Hell’s Kitchen Is Still Hot!

Celebrate the sensational Slurpee this weekend and head to your local 7-Eleven on Saturday July July 11th for a freebie serving of your favourite flavour.

Friday, July 10th is Cow Appreciation Day at Chik-Fil-A. Unfortunately, there are no chicken shacks here in Seattle (closest locale is up in Bellingham on campus at Western). Still, we couldn’t pass up promoting a food event this cool. Simply fully dress up like a cow (they say you must “make an effort head to [...]

Well, maybe not exactly to the death, but it is delightfully good fun to watch the professional foodies get berated by judging diners, whether they be curmudgeon critics or silly girl scouts.
