I have to say, it does seem like Michael Pollan comes to town a lot. I guess he knows his audience. We are a city of local-leaning foodies who love a good lecture.

So I am fairly certain that there is someone on your list who wants tickets to see Pollan on January 15 at Seattle Symphony. Those tickets start at $25.

But if you want to really get your favorite foodie going, opt for the Premium Seating option. The $250 price buys a space in the first four rows as well as a space at a post-lecture dinner with the Pollanator himself—a multi-course, locally sourced feast with courses cooked by some very good Chefs: Tamara Murphy (Elliott Bay Cafe), Christine Keff (Flying Fish), Holly Smith (Cafe Juanita), and Maria Hines (Tilth). Each course comes with a wine pairing.

The dinner benefits the Neighborhood Farmers Market Alliance, $130 of the price is tax deductible.
