Masterminded by Travis Kukull, formerly at Tilikum Place Cafe and Elemental, brand-spanking-new Gastropod shares Epic Ales’ tasting room in Georgetown and has a short but fascinating-looking menu—click to enlarge at right.

Epic founder/brewer Cody Lee Morris says they want to create “a more experimental brewpub,” with small plates that rotate as often as their taps do, letting them “totally transform roughly every other week.” Also, their logo has a cute snail.

As of yesterday: "Also a new item has been added to the menu: rabbit liver cheesecake." And note that this Sunday, they're celebrating their grand opening with "Pig and Paella"—roasting a whole pig and making a giant veggie paella, only $5 for a plate of one or both—from 4 to 8 p.m.

What do you suppose you will be served if you order the "trout role"? Will it recite "To be or not to be?" Will it sing "Tomorrow"?

That all sounds pretty darned precious.

Epic Ales makes great, high quality, unusual beers. I guess the food matches it.

When did SoDo turn into Georgetown?

@4 - No joke.

According to Wikipedia, Georgetown is "bounded on the north by the mainlines of the BNSF." This restaurant is a good mile north of that boundary.

Between King and Spokane streets, it's SoDo.
