Nordo, celebrating five years in its Culinarium, served up some fun during quarantine. Soon after the stay-at-home order was announced, Nordo realized its rare and one-of-a-kind wine, bookmarked for an upcoming show, needed a home. Thus they began a delivery service to bring this lovely wine to the greater Seattle area. In June, they expanded their delivery options to charcuterie plates and cocktail kits. And, entertainment is still on the menu just virtually, for now. Check out Nordo's YouTube videos featuring test kitchen and kitchen basics tutorials for inspiration on your self-isolation menu.
From their audacious launch in the empty warehouse of Theo Chocolate's factory in 2009 as Café Nordo to the opening of their beautiful Pioneer Square Culinarium, Nordo has been committed to creating new worlds of flavor and story for Seattle audiences. They have reinvented the concept of dinner theater with original, immersive theatrical productions that have garnered critical praise and a loyal member base. Nordo's shows are born from the hive mind of inventive composers, actors, visual artists, chefs, theater makers, and designers. In 2015, they opened Nordo's Culinarium where the Elliot Bay Book Company once lived in historic Pioneer Square. In 2019 they added The Knife Room at Nordo, an active arts incubator, events space, and performance venue.
