This summer award-winning chef and Ballardite Renee Erickson of the Boat Street Cafe will open a new oyster bar in Ballard.
A look at the inside of the Kolstrand building by developer Chad Dale.
The Walrus and the Carpenter, named after this poem, is scheduled to open this July in the newly renovated Kolstrand Building (4743 Ballard Ave NW), developer Chad Dale tells us. According to the website, “The Walrus and the Carpenter blends the elegance of France with the casual comfort of a local fishing pub.” The new restaurant will be open at 4 p.m. daily and serve oysters, locally harvested clams and mussels, house-smoked fish, frites, seasonal soups, salads, fresh local organic vegetables, cured meats, cheese and grilled sausages. They will also serve Sunday brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. An outdoor eating space is also planned.
Incredibly good news for Ballard! I can’t wait….
