Tom Douglas: UPDATED


Newark native Tom Douglas, who owns several top rated Seattle restaurants, is featured in today's Wall Street Journal. He has a recipe for Sake-Steamed Sockeye Salmon With Sake Butter

The St. Mark's graduate also is up for one of the biggest culinary honors this year. He was nominated by the James Beard Foundation as one of the country's most outstanding restaurateurs.

Douglas is competing against Mario Batali, Wolfgang Puck, Jean-Georges Vongerichten and Richard Melman.

The awards are Sunday night. We're keeping our fingers crossed.
UPDATE: Mario Batali and his business partner Joe Bastianich took home the award. There's always next year, Tom.
