Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi has been in our midst the last two days, and surprising no one, she's dined well. On Instagram, she's given shout outs to How to Cook a Wolf:
Pike Place Market:
and Mamnoon:
Concerning Mamnoon, Lakshmi specifically calls out the restaurant's Soup for Syria fundraiser scheduled for tomorrow, and makes a plea for attendance and donations. "[Co-owner] Racha [Haroun] shows great pride and respect for her homeland, one of the world's most ancient and fascinating places," Lakshmi writes. "This post is not about the food. This is about life and death. This is for hundreds and thousands of Rachas and their parents and children and brothers and sisters."
Again, for the event, soups from local chefs will be served for a $35 donation, and a full-course meal with a copy of the Soup for Syria cookbook will be available for a $250 donation. Just show up for the soup or reserve space by calling (206) 906 9606 or emailing reservations@mamnoonrestaurant.com. Find more details on the restaurant's site.
