Bring Marcus Samuelsson to Seattle - Dinner

Bring Marcus Samuelsson to Seattle! Born in Ethiopia and raised in Sweden, Marcus Samuelsson brought the art of Scandinavian cooking to New York long before the recent Nordic craze. As executive chef at New York's Aquavit, he turned an entire city on to gravlax and herring, giving Swedish cuisine a modern, luxurious turn.

There is little that Marcus hasn't done, except visit us at the Swedish Club. So on May 9, we'll give him a proper invitation. Meet at the Club to enjoy Samuelsson's recipes prepared by our chefs and sign a giant card inviting him to visit.

P.S. Tonight's guests will be first in line for tickets when Marcus does visit the Club!
