Working out of here today and really love it - vibrant atmosphere. Just wish the WiFi connection was a little better...

Quoted: Tougo's is one of the best places to hang in this part of the neighborhood. A great place for quiet meetings or to just hang out and get some work done. They also have a new kid-friendly area in the back. The owner, Brian, is righteous. They have a good tea selection in addition to the usual. Great little hidden-away spot in Cap Hill/Central District.

I'm working out of Mezza Luna (from the former owners of Cafe Vega) and it's so great! Cozy, quiet, yummy food, free WiFi, big tables with plugs, and a nice community feel.

Quoted: All of our sandwiches will now be made on our house-made Ciabatta, Focaccia, or a Sweet Dough Roll.

My latest blog post ... about bagels ... yum.

Quoted: Greetings from New York, where I am currently in bagel bliss. I know, New Yorkers can be obnoxious about their bagels, among other things. But experiencing the chewy goodness all over again has got me thinking - maybe there really is something in the water tha tmakes New York bagels so damn tasty and tough to replicate.

My latest blog post. Mom, I think you'll enjoy the last paragraph :)

Quoted: Seattle Newcomer Examiner - Seattle's got some fantastic restaurants, like Wild Ginger and Palace Kitchen. But there's still something missing - the South Asian equivalent (that is, a restaurant/lounge with authentic but inventive Indian food and great ambiance).

Finally checking this place out! I have reservations for the deck and, of course, plans to see the burlesque show afterwards :)

Quoted: The Pink Door - Italian-American Restaurant & Cabaret Lounge - Seattle, Washington. Located in Pike Place Market. Enjoy outdoor dining on our deck with spectacular views of the Puget Sound.

Checking this place out on Sunday - looking forward to it! Sri, saw you had a decent experience there and I do want to go someplace other than Le Pichet...

Quoted: The menu draws heavily on traditional French fare, including a complex and satisfying onion soup and a decadent chicken liver parfait. Mussels, a popular main course, are cooked with sparkling wine, cream, parsley and hunks of bacon.

Ooooh, I must investigate - this place claims to be a true East Coast deli!

Quoted: A true East coast deli in Seattle? You bet! The Other Coast Café, with two locations, one nestled between hip new and old shops on Ballard Avenue and a second new location in downtown Seattle at Union Square, offers some of the best Deli Sandwiches in town.

Yay, time for the UDistrict Street Fair!

Quoted: For 39 years the University District StreetFair has been the kick-off event for the festival season in the Seattle region.

Writing an article about this...

Quoted: Scholar/activist Raj Patel, a former policy analyst with Food First who has been on the frontlines of public protest (tear-gassed on four continents), is here with a vital, internationally-praised book on globalization and food, Stuffed and Starved: The Hidden Battle for the World Food System.
