I'm not from the west side of things, so I was in awe of the view this place had. Essentially we were on the equivalent of a roof deck with a clear view of the mountains and the calm bay. I can see why this place wouldn't get high marks, and if I…More »
This was so nice to grab breakfast before a hike. We got some rugelach, a bagel, and a really great cup of coffee. The woman at the register was so nice in talking us through some other local options for lunch.
My friend has a theory about hotels. It all lies in the bathroom and from there, it can tell you everything you need to know about the rest of the place. The bathroom is very clean, modern, and well-stocked with things called hair protector and…More »

I'm overall not really impressed with the brews out west. This place had a parking lot beer garden which wasn't really welcoming. We ate regular bar food over a few beers. I liked the apricot ale and appreciated how close it was to Safeco.
Raider is right on. Marv's made me so mad at myself. Why oh why did I eat so close to the game. I should have saved room for the wondermeat that is the reuben dog. Their tagline is "Sometimes you just gotta have it." No, they got it wrong. It…More »
We weren't supposed to be here. We were supposed to be in our $13 bleacher seats to the left of home plate. We were armed with Mac & Jacks and majorly loaded hot dogs. The first inning was underway, and all of a sudden, the usher starts calling…More »
In my drunken state there is never a wrong time for something called cajun tots. Ever. We came here after a Mariners game and stuck around binging on tots and Ruby raspberry ales. We took full advantage of their 10:00pm-12:00am Happy Hour with…More »

When I came to Seattle, I was determined to have as much fish as humanly possible for every meal I ate. After much deliberation from some friendly Welpers (western Yelpers), many people recommended I come here. I always was a sucker for Sleepless…More »
I now have a perfect ritual. Inspired by this place, I now will send eatable gifts to loved ones from wherever I am. I really wanted to stray away from the massive crowds oohing and ahhing over airborne fish, so I chose this place. These guys were…More »

We needed a quick and easy place to spend three days in Vancouver this July, and based on the price, we thought we would try here. It's in a really pretty neighborhood and in walking distance of downtown if you don't mind walking. It's also close…More »
On my 1st anniversary, my husband and I biked the Burke Gillman Trail from Queen Anne to Agua Verde. We paddled around Lake Union, avoiding the Sleepless in Seattle houseboat because we wanted to cover more ground with less boats around. We went…More »
I learned I don't really like lychee after I had a cocktail at the bar waiting for our table to free up. I was glad for the wait because we were seated facing the water. It never felt like we were in a restaurant with other people. The table was…More »
I am just now realizing we ate the exact pizza that Tyler Florence proclaimed as the best pizza he's ever eaten!
Damn, I wanted to be original out of the 800 some-odd people who reviewed this place...
Anyway, between the two of us, we gorged on three…More »

Very random location and even more random inside. They clearly take care with ingredients and were obliging when I asked for a roll off menu. We took it to go sit outside, but the rolls feel apart pretty quickly. Messy, but overall okay.

People don't really eat late lunches around town. We were hungry for lunch around 2:00 or 3:00 and found this place. We got the thai duck sticks and pad thai which were just okay. Nothing remarkable. Service was really great, but we were 1 of two…More »

I didn't do full research with this place. I had just yelped it and knew it was one that shouldn't be missed.
We were WAY under dressed. My solution? Sit at the bar and pretend you were going to do that the WHOLE time.
The bartenders there are by far…More »
Thanksgiving It On The Big Island (2)I got the Friday after Thanksgiving off for the first time since beginning work. You would think that would mean we would spend meaningful time with family? Nope, we went big! |
Bars About Town (11)More for my amusement, here is a list of every bar I've been to in NYC. Mainly sticking to just places I get a drink- no biergardens (see other list). It's all about pride, never shame! |
My Birthday Month (8)I don't tell people readily when my birthday is because I think it is attention-seeking behavior. So why in the world advertise the month as a celebration to me? Here's why: I do all the things I love. |
Biergartens and Breweries (12)There may be no greater way to enjoy a beer amongst long communal tables, schnitzel, and greenery. Throw in places where the beer is literally made a few feet away, and you have a list reminiscent of home. |
What's Joey's Favorite Food? (9)SANDWICHES! And Joey doesn't share food!. I won't share either, but I will share my favorite places to get possibly my favorite type of food. |
My Favorite Food (7)Most people say pizza. I say if you gave me a bacon cheeseburger for every meal for the rest of my life, I would be the happiest woman in the world. |
The Thrill In My Life (9)Having lived in Chapel Hill for 12 years, I took a lot for granted. Now having been away for almost 5 years, I crave coming home and going to these set places to get my fix under the pretty (non-Carolina blue) sky. Go Duke! |
The Great Circle in My Belly (12)It's the pizza list! |
Taking Easy (9)Me gallivanting through NOLA, and by gallivanting, I mean eating my face off. |
Somewhere Beyond the Sea (14)I adore Ocracoke for my beach-going vacations. There are three sides to these reviews. The ones where I was a poor college student and camping every day, the ones when I got married here, and the ones where I am still slightly poor, married and happy. Basically, here are the ins and outs to staying on the best beach/island in America! |
