I’m selfishly sad to report that pastry chef extraordinaire Neil Robertson has left Canlis. I’ve loved what he was doing there.
Neil wrote: “It was a complicated and painful decision, but what it really came down to was my inability to find a sustainable balance between the job and personal life. My time there was hugely rewarding, and the Canlis family could not have been more supportive.”
He’ll be traveling to Japan for a few weeks in May. After that, I hope we’ll get to enjoy his work somewhere else in our town.

This is bad news for Canlis customers but great news for me, since he lives down the hill from me.
and no worries: we are already thinking of ways to keep Neil busy and all of us beautifully well-desserted in Seattle is that a word?
