Tom Douglas has announced his latest downtown eatery: The Carlile Room at Ninth and Pine, across from the Paramount Theatre, will feature wine, cheese and rotisserie rib roast and is tentatively slated to open June 1. The eatery's namesake? Brandi Carlile.

Writes Eater's Allecia Vermillion, "Douglas isn't shy about the fact that the singer was his naming inspiration. He has a soft spot for a certain type of 'great crooner' (he also name checked Annie Lennox, Bonnie Raitt, and Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks...the man needs his own Pandora channel) and he and Carlile both got their start in Pike Place Market."

No word yet on how Brandi feels about Tom's homage.
