PIKE PLACE MARKET—Beecher's New York City location opens shortly, and its Flatiron Cheese, a tribute to its Flatiron District location, will be available in about two months. Hanna Raskin reports, however, that "a batch which got its start in Seattle and was transferred to New York for finishing will go on sale at both stores Friday." [Seattle Weekly]

DOWNTOWN—RN74 Seattle has scheduled its first "behind the bottle" wine event, taking advantage of Mina Group wine director Rajat Parr while he's in Seattle for the summer. The June 27 introduction to Burgundy event includes a three-course meal from Michelle Retallack and a flight of wines for $95. [EaterWire]

CAPITOL HILL—From the looks of a recent liquor license application, the new bear bar going in at 14th and Union will be called Diesel. [EaterWire]

WHITE CENTER—Sarap Cafe, a food truck serving a mix of Filipino fare and hot dogs, cold cut sandwiches, nachos and such, is permanently parked at 16th Avenue SW and 100th Street SW. Sarap is tagalog for "delicious". [WCN]
