April was a tough month for us starting off with a bunch of high moments and then a crushing downer that our regular readers will be familiar with from posts over the past few weeks. So we resolved to change our mojo, clear our heads and then try and figure out what to do next. [...]

Skillet Diner

Last week for Keith-O’s birthday, we finally checked out Skillet Street Food’s new permanent spot, Skillet Diner. I knew my sister had chosen the right spot when I glanced over at the bar and saw the special cocktail of the night: Old Grumpy Man They serve breakfast all day and faniced up comfort food for [...]

When I saw one of BK’s favorite’s, Michael Ruhlman, was coming to town to promote his new book I knew we should snap up tickets quick. Since the event was organized as an intimate dinner the day before my birthday, BK bought the tix so we could celebrate a day early – even better, the Sailer’s got [...]
Hunger + Milk Bar = Delicious

Avid readers of the blog know that BK & I fell in love with the cookies at Momfuku Milk Bar while we were in New York last summer – so, when I saw the Milk Bar pastry chef had a new cookbook coming out AND she would be in Seattle at Book Larder to promote it, I [...]

To celebrate our first anniversary BK gave me a few different fun adventures for us to enjoy in the coming months, starting with tonight’s outing to Palace Ballroom for Tom Douglas’ Ice Cream Social. 7 of Seattle’s ice cream purveyors were on hand to dole out samples of their goods and we noshed away: from [...]

Last night we went to cooking class at Dish It Up in Ballard, a present from my parents. My mom and I had previously been to a jam-making class at their magnolia store so it was nice to check out the Ballard location as well. Mom had signed us up for “Alfresco Summer dining” taught by John [...]
Canlis

I’ve lived in Seattle pretty much my whole life and even if you haven’t you probably know about Canlis. It’s an institution, the oldest fine dining restaurant in the Seattle area that I’m aware of and people spanning a wide range of ages all seem to have been there at some point. Whether it was back in [...]

BK and I tried out the new biscuit bar this morning and it was pretty yummy. I had ham and cheese while BK tried the fennel sausage and red pepper. Go give it a try! (Side note: I do not currently recommend the new dumpling place down the street from same owner – pricey and [...]
Week of Eats

Coming home from Hawaii we had an empty fridge and no chance to food shop until the weekend. Therefore, we hit up a couple old favorites and a couple newer spots to sustain us. Wednesday night was Pagliacci because we were getting home late and BK is always craving pizza. He had his usual South [...]

Special thanks go out to the Tully’s crew for our pre-Valentine’s Day dinner! We had only been to Olivar once before but it quickly became a favorite so were excited to receive a wedding present gift certificate to go try it again. What I really enjoy about Olivar is that they are essentially doing a tapas style [...]
