San Ferminak Seattleen!!

Our friends at Txori, the pintxo bar in Belltown, have organized some fun events to celebrate San Fermin from July 7th to July 14th. Here’s the calendar of events from their newsletter:

Tonight, July 7th, begins our San Fermin Fest!!

Run with the Bulls at 8pm! You can sign-up all the way up until 7:30 tonight!

Come get your souvenir t-shirt, enjoy some great food & wine specials and Run With The Bulls! Plus… it’s all for a great cause!!

A mass of participants running up the two alleyways behind Txori in an effort not to get “gored” by one of the human-powered bulls dripping with red paint!  (Don’t worry – it washes out of your souvenir t-shirt.)  And help support The Puget Sound Blood Center – The BloodMobile will be on sight from 4-7pm!  And the Run starts promptly at 8pm.  So Come Join The Fun!!

We also have a host of other events to treat you to all that San Fermin has to offer.  TUESDAY - Bring your Brood and a Flock of Friends as we gather together as “Birds of a Feather!”  WEDNESDAY – we pay tribute to the man with the red cape. Our “Torero Night” brings you red wine and roses to toast the triumph of this great Spanish legend.  THURSDAY – Chef Joseba invites you to sample some of the best in Navarran wine.  Stop by for a sampling and stay for dinner!  FRIDAY & SATURDAY mark our First Annual Pintxo Competition.  Come in and vote for your favorite recipe and see who will be crowned “Pintxo Master!”  SUNDAY - features our film fest with two showings of “The Sun Also Rises” at 2pm & 8pm.  We wrap the festivities up on MONDAY at 6pm with our Monthly “Txoko Dinner.”
