I can hardly believe my eyes. It has actually come true. Check this out.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Erin Brindley And Terry Podgorski of Circus Contraption have left the Circus behind in order to give Seattle what it deserves: an infamous, notoriously antisocial, part-genius, part-sociopath, questionably-sentient culinary pioneer and conveyer of dangerously delicious food, Chef Nordo Lefesczki.
Nordo Lefesczki, Carnal food movement founder and Executive Chef of the roving experimental restaurant Café Nordo, makes his Seattle debut with “The Modern American Chicken”, a five course pre-fixe culinary experience. This October, Nordo’s team will create an intimate temporary restaurant in Fremont at the warehouse of Theo Chocolate, where for only seventeen evenings diners will experience this culinary rebellion. The menu bears witness to the life and death of a chicken, from the sweetly ignorant Country Egg on a Field of Wild Greens to the Beyond-it-all, Heaven or Hell Roasted Chicken, crispy-skinned and fiery with habanero cherries.
Your dining experience will be enhanced by musical and theatrical evocations of our Chicken’s time on earth, but please, do not refer to Café Nordo as Dinner Theater. Chef has been known to shut down entire restaurants at the mere whisper of such a term. Believe us—you will want to finish your meal.
Before inquiring after a vegetarian option, please consider two things: Our chicken is a vegetable, if she is what she eats, and Chef Nordo carries a large knife. Dietary restrictions? Certainly you have a shrink who will care. Nordo Lefesczki is a man of vision, not compromise. We will promise you that the meal will rely almost exclusively on the bountiful Northwest fall, and Nordo is intensely passionate about local, sustainable, and seasonal food. Cheat on your tofu; our chicken will convert you.
With only one seating per night, and only seventeen nights, tickets will sell out quickly. Act fast to experience this completely original food event.
"The much clamored-for ticket to the pre-fixed wonderment that is Cafe Nordo administered a fierce dose of culinary comeuppance to the stuffier of Houston's foodies." - The Cypress Times-Gazette
"Like a house of mirrors, Chef Nordo Lefesczki simultaneously laughs at and outdoes his peers with the sheer audacity of his food, his wacka-doodle-drank-the-kool-aid servers, and his ability to transport his patrons out of their comfort zones and into his strange and original mind. A chicken will never again just be a chicken." - Dover Journal
"Chez Panisse meets Medieval Times. On Acid." - Black Valley Post
"A complete farce...(with) ridiculous arrogance permeating from all levels of the establishment. The fact that the food was outstanding does not make the insult worth it." - Salt Lake Intelligencer
Tickets are available, in advance, from Brown Paper Tickets and include five courses and include a wine flight.
