Even though I personally love salmon, I sure don’t want it at every meal. For events such as the MVP Global Summit where we utilize several different venues to provide meals, Salmon “could” get scheduled a lot since all venues suggest a Pacific Northwest menu option. I thought you might like to see what’s in store for you meal-wise. Note that if you ordered a “special meal” it’s not on the list below.

Notice…no Salmon!

Aww, no salmon, I quite enjoyed the salmon last year. The menu looks delicious though. :)
Sunday evening assorted sushi won't have salmon? :)
Yum... after reading this my stomach requires that I go forage for food...
Does "full Starbucks" include their Tazo tea?
Dang Paulette...
I've been looking forward to getting a bunch of salmon... seriously!
So glad to see this not include Salmon everyday; because I don't eat any seafood at all; and was pretty stuck with not much to eat a few times at a recent MVP Summits! Thank you!
Looks very nice. I lot of vegetarian dishes though - More meat please!
For those of you who still want to get your dose of Salmon, our resident event expert Lora Reed offers this advice:
Here are some thoughts for different restaurants around Seattle and Bellevue:
McCormick and Schmick’s, two locations, 722 Fourth Ave and 1103 First Ave
The Oceanaire Seafood Room, 1700 7th Ave
Yama at the Galleria (if they happen to stay on the Eastside), Bellevue Galleria*
*They have an amazing Asian fusion salmon!
For the person who asked about Tazo teas, our event team replied:
At the WSCTC, we have Tazo teas. On campus it is Bigelow tea. And yes, it is part of the package so is no additional charge.

Why is vegetarian on option for the dietary requirements, but not carnivore? I tried adding it one time under other but oh well :)
I'm going to miss the salmon as well as being a prairies boy we eat lots of beef etc, but when I hit the coast I do enjoy seafood.
But all said and done, it appears that once again we will be well fed, thanks Microsoft.
