In a city infamous for its Seattle Freeze, Daniel Padrnos requires guests at his dinner series to eat communal-style and mingle with the strangers sitting next to them. And with a little nudge (and a lot of wine), his guests may even raise a glass to toast to their new friends by the end of the night. Padrnos swears his quest to thaw the Freeze is not quixotic. “When I talk to Seattleites, they’re never happy about ‘the Freeze,’” said Padrnos, host of this new Georgian feast event in Madrona.

The only way to eat them is to get a $15 license, find a beach at low tide and start digging.
