"First we eat, then we do everything else," said M.F.K Fisher, the great American
food writer. Yes. And the "everything else" in this case is two live jazz brunch
shows that follow Valentine's Day Weekend. Which means a special menu from
Chef John Eisenhart and his team. February at Nel Centro is all kinds of beautiful.

Alden, Larry Coryell, Lee Konitz and
Carl Allen, and has studied with
Russell Malone, Wallace Roney,
Christian McBride and Lewis Nash. What diners are saying about Nel Centro
"Nel Centro hits a lot of notes well, with a friendly hipster vibe in a swish
update of a 70s hotel. Great menu with tasty local fish and steaks for the
carnivores. Osso Buco is delish. Great inventive appetizers and a deep wine
list balancing the Pacific NW best with Euro faves at all price points."
