Happy Birthday Hot Cakes!

Happy Birthday Hot Cakes!...

I fancy myself as an unofficial cookie connoisseur. My love affair with the most perfect dessert started when I was 15 and got a job at Sweet Martha’s Cookie Jar booth at the Minnesota State Fair. I worked until midnight for 10 days straight, making cookie dough until my hands froze from cracking cold eggs; enduring battle scars on my forearms from hot cookie sheets; and hawking thousands upon thousands of ooey-gooey...
The Brunch Bunch: Joule

The Brunch Bunch: Joule...

Note: This post originally ran on 11/27/12, so keep in mind that the lovely folks at Joule change up their brunch menu every month. But that just means you have more reasons for return visits.) It’s no secret that I’m kind of obsessed with everything that comes out of the kitchen at sister restaurants Joule and Revel. And my fanaticism doesn’t exactly make me a culinary trailblazer- fancy restaurant critics...
Food Truck Roundup: Good Food, Good Cause, One Price

Food Truck Roundup: Good Food, Good Cause, One Pri...

What would you say if I told you that this Sunday, you can get food from some of your favorite Seattle food trucks, some adult beverages from some of your favorite local wineries, breweries and distilleries and raise money for a good cause for just $25? Oh, and there are a finite number of tickets for this event, so you won’t spend the whole time waiting in line, crying as your favorite trucks announce that they just...

I don’t have to do much to sell you on my new favorite cafe, Wine Tea Chocolate. I mean, with a name like that, you’re probably already a fan, even if this is the first time you’ve heard of it. Let me assure you- Wine Tea Chocolate lives up to its name, and much, much more. Offering delicious food, both savory and sweet, a roster full of awesome cheap and free events and  drinks to suit any mood, Wine Tea...

Bend, Twist and Drink at yoga uniQue...

I’m assuming you’ve been staring into the bright, bright sun wishing for it to keep at it just one more day. You’ve been getting spring-y and loving every second of it. Sadly, we all know how this weather saga is going to end up. You guessed it, the weather officially turns to meh this weekend. This doesn’t mean you have to give up all the fun you’ve been having and retreat into the darkness...
Frolik Kitchen Wins the Award for Best Patio in Seattle

On a gorgeous day like today (it’s nothing but bright blue skies and iced coffee while I am writing this), it’s hard to not spend your day fantasizing about ditching work too go enjoy a cocktail on a patio somewhere. Good news fellow sun-worshippers: Frolik Kitchen + Cocktails just opened downtown with what may be the nicest patio in all of Seattle. Throw in some delicious bites and innovative cocktails, and...
Happy Hour Review: Social Hour at Lloyd Martin

Happy Hour Review: Social Hour at Lloyd Martin...

Lloyd Martin is a teensy weensy restaurant on top of Queen Anne that makes some amazing, unique food… but it’s not exactly cheap eats. Dinner there is a splurge (though if their happy hour is any sign, a splurge that is totally worth it). Their Social Hour (that’s fancy for “happy hour”), however, is a great way to sample this fabulous restaurant at just a fraction of the price of a full meal....

Get 50% Off Your Bill At Madison Park Conservatory

Get 50% Off Your Bill At Madison Park Conservatory...

Nobody combines fancy food with an approachable attitude like the folks at Madison Park Conservatory. I’ve raved about their Tako Truk nights many times before – cocoa piggy tacos! – but now they’ve basically gone and made all of my culinary dreams come true by opening up their Library.Study.Lounge (that’s a hipster name for “bar”) Monday through Saturday, with happy hour from...
