We have recently added a selection of All-Clad cookware to our online store. For decades, All-Clad creations have been revered as quintessential cookware designs, and preserved as archival standards. Though often emulated, demanding chefs and discriminating home cooks realize that nothing compares to an All-Clad original.
This salad is an absolute delight! Add some grilled pork tenderloin or chicken breast to it and you have a complete meal. Use a Cherry Chomper from Poggi Bonsi so cherries are perfectly sliced without the mess.
Sweet, fresh cherries make this light, early summer salad equally perfect for a buffet lunch or part of a simple family meal. Use a Cherry Chomper from Poggi Bonsi so cherries are perfectly sliced without the mess.

All roads lead to Poggibonsi, or at least that’s what it appeared when one Renton business owner was lost in Tuscany more than 10 years ago.
And so Keli DeRitis convinced friend Michelle Codd that the name Poggi Bonsi, split for tongue-tied Americans, would be perfect for a European-style kitchen store.
The import-savvy business is among 20 other companies in the United States to take part in the Made in Italy national promotion this week.
Along with free events, the storefront is packed with special Italian wares through May 22, Codd said. “We’re just celebrating Italy.”
Ruth Mitchell, long time Poggi Bonsi customer, and professional baker has opened a new business–”Anti Thann’s Back Porch Bakery.” Ruth will be selling her “Palm Pies” which are freshly baked, easy-to-eat mini pies made from locally grown fruit at local Farmers Markets. The pies are available in lots of yummy flavors including apple, mixed berry, cherry, peach, pear, pumking and sweet potato. Ruth’s Farmers Market schedule is below.
Come to Poggi Bonsi at the Landing in Renton Friday, May 7 from 5-7 and meet Ruth. She’ll be helping us with a cupcake decorating demo along with Carrie Middlemiss of Bella Cupcake Couteur and Pete from caffe Umbria. Stop by for some samples and pick up a gift for mom!
Ruth Mitchelle’s Farmers Market Schedule:
Starting May 21st, 9am – 2pm at Tacoma Farmers Markets - 9th & Broadway.
Then Jun 1st, Tues, 3pm – 7pm, at Tacoma Farmers Market at 6th & Pine St.
And on Jun 21st, Sun, 11am – 3pm at Tacoma Farmers Market at 54th & Washington.
Poggi Bonsi has been selected by the Italian Trade Commission as one of only 20 retailers in the United States to host the 2010 “Made in Italy” national promotion.
From May 9 to 22, 2010 Poggi Bonsi will host the work of Italian artisans — including hand painted ceramics, terra cotta, jewelry, olive oil and more — these products will be featured in our store at The Landing in Renton. On May 16 from 4-7pm Poggi Bonsi will host a reception featuring Italian food and wine.
