Brian and I had the pleasure of attending Heidi Bright’s broker’s open this week in the Bridle Trails neighborhood of Kirkland.  It was a beautiful home, and well-attended.  The highlight (for us, at least), was the Tom Douglas catered food.  We thought that it might be just a spread of his restaurant’s food, but as we walked into the kitchen, there was Tom himself, braising beef and cooking some creamy polenta on the stove.

Tom’s a big guy, (if you couldn’t already tell from the picture with Brian).  He’s also a surprisingly low-key, down to Earth guy for a local celeb.  It’s not every day you can shoot the breeze about how long to braise a piece of beef with a big-name chef who is at the same time slicing your food up for you and serving it.

Kudos to Heidi for the event, and thanks to Tom for the entertainment.  That’s a broker’s open I would show up for any week.
