We've already declared Seattle a Chocolopolis. To that, we add that Seattle is also a Baconopolis. Especially tonight, when Tom Douglas hosts what he's calling "bacon's biggest social event ever."

We went with a couple of the daily experiments. One was the Burger of the Gods. The "super beef" was tantalizingly tasty and juicy, with candied balsamic onions and super gorgonzola sauce adding complementary sweetness and substance.

The duck and pork combination was fatty and fun, but the soft salami atop was too salty, and combined with havarti cheese, sautéed onions, roasted shallots, and tomato sauce, simply overpowered the "dork."
