Have you read the profile in The Seattle Times of Robin Leventhal and Mercer Island’s soon-to-open Stopsky’s Delicatessen?

Stopksy’s in the name of love! Snake River Wagyu pastrami? Seattle’s Ebb+Flow gin-cured lox? Chicken-liver mousse stuffed in a pickled egg? Be still my beating heart attack! I caught up with Leventhal as she prepared to open for business at 3016 78th Ave. S.E., where she’s been given creative license to make Mercer Island a deli-food destination.

The Mercer Island Farmers Market is very pleased that Robin will be one of the local chefs featured at the Mercer Island Farmers Market this coming market season. She is planning something special for her demo at the market on Father’s Day.

Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks.
