Cafe Nordo's Cabinet of Curiosities
Beginning May 4, the doors of Washington Hall, Seattle's most pedigreed underground arts space, swing open to reveal Café Nordo's Cabinet of Curiosities a multi-room private collection of culinary exhibits, some not seen by the public since the early twentieth century. A dish exquisitely crafted by award winning Chef Nordo Lefesczki accompanies each room, enticing adventurers to use all five senses to experience the wonder of food. Flights of wine and originally composed music lace the delirious adventure. Guided by Seattle's most talented performers, the brave and hungry wend their way through the past and future of Carnal Food. Only the most seasonal and local interpretations of culinary lore find their way to the plate. Politics aside, Chef Nordo is committed to deliciousness.
The dining experience is both theatrical and intimate, only 60 seats available per night with a limited six week engagement.
Café Nordo's Cabinet of Curiosities is Chef Nordo Lefesczki's most ambitious five-course meal to date as his production team collaborates with local visual artists to transform Washington Hall. This building, located in the Central District, is a jewel of Seattle's cultural history, having hosted Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Spalding Grey, and Mark Morris. After falling into disrepair, Washington Hall was purchased by Historic Seattle in 2009. The gradual renovations take a pause as Café Nordo utilizes every secret staircase and backroom to exhibit the history of food. With rooms dedicated to Edible Invasive Species, (designed with artist Anne Blackburn,) French Culinary History, (designed with artist Mark Siano,) Herbal and Medicinal Uses for Food, (designed with Seattle Magazine Spotlight Award winner Mandy Greer,) among others, Café Nordo will create the most intimate and expansive use of Washington Hall to date.
Featuring music composition by Annastasia Workman, a script by Terry Podgorski, direction by Erin Brindley, and performances by Aimée Bruneau, Mark Siano, Maximillian Davis, Carter Rodriquez, Devin Bannon, Opal Peachey, Evan Mosher, Sachie Mikawa, and Keira McDonald, Café Nordo's Cabinet of Curiosities will provide a truly transporting five-course dining experience.
"Nordo shows are like visiting the imagination of a performer-chef who dreams of a world where flavors sing and dance, and stories get served like artwork on plates." Culture Mob
"...you sense a chef who somehow intuitively understands what you want and is lovingly, slowly creating it just for you..." The Stranger
"A fricassee of satire, zany antics and enlightened food consciousness, Café Nordo has a unique spin on dining, wine-ing and watching."- The Seattle Times
