Too Much Tuesday!

Too Much Tuesday!...

Okay, so usually we chat it up about one specific fun Yay-Today event everyday. But today there’s just so much to do that I couldn’t focus on just one fun thing. I blame it on the fact that people are doing stuff since the sun’s still shining after 6pm. Whatever the case, here are your options: a) Go to Ballard Authors & Neighbors Event from 7-9pm at Sunset Hill Community Club to check out over 25...

The Sunset: Bloodfest, for free!...

So, I’ve only been once but I keep promising myself that I’ll make it back to another Kung Fu Grindhouse. Why? Well, I’m glad I asked myself: Photo courtesy of Kung Fu Grindhouse 1. Kung Fu Grindhouse is a once-a-month event at The Sunset Tavern that features ridiculous movies for free, from 7pm onward. There’s usually a theme. Tonight’s showing is NIGHT OF TERRORS, which obviously means awesome...

Weekend Round-Up: Win $100 Seattle Restaurant Week...

Now that we’re two weeks in to the month of October, I’m finally accepting the fact that fall is actually here.  I mean, you can’t ignore the signs- the air is decidedly crisper (no more delusions of summer left), I’ve gone into full-on panic mode re: my 2010 Halloween costume, and this Sunday marks the beginning of my favorite holiday of the year- Seattle Restaurant Week!  Okay, so that may not be a...

Kona Kitchen: Jokes are on the menu

Kona Kitchen: Jokes are on the menu...

Yelp likes it. Urban Spoon likes it. And even the long lost Seattle PI liked it way back when. It = Kona Kitchen and apparently their Hawaiian cuisine is exactly what you want, if you like Hawaiian cuisine. Photo courtesy of Kona Kitchen But enough about the food that costs money. We’re here to let you know about the free stuff, right? Well, tonight is your night. Because every 2nd Thursday (which upon my calculation...

Sonic Boom In-Store Performance: Die Antwoord

Sonic Boom In-Store Performance: Die Antwoord...

I’ve never heard of Die Antwoord, but apparently I should with the following they seem to have on Facebook. From a first listen they seem like fun hip hop meets house beats meets Tokyo vibes (I was only a little off geographically – they’re actually from Cape Town). And while they’ll be performing at the Paramount tonight for cash money, you can also see them for free at Sonic Boom in Ballard! Photo...

Ventana turns 1, you get dinner 50% off!...

I love birthdays- especially when they aren’t mine.  I love them even more when the birthday boy or girl is the one giving the presents- and that’s exactly what Ventana, one of my favorite spots in Belltown, is doing to celebrate it’s 1st year in business.  For the entire month of October, any group of 4 or more gets 50% off their dinner bill when they pay in cash and say “I know Dave!” when...
