In Seattle, you can't get closer to an authentic Paris bistro than this charming spot.

Dining room at Le Pichet, Seattle, WALe Pichet will transport you in minutes to the Left Bank with its simple bistro menu and charming low-key décor. The narrow dining room has tile floors and dark banquettes while a small, elegant zinc bar off to one side seats a few patrons. Owned and managed by chef Jim Drohman with his business partner Joanne Herron, Le Pichet (translated to "pitcher") offers four menus: Le Déjeuner (lunch), Le Dîner (dinner), La Charcuterie (various meats) and Le Casse Croûte (assorted snacks). Menu items change throughout the year, but count on charcuterie such as pâtés, sausages, and smoked or cured meats. During colder winter months, look for gratin Lyonnaise. Whole chickens are roasted to order, and may be accompanied by sautéed green beans with garlic. Daily specials, along with assorted cheeses and desserts, are listed on blackboards. The wine --- served by the glass from ceramic "pichets" or by the bottle --- is first-rate and fairly priced.
