Pintxo’s Bacon-Wrapped Birthday

Pintxo’s Bacon-Wrapped Birthday...

In Belltown’s rotating sea of trendy bars and nightclubs, Pintxo offers safe harbor to those who want a good meal and a tasty drink but could stand to skip the parade of scene-y yuppies looking to reclaim their youth. We love seeing good businesses succeed, so we’re pretty excited that Pintxo is celebrating their second birthday on Sunday, May 6. And the fact that they’re celebrating with FREE paella, drink...

Weekend Round-Up: 4/27-4/29...

April is winding down, and while it doesn’t look like we’ll be working on our tans very much this weekend, it certainly doesn’t mean that we need to stay inside. Despite the clouds, this weekend is packed full of some pretty fabulous to-dos. So get out there and do ‘em! Dumplings. Sticky Rice. Bubble Tea. Humbow. If reading that list just made you hungry, then you can’t miss Seattle Dumpling...

So you know how you keep telling yourself that sticking a cardboard box (which you stole from behind a QFC) in front of your couch and calling it a coffee table is totally working in a deconstructed-shabby-chic kind of way? Well, it’s not. In fact, your whole apartment is looking kind of shabby. It is springtime, after all, and even if the sun isn’t quite shining, you can make your interior look a lot better with...

FREE Wine Tasting at Bar Ferd’nand

FREE Wine Tasting at Bar Ferd’nand...

Based on how often the subject of wine comes up on this blog, you guys probably know that I’m kinda-sorta a fan of the stuff. I’ll happily taste any new offering that comes my way (well, okay, I do draw the line somewhere), but I have to say that my favorite wine is the kind that I get to try for free. (Note: consumption of free wine is generally associated with large impulsive purchases, at least by me). Well,...

Green Point’s Anniversary: Free Acupuncture for ...

I was gonna write this gushing ode about my favorite little sliding scale acupuncturist, but then the fine people at Green Point Acupuncture wrote such nice words in their email to me that I just ripped it off, slightly edit it and put it below to show you. Here we go: Photo courtesy of Green Point Acupuncture In the last two years, Green Point Acupuncture has been diligently working to improve the health and well-being of...

Weekend Round Up: 4/20-4/22...

Happy Friday, y’all. I hope you made it through the week with little stress or, at the very least, lots of coffee. It might be cloudy now but I’m seeing forecasts of sun and 70 degrees on Saturday. If that’s not a reason to celebrate then I don’t even know what to tell you. The upcoming weekend looks beautiful and offers a variety of ways to get out of the house and into some fun shenanigans....

Golfin’ in the Streets: $5 Golf Lessons in Downtown

Golfin’ in the Streets: $5 Golf Lessons in D...

I’m not a good golfer, but I’m pretty fun to bring along for a game of putt-putt. If you like a wise-cracking, trash-talking teammate with a general lack of hand-eye coordination, you should really call me next time the mini-golf bug strikes. But if you like to visit actual golf courses, wear polo shirts and can use a ball-washer without giggling like an 11-year-old boy, I won’t be of much help. I can,...
