Holiday Detox: HotHouse Spa & Sauna

Holiday Detox: HotHouse Spa & Sauna...

It’s true- the gift-giving holidays are over.  No more presents to exchange or large groups of family in tiny tiny spaces to endure.  You can breathe. Of course, if family tension has put a permanent crick in your neck, or if you overindulged in Christmas cookies (and pie, and stuffing, and say, a wheel of Brie that you ate all by yourself yesterday), breathing may feel a little more difficult today.  And if...

File this under “only in Seattle”: the hottest place to go out tonight involves you, a book, an old-fashioned hotel lobby and a whole lot of quiet. Yes kids, Silent Reading Night at the Sorrento Hotel is back.  Every Wednesday night in the fall, from 6:00 – 9:00 pm, the Fireside Room transforms itself into, well, a library.  Except you have to bring your own book and they have booze.  You just show up,...

Happy Birthday to WINE! Poco Wine Room turns 4...

There are a lot of reason that I am a big fan of Poco Wine Room- a) it’s a wine bar with GREAT food, so I’m pretty much sold just walking in, b) the servers don’t make you feel like a total tool if you ask for a glass of “bor-dux, c) they have a really great happy hour, d) their really great happy hour has a chocolate sampler on it EVERY DAY.  So yeah, the fact that a business featuring good food,...
