Olav Peterson plates halibut.
This week I review Bittersweet, Olav and Melissa Peterson's six-month-old restaurant that features a menu of artisanal, old-world cuisine with a modern twist. I spent a particularly pleasant evening on the eatery's patio recently, surrounded by a kitchen garden and meandering through Olav's new summer menu.

Here's a serving of food porn to go with that review. To see more photos of Bittersweet, check out our slide show.

Bittersweet's gazpacho is a take on the traditional Spanish recipe that includes both seafood and bread.

I always expected food porn to be more of a turn on.  Did your little bro take these pics
