Cantinetta Eastside Opening

Joanne & Ted Baseler, Cathi & Ken Hatch

Ken and I enjoyed checking out Cantinetta, the sleek, yet comfortable feeling, new restaurant that just opened in our neighborhood on Main Street last week.  We attended the private pre-opening evening for friends and family and could see that they obviously have alot of friends and family as the opening was standing room only.  It was one of the few hot evenings in Seattle this summer and the HVAC system was definitely overwhelmed.

Restauranteur Trevor Greenwood, welcomed us to his new Eastside restaurant where we ran into several old friends and met new ones as well.  We were happy to see our good friends, Joanne & Ted Baseler and shared a glass of wine at the bar.  Cantinetta Ambassador, Columba McGlynn, was there with his cousin, Kevin McGlynn, and doing a great job of introducing people to one another and connecting them.  He introduced us to some of the original customers of the existing Cantinetta, located in Wallingford in Seattle, Joe Schneider and Kim Clements who have promised to get us a table at the Wallingford Cantinetta when we are in the neighborhood.

I look forward to going back soon to try the food!
