Barking Frog, Woodinville

30Nov07

I don’t know how they did it, but they did. We were lured back to the Evil Eastside with the promise offered by a tasty menu. We should’ve known it would be bad once we met our Rico Suave waiter. He awkwardly flirted, despite our frowns, and performed some wine glass flipping to nobody’s delight. This [...]

Brasa, Belltown

30Nov07

Another Belltown locale. Same wine list. Same crappy parking. Same crowd of ugly bankers. Besides that, it wasn’t so bad. Have you ever had pork belly? Soft warm bacon, it’s true FattyChow. Add on a plate of Short Ribs and you’ll actually feel your ass grow in the seat. You might as well have the [...]

Restaurant Zoe, Belltown

30Nov07

These golden nuggets of creamy cheese are paried with browned buttery delight to perform a dance on your pallette. So stop whatever you are doing right now and get your ass down to Belltown. You won’t regret it. [...]

Herb Roasted Pork: Savory goodness
Profiterole: Chocolatey goodness
We discovered much tastiness at this bistro, and we charmed by the olive tree sprouting in the middle of [...]

Ray’s Boathouse, Shilshoe

15Nov07

Located on Shilshoe Marina, just west of ye ol’ Ballard, you’ll find Ray’s Boathouse. This is a classic Seattle icon, a place I can remember visiting as a young child. Some things have not changed, like the decaying customers. This place is full of ancient Swedes. You’d think there was an old lady farm (ie, [...]

Dine Around This, Seattle

14Nov07

This month we’re celebrating that twice a year event, Dine Around Seattle, formerly known as $25 for 25. First, a little bad news for us veterans, it’s now $30 for 30. While another $5 sure stings the pocket books, we figure we’ll just drink water and smuggle cocktails in our purse.
For you newbies, let us [...]
